At this place, in 1934 is where John Dillinger, Public Enemy #1 watched his last film "Manhattan Melodrama". Melvin Purvis and other agents stationed outside were ready to get him. Once Dillinger exited he walked toward the alley and Purvis called out. Dillinger reached for his gun when he was shot 2 times. He fell on to the ground and died shortly thereafter a few feet away from the entrance of the theater which still stands.

where did you find that out? He got gunned down by Melvin Purvis in 1934.

Dillinger actually died of a Heart Attack in 1957.
