At first I though he was Eastern European, but on listening to it further it sounds like he is Irish. The dialog is obviously scripted and doesn't sound like what an auto mechanic would say.
This is more like a screen test for a Hollywood picture - I mean he is the best recounter ive ever seen. lol however he nevers says what the agents or proposed gangsters as he though did after they shot him...
I forgot about this video until someone replied to an old comment of mine (which i can't even find now, so it must have been a long time ago.) So I watched the video again, and at 1:05 I swear the guy says he works at "Billy-Bob's Garage"! lol
Although he sounds like Borat to us, despite the lingering European accent he's speaking with what was considered proper diction in the 1930's. Sounds pretentious now, but if you watch old movies of "society" people you'll hear it. Tomato=Toe-mah-toe!

Silly as this appears to be on the face of it--obviously this guy's talents were being wasted as a garage mechanic--you gotta give him credit for one thing at least: he
He may have been coached, but he did pronounce the name correctly not as in the 3 part documentary. I am from mooresville and know relatives of dillinger that say it is pronounced as in this video correctly.
this borat was reading his speech. look at his eyes going right to left again and again. he looks like one of the alien (mailman) in men in black 1st part. lol!
He's definitely Irish born by that accent (I'm Irish and some of the older generation speak just like that). And by the way his eyes are darting from left to right it seems that he's reading from a script.
@yogi1707 do you know anything about the history of Chicago or American history? if you did, you'd know this is way too intelligent for Hollywood. how far america has fallen, sadly
he is reading; he is highly literate; i believe he is reflective of the type of person who lived in chicago at the time; the type of immigrant, that is literate, thoughtful, highly capable. this report is a testament to the man's intelligence and to American society at the time
Say what you want but this man has an accent, yet puts his words and sentences together better than most people who were born here....including me! ha!
it is fascinating to see a video from that era. What a very interesting accent this guy has! A little bit theatrical, like as if he's on a Saturday Night Live skit!!!!
He didnt write this speech, someone wrote it for him..There is no way he is this educated in the english language, shit he just arrived in this country 5 yrs ago @ the most, and hes a grease monkey for god sake..Nothing against grease monkeys but im sure hes not your class valedictorian!!..Oh btw he looks inbred too lmao!!!
@dasmackman I'm the one that showed acts131 your comment and he was literally rolling on the floor laughing. LOL yes it was very funny LOL! Thanx a lot
I really think hes got scotish accent which was very common since they immigrated in loads to the USA back then, it is very shallow call him borat plus he must had been a witness by the way he's telling the story, i suppose one has to detail the entire scene and what one was doing to be credited and not to contradict oneself!
@andrewgbarlow I think that the probability is high that he was coached to say what he did. You can tell from his body language and by his his speech. Very few people don't pause to recall events. The way he described the events makes me wonder. I don't know, but I hold this "interview" highly suspect.
I appreciate him telling his story and he actually came here to work in the greatest country in the world no matter who you are. He took the time to get a job and to learn to speak English the best he could.
has anyone seen the FBI footage of the actual shooting at the theatre? They had a camera setup, they were so sure they were going to get him. I remember seeing it as a kid, it does exist.
What nationality do you figure this guy was before he immigrated? ...hmmm....Italian?...lol!... It doesn't sound like English was his first language. But he's doing a good job speaking English for an immigrant.
i agree! He is not speaking as a newcomer. He is using very big words,they may be scripted,because they are very descriptive..i.e."blood gushing out"!He could have come here as a child.What a story to tell the folks back home!,
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The Evil White Capitalist Class created Dillinger. If he had an opportunity for a job and a career he would never have had a life of crime.
Lesson learned here: The Evil White Jewish Capitalist Ruling class will demoralize and Debase you if it suits their needs. The trick is NOW to kill THEM and not to turn to a life of crime.
If we KILL the Wall Street Terrorists and the Wealth Mongering Ruling Class...then we will not have to turn to crime like Dillinger had too.
@PaulDougouba. Capitalism is what has kept the United States as wealthy as it has been. Every type of economic system has it's problems but capitalism is better than living in a communist/socialist nation. You're an official idiot, if you don't like America's Capitalism, go to freaking Cuba.
Newsreels of the time did this! He was with in 10 miles of the shooting, so interview him!!! Hey, he's talking out his butt??? So what!!! The audience will love it!!!
I love how buddy thinks that since Dillinger is dying (from gunshots), instead of grabbing rags or towels, he thinks to grab a glass of water for him. Cotton mouth wasn't taken lightly back in the day, I guess...
hey this is history, there are millions of immigrants no point in downing this man, thank you man for being there and saying what happen, JD didnot utter a sound, absolute gangster.
What's amazing is this guy is a working class immigrant, and English is his second language. He still has a better vocabulary and grammar than some of the dimwits who post on this video, making fun of the way he talks without the intelligence to understand the context of the 1930's.
Exactly. Here's an immigrant during the depression that not only spoke better english than certain idiots these days, but didn't mind busting his ass at whatever job he could find, or mind working all night. Screw his critics, which there isn't any reason to criticize, he was just telling what he saw, and it was dark and happened fast.
fuckin rite he would!!!what a fuckin eejit fuck nugget prick to have talkin about u!!!a hate folk like that! r.i.p dillinger,the banks have fucked us again now as they did then!!if u can get by in this world,respectfuly without killing people and outwith the system,good on you!fuck the legal gangsters,politicians etc!fuck the system!!
What are you talking about? Somehow youve managed to confuse yourself really good here.
I watch video of man mocking dillingers death, i say dillinger would have shot him. You for some reason comment and say hed kill me and than you tell me something gay like smoking a gun barrel or something. Now this? Youre an idiot, just fuck off.
Youre arent very good at figuring shit out. And youre still an idiot. Stop pretending you know whats going on. Be a man and go back to having sex with who ever that dude you call your husband is.
I don't think they had teleprompters back then. Cue cards?...Absolutely! Whatever he's reading it clearly isn't coming from the top of his head. He might have told his story to a reporter and the reporter rewrote the story to be more newsy and sensational. He said he heard two shots but officially Dillinger was shot at four times at least. ( Four bullet holes found in the body ) Police reports say he was shot on the street and ran into the alley where he collapsed. This guy is full of crap!
My mom remembers that night, my mom and grandma use to live near by on Lincoln Ave. and were coming home and saw that there was a group of onlookers lingering about. by the Biograph Theatre. They were saying that dillinger was shot . It's kinda funny in a way that now my mom lives in WIS. 12 miles away from Little Bohemia (located in manatowich waters Wis) I drive by that place evertime I visit and think of the gun fire that went on. The bullet holes are still there.
it does sound like he is just reading a story... like he was told exactly what to say. not that he was stupid, but not many people could speak so clearly on film about something like that!
agreeing with some of the comments below, I too am some what confused as to how this man is behaving. He's providing an account of what should have been a very violent scene. Yet he has a nonchalant posture and speaks not only eloquently, but perfectly- no stuttering or stops what-so-ever. And so it appears to not be so real. I've given testimony on things and it takes me atleast seconds to recall things. BUt this man talks as if he's seeing a film of the event in his own head- i'm just saying!
look at his eyes he probally got paid to give his testimony he his reading off a que card and he clearly has some type of accent that isnt american i find that most immagants speak very properly and its due to the reading material they learn to read from. like taking spanish in school its proper spanish and nobody i know speaks very proper like the guy in the video unless your very wealthy and educated or you were taught to speak english,

