...contrary, they were hideous, violent hoods, who, as Dillinger says, "gave gangsters a bad name." Several gimmicks in Dillinger were lifted straight out of Bonnie and Clyde, beginning with the use of the song "We're in the Money" sung over the credits. Dillinger tries to be more factual, but turns out to be just as artificial. There is a scene between Dillinger and Billie on a wide stretch of plain with huge clouds rolling by that could have been done with the same footage used in a scene in Bonnie and Clyde where Beatty and Dunaway roll...

...former professor of Greek and Latin as well as Scripture, is no simple fundamentalist; like other orthodox Missouri Synod theologians, he believes that some parts of the Bible are poetic or symbolic-such as the Book of Revelation. But he also believes that what the Bible presents as factual is factual, and he holds what could be called a theological domino theory: if a man denies the Red Sea story, his son may come to deny the Resurrection...

But, he concluded, "the conduct of the Government precludes the fair, dispassionate resolution of these issues by a jury. The totality of the circumstances of this case offends a 'sense of justice.'

Kilson's distress at the delayed publication was in no way lessened by either the Bulletin's concern about factual errors in his piece, or its editors' wish to honor the black students' request to answer the serious charges he leveled at their intellectual ability, mental stability and basic integrity.
