I want Hoover in Washington directly.

Tell him we have reason to believe...

...that Dillinger is in the

Biograph theatre at present...

...and that I'm taking appropriate

action without aid of local police.

This one is ours alone.

We'll try to take him inside

the theatre or outside.

Whichever one presents the

least risk to bystanders.

Tell him this time I'm going to get him.

Alright now, men, this is it.

Some of you were in law school

when I started chasing this one.

So let's do it and do it right.

Pistols only. We can't touch him in there,

there's too many people.

Now when he comes out of there,

he'll be with a woman dressed in red.

When I make positive identification,

I'll light my cigar.

Woman in red, lit cigar.

That's your man.

Remember, wait for my cigar.

Is that clear?

Johnny.

No. No.

Get the police. Get the police.

What's going on here?

Break it up. Break it up.

Back off. On your way.

Dillinger was a rat...

...that the country may consider

itself fortunate to be rid of.

And I don't sanction any Hollywood

glamorisation of these vermin.

This type of romantic mendacity...

...can only lead young people further

astray than they are already.

And I want no part of it.
