Boardwalk Empire - FretDancer - 04-03-2013
Just finished Season 3 of Boardwalk Empire a few days ago. Not as good and action pumped as the first two, but still really great. This show never seems to dissapoint, the acting, music, scenery, costumes and action is top notch.
Highly recommend watching all 3 seasons so far. For the ones who've seen the show, what are your thoughts?

Big fan here. Nucky Thompson is such a boss.

I like historical fiction, so I enjoyed it. (Even though I got rid of cable after 1st season.)
Interesting article if you're curious about the history:
"Differences Between Real Nucky Johnson and HBO's Nucky Thompson Go Beyond the Fictionalized Name"

Quote:Quote:
The real Nucky, who ruled Atlantic City from 1911 to 1941, was tall, muscular, imposing, a man who swam five or six days a week to keep in shape. Nucky Johnson weighed about 225 pounds and stood more than 6 feet tall. He had a voice to match his stature and used his physical presence to meet and mingle. And he always wore glasses.
On the other hand, Buscemi is not physically imposing. The actor has a high-pitched voice, stands just 5 feet, 8 inches tall, weighs under 150 pounds and is very slight. He never wears glasses, even when portrying Nucky.
"He's even tinier in person," said Judge Johnson, who has met the actor several times. He believes the producers wanted an actor who would not remind the audience of the bearish James Gandolfini, who played Tony Soprano in another memorable HBO crime series, The Sopranos.
[...]
The real Nucky liked socializing and living large, eating and drinking in Atlantic City's nightclubs and restuarants, freely spending, employing maids and drivers and tipping big as a matter of habit.

Mr Pink, the sole survivor from Reservoir Dogs, I just can't take him seriously, someone like Mr.Orange would have been perfect!

Yeah but you gotta admit that Buscemi plays his role really well. Regarding the character, he is a mastermind!
One of my favorite scenes, great acting by Chalky White and Purnsley actors:

First two season were epic, I feel the show is slightly dropping now.
