On This Day in History…

Seventy years ago yesterday, to quote the famous musical philosopher Rob Gordon, “John Dillinger was shot dead behind that theatre in a hail of FBI gunfire. You know who tipped ‘em off? His fucking girlfriend. And he just wanted to go to the movies.”

The New York Times is running a very interesting piece on the interest Dillinger still holds with the American public.
