FR. I can't believe how long it's been since this show aired. September 2010.... Damn near 15 years. I was staying with some people uninitiated to the incredible awesomeness of HBO series, and this was their introduction.
The people who made this series were PERFECTIONISTS - to the last detail everything fits...PERFECTLY!...starting from the impeccable dressing (love the fashion of the time, btw!) - to the acting and the Sicilian dialect. "Salvatò' ' ! ...ma che stai facendo accusì luntano da 'casa?" :) It's just...perfect!... :) You can even distinguish the Neapolitan of the "Chicago" Capone brothers from the Sicilian of the "New Yorkers" - Maranzano, Masseria, Lucania, etc.
@zek-csgo680 yeah, they did. Although Luciano caught some flak for saying he would sell his life story for a movie, at the last second he pulled it, and it became the book I read. In response Lansky sent him over ten million. He lived peacefully in Italy with a woman for a long time. He died because when he was delivering the script back, the policia thought it was code for heroin. He died of a heart attack at the airport. They defiantly had times of beef, but they always had eacbothers backs financially, which is really all that matters in the end. They both lived long lives.
@@thomaseukovich4818 no I think you read it wrong luciano nearly went broke in Italy he was used to his high life but the money which came across from US wasn't enough which made him mad and he wanted his book to be published and passed the script to his lawyer and said I might not live long but you gotta publish this after I die , something like that and Luciano also cursed frank Costello
Most underrated show is a understatement 😂 this show blows shows like Sopranos out of the water completely!!!!! The Wire is the only show that comes close to BE 💯
His accent and hand gestures made me really like his character in BE. I wish there would've been a spin off with Lucky and Meyer after the events of season 5.
Toby Honest I hear you. Yes I get it why you thought I was saying bad comparison on them not having that much money in real life. They very much had more money than anybody really. What I was saying is that comparing what they made to the president back then is not a good comparison because it wasn’t even close to each other. Their throwing around more money than the president makes in this day let along back then. I prob should have worded it better in my first comment.
@@PrettyPaintedRecords Every heard of respect? He already stated he should have worded it different. Does your daddy bully you so bad you have to pick on people on the internet and use the smallest verbal errors as your bait????
you're both being ridiculous with the accuracy issues. neither the scene nor their entire storyline are accurate. Nuckys last name isn't even thompson in real life.
This show made you really feel as if you were in the 20’s. It’s amazing.
I was 😮

i know!;) wuaaoo did you listten to the conversation of nucky and meyer? very ineresting!;) love this scence.;) well everything about it.;)
Are the Capone brothers from New York also?
@@jesseknerr529 yes
Are you familiar with the sicilian dialect?
@@jesseknerr529 yes they're all from Brooklyn
I'm reading the last testament of lucky Luciano. He gave his life story before he died. Incredible how these two had eachothers backs till death.
hahaha are you sure they had each other's back at the end ? lucky cursed lansky to let dry him off in italy

@@zek-csgo680maybe learn to use periods
Boardwalk Empire might be HBOs most underrated show ever.
I'll have to watch this, I never knew the massage business was this lucrative. Makes you wonder why he ever bothered to join Sopranos outfit.
Most underrated show is a understatement 😂 this show blows shows like Sopranos out of the water completely!!!!! The Wire is the only show that comes close to BE 💯
Buscemi is honestly just really bad as Nucky. Tried to watch it and loved every character except his and that whore Van Alden got pregnant
Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, SOA, Mr Robot
There are a ton of great shows out there @@maralinekozial9131
@@maralinekozial9131Yeah Boardwalk is definitely better than Sopranos imo
That fuck you from Luciano to Lansky as he walks out was delivered perfectly 🥰
Don't know how legit the Charlie Luciano story was but fuck everything from the delivery to the timing was spot on
Apparantly it is true
True..kinda
It’s true. Lansky, Luciano, and bugsy Siegel all went way back. I think Luciano met frank costello as a kid too
His accent and hand gestures made me really like his character in BE. I wish there would've been a spin off with Lucky and Meyer after the events of season 5.
I hear Tonino used to sell Toner Cartridges out the back of his Crown 'Vic
That was until that animal blundetto put six bullets in the kid without any provocation whatsoever
Laser Printers actually
@@305donkryder8 I'm fucking Rockford over here?
Auggy too... Dead a 49... He was a young man. A fuckin' baby.
@@joearnold5836 you though? You're an old man.
billy leotardo has had a colorful life ;)
He was coming at Tony egg with a chainsaw, Tony egg had a right to defend himself
8:31 my estimation of Meyer as a man just plummeted
You and tony google again huh?
Until you realize the president doesn't earn shit. lol
Officially, legally. Unofficially is a different story.
5:36 love that cut to "Charlie I come by for the cake" :D.
Luciano is smart clever brilliant true top criminal gangster
And respected
@@WillAnderson3rdYou mean reshpected
😂
Meyer was Top so clever ,smart
Luciano was top so clever smart brilliant
@@cloudkidghoul876 yeah but not when he was young , he was reckless unlike Meyer
I like to think Meyer had a degree of respect for Nucky (underneath the anger he had for the times he was close to executing him)
Amazing acting!
Always talking about my hood
I love Meyers story at the beginning ❤
This was really a movie about lucky and meyer
500k done. 48 hrs done. Throwing half a Mil around that easy? The president makes 400k now. Bad comparison
In real life they were both millionaires by the time they were 21, and this scene takes place a few years after that.

Mystic Mac back in their time the president probably made like 40k a year
Ever heard of inflation dumbfuck

Nucky should have wacked Meyer when he had the chance...
john doe meyer is a real character they can’t just kill him it will become inaccurate
@@a.f9578 I know...I was referring to in "In real life' assuming that scene is accurate...
you're both being ridiculous with the accuracy issues. neither the scene nor their entire storyline are accurate. Nuckys last name isn't even thompson in real life.
@@stevegee6494 I know its Johnson and I m also aware of the true storyline
The comment I was waiting for
No doubt.
Troat , lol.
It's a NY accent. Maybe you need to get out more
Yeah sure
...some actors, ha?...
