    About the TV Series:
    Boardwalk Empire is an American period crime drama television series created by Terence Winter and broadcast on the premium cable channel HBO. The series is set chiefly in Atlantic City, New Jersey, during the Prohibition era of the 1920s and stars Steve Buscemi as Nucky Thompson. Winter, a Primetime Emmy Award-winning screenwriter and producer, created the show, inspired by Nelson Johnson's 2002 non-fiction book Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City, about the historical criminal kingpin Enoch L. Johnson.
    The pilot episode was directed by Martin Scorsese and produced at a cost of $18 million. On September 1, 2009, HBO picked up the series for an additional 11 episodes. The series premiered on September 19, 2010, and its five-season run of 56 episodes ended on October 26, 2014.
    Boardwalk Empire received widespread critical acclaim, particularly for its visual style and basis on historical figures, as well as for Buscemi's lead performance. The series received 57 Primetime Emmy Award nominations, including two for Outstanding Drama Series, winning 20. The series also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series - Drama in 2011 and two Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series in 2011 and 2012.

      In real life, Nucky Thompson would have been killed by Harrow right after he killed Jimmy. Harrow was loyal, but as usual the writers wrote themselves into a corner. Jimmy should have gone out differently, maybe in a shootout with Manny Horvitz the Butcher.

    • @LordZaayl
      @LordZaayl 9 місяців тому

      @@mistersinister2043 Jimmy's death was a last minute decision from what I've heard. The actor was apparently a huge dick behind the scenes so they quickly wrote him out of the show. From a narrative standpoint with what was happening in that season and Jimmy's character arc to that point, his death being on Nucky's order is the only thing that worked thematically, anything else would have felt lackluster and underwhelming.
      The season also quickly establishes that Jimmy was suicidal due to the trauma from his mother, as opposed to being overly-ambitious like he had been established as in season 1. He went to france to die, but managed to survive so he instead began taking insane risks and going against powerful people, obviously not caring about his own well-being. It was all or nothing with Jimmy. So it gave them a reasonable out that Harrow understood that Jimmy did it to himself and Nucky/Eli were just the noose he chose to hang himself with. Its a little sloppy, but what can you do when suddenly having to write one of the main characters out of the show.
      Also, this one is my own opinion and interpretation, but I got the feeling as that season went on that Harrow was starting to realize that Jimmy wasn't a good person, he was prone to violence with little provocations and very manipulative to people around him. He was an absentee dad and a bad husband to a wife that clearly never wanted to be with him in the first place (While yeah, she cheated on him, they were barely a couple and he fucked off to a war, never writing home. She assumed he was dead, or abandoned her and never planned to come home.) Like, I don't even know if Jimmy even considered Harrow a friend, or if every word Jimmy said was just to manipulate Harrow to do his dirty work for him (As Jimmy never has to return the favor, so we never see his friendship through actual actions.) Harrow even seems to suspect this, that Jimmy might see him as nothing more than another Lackey, asking him "Would you fight for me?" but Jimmy's response may just have been to placate Harrow and keep him in line, but we will never know as Jimmy never gets the opportunity to prove it.

      It goes beyond being a trained soldier. There are many. What makes people like this character so formidable is their absolute lack of fear or moral conflict as a result of whatever they've experienced earlier in life. That keeps them cool, analytic, calculating and free of emotion. Take that out of a man and couple it with ability, and you have someone virtually unstoppable.

But even then, if he was an experienced sniper he'd probably be able to guess range by the size of the target and would naturally aim high for longer ranges.

They are tughs ruling with fear and violence over people that cannot defend themself, when a warrior shows up the get sloughtered.

    That unwavering and overpowering desire to reclaim the closest person he had to family. Harrow would've killed a thousand to retrieve Tommy. Notice how when Richard tells Tommy to close his eyes, he does so instantly without hesitation. Complete trust. How one knows at the end of things, Tommy loved the man. When Harrow dies unceremoniously under the pier, I think it was the only time in the show a tear rolled down my cheek. He deserved better, but it does add realism to the story. 'Fair' isn't something that exists.

He doesn't speak, he walks quiet, he would be considered the real life boogeyman.
    Edit:
    Apparently some people have a hard time with reading comprehension and with what I wrote. I am fully aware the kid that's in this scene obviously knows him well and isnt afraid. What I meant was, IMAGINE one of, let's say the gangsters nephews or sons were staying the night there and then all this goes down. You have never met this man and all you see is him wearing half a face and he's soaked in blood whilst nailing each shot with no problem into each of the occupants brains or chest cavity and literally walking quiet as a a mouse, and you think for the rest of your life, you try to make sense of what that man was, since he looks like a creature to a child's mind. It would be like they witnessed a Boogeyman and that kid would tell that story everyday til the end of his days, and then his friends would tell it because it would be in the newspapers. That should be clear enough for anyone, even with the simplest of brains to understand now, right?

He's referencing his thumb and barrel to place shots. His firing position is what we call retention today. Point and shoot cqc tactics for clearing confined trenches translates very well to indoor use of the rifle. Which for the period was mostly bolt action. You can't just take the optic off either. There's no weaver/Pic rails, it's machined in. You should also know as a "marksman", that falling back to your secondary, instead of reloading your primary, is incredibly dangerous and situational and not recommended unless under extreme circumstance. Your "ample knowledge" is quite lacking in ways people who are actually trained with weapons, would not be. Easily derived from your own statements, is your casual observers perspective on guns and their usage. Nothing more. If you do not know, do not speak.

      First some of them probably didnt have their gun on them and had to go get it. Most of them were just confused on what was happening and who was shooting who from where and shooting a gun while moving is really hard and if you actually dont know what youre doing you arent gonna hit nothing. One of the most important things too. They all went under cover cause they thought it was multiple attackers so it made Harrow's job easier. They one thing from the guy who was going to shoot him and got hit on the head was a little dumb yeah but it was for the sake show but this is far more realistic than any other shooting scene in a show or movie

    Though not fully realistic ofc. It does add realism that Harrow was saved by the fact that the gangsters automatically assumed it was a full scale assault by many people. Spreading out and taking defensive positions. If they had known it was only him they would have gotten him rather easy. Surprise and panic plays a role but more importantly - they immediately acted on the premise there were multiple attackers. Which went heavily in Harrow's favor.
