History

The shoot took three days to complete and involved a number of scenes inside the former Sheriff's House and jail. Johnny Depp was on the set for all three days and stayed late into the evenings on each night to shake hands with hundreds of fans who stood for hours to see him and the film shoot. This new court house, known as the 'Grand Old Lady', was built in the center of town and would become the dominant feature of Crown Point (further additions to this courthouse would be made from 1907-1928). Due mainly to her efforts, there is no mention of the "Great Escape" to be found anywhere in the city, save for a brief mention on a National Register of Historic Places plaque outside the old Sheriff's house. Christian Bale will play FBI agent Purvis, and Johnny Depp will play Dillinger.
