Michael Mann's New Deal
Interesting article up over at Creative Review about the type used in Michael Mann's upcoming Dillinger flick Public Enemies (trailer here).
The designers focussed on the depression-era styling of FDR's Works Progress Administration and came up with a whole new font, title 'New Deal'.
"The interesting thing is that the posters were not always completed by professional designers, so occasionally the typefaces and typography are quite crude and unrefined."
