Laur Trueman contributed an insightful article to Worthpoint, detailing her specialized work in movie props, including her significant role on the film Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp.
In the piece, Trueman revealed how she sourced the guns used in the film, a process known in the industry as providing "smalls."
Worthpoint, the platform featuring her insights, is owned by her longtime friend and esteemed dealer, William Seippel.
In the article she says, "One of the more interesting projects I worked on was for the film “Public Enemies,” starring Johnny Depp as John Dillinger. My job was to find guns that would suit the era, as well as other sundry props that would work well with the colors of the scenery and, of course, look realistic and true to the era and setting. My first order of business was finding the weapons that the actors would be using in the movie. The production house was not looking for real guns, but for toy guns. They said toy guns would translate onto film better than the real McCoy!" - Laura Rene Marks-Trueman