He'd shoot you in the ass, sonny.
Dillinger had some principle. you seem to have none.

What are you talking about? Somehow youve managed to confuse yourself really good here.
I watch video of man mocking dillingers death, i say dillinger would have shot him. You for some reason comment and say hed kill me and than you tell me something gay like smoking a gun barrel or something. Now this? Youre an idiot, just fuck off.

He wasn't mocking Dillinger. So don't use that as an excuse. You asanine fuckwit.
Take the bullet and be a man.

Didn't dillinger write a letter to Henry Ford thanking him on the fast automobiles he made.

That was Clyde Barrow. The letter was complimenting the V-8. Car museums often have copies of the letter.

I didn't know they had such good video back then.

I don't think they had teleprompters back then. Cue cards?...Absolutely! Whatever he's reading it clearly isn't coming from the top of his head. He might have told his story to a reporter and the reporter rewrote the story to be more newsy and sensational. He said he heard two shots but officially Dillinger was shot at four times at least. ( Four bullet holes found in the body ) Police reports say he was shot on the street and ran into the alley where he collapsed. This guy is full of crap!

My mom remembers that night, my mom and grandma use to live near by on Lincoln Ave. and were coming home and saw that there was a group of onlookers lingering about. by the Biograph Theatre. They were saying that dillinger was shot . It's kinda funny in a way that now my mom lives in WIS. 12 miles away from Little Bohemia (located in manatowich waters Wis) I drive by that place evertime I visit and think of the gun fire that went on. The bullet holes are still there.

it does sound like he is just reading a story... like he was told exactly what to say. not that he was stupid, but not many people could speak so clearly on film about something like that!

agreeing with some of the comments below, I too am some what confused as to how this man is behaving. He's providing an account of what should have been a very violent scene. Yet he has a nonchalant posture and speaks not only eloquently, but perfectly- no stuttering or stops what-so-ever. And so it appears to not be so real. I've given testimony on things and it takes me atleast seconds to recall things. BUt this man talks as if he's seeing a film of the event in his own head- i'm just saying!

look at his eyes he probally got paid to give his testimony he his reading off a que card and he clearly has some type of accent that isnt american i find that most immagants speak very properly and its due to the reading material they learn to read from. like taking spanish in school its proper spanish and nobody i know speaks very proper like the guy in the video unless your very wealthy and educated or you were taught to speak english,
