Starring JOHNNY DEPP as John Dillinger & Score By Elliot Goldenthal
Soundtrack features "Bye, Bye Blackbird" performed by DIANA KRALL
In the action-thriller Public Enemies, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Mann directs Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Academy AwardŽ winner Marion Cotillard in the story of legendary Depression-era outlaw John Dillinger (Depp) -- the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of J. Edgar Hoover's fledgling FBI and its top agent, Melvin Purvis (Bale), and a folk hero to much of the downtrodden public.

Soundtrack includes six tracks by Academy and Golden Globe Award winning composer Elliot Goldenthal and 8 interpolations of blues, jazz and standards. Elliot Goldenthal's work includes such film scores as Aliens 3, Batman Forever and the Academy Award winning Frida. Highlight of the soundtrack is a a newly recorded version of the standard "Bye, Bye, Blackbird" sung by the incomparable Diana Krall. Other interpolations are by contemporary bluesman Otis Taylor.

Music Tracks include:
"Bye Bye Blackbird" - performed by DIANA KRALL
"Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground" - performed by Blind Willie Johnson
"Love Me Or Leave Me," and "The Man I Love" - performed by Billie Holiday

Let's hope those 6 score cues are of a decent length....and as usual, Michael Mann delivers an interesting soundtrack.
