John Dillinger is coming back to Crown Point this spring as Johnny Depp dramatizes Dillinger’s 1934 jail escape scene from the Lake County Jail to be filmed for the upcoming move “Public Enemies” at the Old Sheriff’s House and Jail on Main Street.

Writes Molly Woulfe in the Northwest Indiana Times:

Dates for the Crown Point shoot are under wraps. But director Michael Mann has targeted the old Lake County Criminal Court, 220 S. Main St., as his headquarters during a three-day stay. Reborn the Hall of Justice Bar and Ballroom in the early 1990s, the jail’s neighbor will host up to 200 actors, crew members and technicians.
