## Description

From Terence Winter (Emmy®-winning writer on HBO's The Sopranos ) and Oscar®-winning director Martin Scorsese, Boardwalk Empire is set in Atlantic City in 1920 at the dawn of Prohibition. The series chronicles the life and times of Enoch Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi), the city treasurer whose double role as politician and bootlegger makes him the city's undisputed czar at a time when illegal alcohol has opened up highly lucrative opportunities for rumrunners and distributors. In a city defined by notorious backroom politics and vicious power struggles, Nucky must contend with ambitious underlings, relentless Feds, rival gangsters -- including Arnold Rothstein, Lucky Luciano and Al Capone -- and his own appetite for women, profits, and power. In fine (and bloody) style, HBO's Boardwalk Empire returns to 1920 when the ban on booze led to a syndicate of bootleggers and smugglers. Created by Sopranos scribe Terence Winter and coproduced by director Martin Scorsese, the story centers on Atlantic City treasurer Enoch "Nucky" Thompson (Steve Buscemi), who schemes in private while preaching temperance in public (Mark Wahlberg and Tim Van Patten also serve as producers). Jimmy (Michael Pitt, Buscemi's Delirious costar), a war veteran, acts as his right-hand man, while zealous Agent Van Alden (Michael Shannon) and refined mobster Arnold Rothstein ( A Serious Man 's Michael Stuhlbarg) represent significant threats to his enterprise. Nucky's other associates include his sheriff brother Eli (Shea Whigham), sexpot girlfriend Lucy (Paz de la Huerta), and distributor Chalky ( The Wire 's Michael K. Williams). If Nucky has little regard for law and order, his soft side emerges in his dealings with Irish immigrant Margaret (Kelly Macdonald, excellent), who segues from abused wife to kept woman. As Nucky puts it, "I try to be good. I really do." After he sends Jimmy away a spell, his sidekick joins forces with Al Capone (Stephen Graham, Public Enemies ) and disfigured vet Richard Harrow (Jack Huston), abandoning his son, common-law wife Angela (Aleksa Palladino), and mother Gillian (Gretchen Mol), who has a fling with Lucky Luciano (Vincent Piazza). Inspired by Nelson Johnson's book, Boardwalk Empire takes a Deadwood -like approach to history by combining characters both factual and fictional with blue language and ladies without brassieres. Winter, who won an Emmy for The Sopranos episode Pine Barrens , takes liberties with the historical record, but the series never claims to represent the truth and nothing but--which is only fitting when everyone's hiding secrets. If the entire ensemble deserves praise, Buscemi rules the show as thoroughly as Nucky rules the city. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Review: 1920s Gangster Fiction/History Lesson - Thus far, this is an excellent series. I had heard of it before and even watched an episode or two on HBO. However, I had no idea what was going on in the story. It is that type of series, but I love that type since the longer you watch, the more rewarded you feel. I have always been a fan of the gangster story and this one fits quite nicely. It is 1920 and prohibition has just been passed. Steve Buscemi(always reliable in anything) plays Nucky Thompson, the treasurer of Atlantic City. The new law only provides him and his cohorts with the ability to charge more for precious liquor which will be all on the black market now. As you can imagine, chaos ensues from the sides of the law as well as criminal enemies. Oh this is very much a history lesson as well. Nucky Thompson was a real gangster in the 1920s which boggles my mind since I had never heard about him. Also on the cast of mugs is a young Al Capone, Myer Lansky, Charlie "Lucky" Luciano and Arnold Rothstein. There is a black crime boss named Chalky White, but I found out he was based on the boxer Albert "Chalky" Wright. But let me tell you. White like all the characters on here, has many layers and is always fun to watch. As for the time period, I think I prefer the 1940s to the 1920s. However, the era is the perfect backdrop for this show. It's almost like watching New Jersey about a hundred years before the Sopranos took it over. While much has changed, the rackets were always there. The acting is all spot on and these characters will get a reaction out of you either way. I am hooked and will definitely order the rest of the seasons!
Review: Great purchase - This wasexcellent quality & purchase. I real enjoy The Roaring Twenties films and TV shows. I handed planned on this purchase. But sorry I waited for rainy day. Very entertaining my next purchase will be the complete series. Excellent color great sound quality. Even on my 2012 Sony Bravia 60"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Period Piece
*by A***L on September 5, 2024*

I have nothing but praise for this series. It is dramatic, well-written and researched. There are always refreshing moments of humor furnished by the incredible Steve Buscemi. He keeps surprising me by his range of acting skill and abilities. I especially was drawn in by the clothes/costumes. They really did a deep dive and covered this in an exceptional manner. Boardwalk Empire is a Winner.
