After filming scenes for "Public Enemies," Depp freely spent time with throngs of admirers who showed up and by most accounts the actor made quite an impression, The Gary (Ind.) Post-Tribune reported Saturday.

"He's really nice," 14-year-old Haley Bunde said of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star. "It's really nice for the young kids. He bent down and shook their hands, and he didn't skip a group. He went down the whole line."

Depp reportedly would shake hands and sign autographs for hundreds of fans following each day's shooting schedule and made extra time for his younger supporters, the newspaper said.

Clearly acting against his apparent personality, Depp is portraying notorious bank robber John Dillinger in "Enemies."
