Columbus, Wisconsin picks up the pieces after Johnny Depp and Public Enemies
on 06/22/09 at 2:00 pm | It's been over a year since Universal Studios shot Public Enemies in my little town of Columbus, Wisconsin.

This historical gangster epic directed by Michael Mann and starring Johnny Depp as the infamous bank-robber John Dillinger was in the midst of a week-long shoot in the small Fox Valley city, the latest stop by the Universal Pictures production at numerous locations around the Badger State.

Hand shakes and hugs are shared all around, and then Depp looks towards us and tips his hat, waves and smiles. Then he's whisked away to start the shoot. And all is right with the world. | | Our man in Columbus: Prepping the town for Public Enemies with Johnny Depp
on 03/14/08 at 2:28 pm | Columbus is hopping with movie buffs from around the world. They wander the streets looking in all of the windows of the "new" shops which carry all of the latest products needed to survive and thrive back in 1933. The detail in the construction is truly amazing. And this is only the outside of the buildings. | | |
