The irony too is that Paul only respected Richard after Richard showed that he had the same killer instinct to protect his family like Paul did. Paul wasn't really a bad person, and I think that showed in his response to getting manhandled by Richard. A lesser man would have taken it out on his family, but Paul realized in that moment how sincere Richard's feelings for his daughter were. By the end, Paul is talking to Richard like his own son-in-law and Richard seems to really love Paul in spite, or maybe because of, them coming to blows. It's an amazing character arc for the two of them
He wouldn't have hurt Paul unless Paul actually hurt Tommy or Julia but he wouldn't. He was just drunk and upset. I think Paul actually helped Richard and Richard helped Paul. They would sit awake at night and talk for hours. It was a thing of honor between former soldiers.
@@simle6010 Richard was trained (very well) to kill people...not fight them at Princeton bareknuckle boxing night. and then one morning as Papa Paul emerged from his drunken slumber only to find his daughter entertaining Richard. Papa Paul soon experience a near death experience. something i doubt he'd pay a dime to see!
That's great character development. Went from hating the guy and calling him a side show freak to at the end saying "you dont come home looking like that" Her dad actually changed his mind about him and that's pretty good character writing considering how their relationship started
I was so happy to see Paul on the porch when Richard, in his death, joined the family he never had in his life. Two troubled characters finally made peace in one of the saddest and most cathartic scenes ever shown on television. It's amazing that you are a part of that moment, Mark!
I liked the part in that scene when Julia looked at her father asking if it was ok for her to go to Richard, and he nodded affirmatively with a smile, finally giving Julia and Richard his blessing and accepting them as a couple and especially accepting Richard as part of his family.
You can tell that Paul respected Richard from the start. After the massacre in the Artemis Club he takes in the boy and has Julia put him in his dead son's old room (the same room he got angry at Tommy for playing in during Easter).
Not really. He killed for money and didn't know why sometimes. Didn't care. At one point, he said he killed 67 men. After that, went on to kill about a dozen or two more. He was a good man to those he loved and who loved him, sure, but he wasn't going to heaven when he died.
"The first rule of Fisticuffs Club is You can talk about Fisticuffs Club all you want. I mean, this is the '20s, for fuck's sake. We can get away with murder. Literally."
Oh man when he asks “or what?!” and without hesitation Richard tells him he’ll kill him and 100% means it, the look in his eyes says “I fucked with the wrong dude”
Goddamn it bums me out that Harrow got such a shitty ending. Out of all the characters on this show, he deserved happiness, to raise little homie up right and fulfill his promise to Jimmy and Angela, the right way. Instead of the way everything ended.
The show is very good at capturing just how veterans were treated back then, especially by people of the upper class. There was no glorification of being a soldier. In most peoples eyes it just meant you were born poor.
AA Sharp if no other show has shot on film since then B E is literally the last show to shoot on film. And it remains that way until another show does Is English your second language?
Tremendous acting here! I knew paul was a good man despite his rough edges. The scene where richard delivers the kid and paul says you don't come home like this gets me every time
We still come home and are treated like freaks. Some of are scars are uglier and aren’t so easy for everyone to see. Sometimes it’s easier to explain a scar to someone then your behavior. People just think in terms of good and bad. There is no such thing as a good person or a bad one. It’s what they do in situations. There humanity when facing death.
Never understood why they mocked Richard throughout the show fir his injuries....he served his country. I thought returning soldiers were treated well at the time like Jimmy Darmody was.
Hey Mark Borkowski, why did you cut off the fight scene? That guy beat the living fuck outta you after he got back up, all due respect. Anyhow, great performance :)
I don’t like the way Hollywood portrayed Mr. Harrow. He was very skilled, but a man that doesn’t respect what his wife’s father ask of him depletes him from being a real man. There was other ways he could of earned his respect. What he did here ruined everything.
Mark borowski i was watching an old episode of dexter trinity killer. You were coming out of gay bar and best up John litgow. Was that you. Dexter season 4 I believe.
“You don’t come home like this.” Paul had finally accepted Richard 😢
Yup. That scene was a true punch in the stomach. If I remember correctly Richard died soon after.

Mr. Harrow definitely had the makings of a varsity athlete.

Out of everyone in the show, Harrow had the highest morals and grounds for his actions.
Not really. He killed for money and didn't know why sometimes. Didn't care. At one point, he said he killed 67 men. After that, went on to kill about a dozen or two more. He was a good man to those he loved and who loved him, sure, but he wasn't going to heaven when he died.
Also killed a 10yr old d allesio brother
@@tobe1207 The kid acted like an adult and suffered the consequences like one.
@@tobe1207 he offered to kill the mother too like it was nothing.
Mark you were great as Paul! The way he embraced Richard as a son-in-law was beautiful.
Thanks, Sam. It was a great show to work on.

I thought Mark Borkowski did a tremendous job with this role.
I'm glad he came around. I think he respected richard & just needed to measure the man he was.
And in the end they were friends.

Well yes other than the whole cold blooded killer thing 😀
@ least True Romance♥️gives us that 😊
You can be a good ring fighter but it’s different when someone’s an actual killer...

Richard Harrow, the embodiment of post-war veterans and a true testament to lives good men live without ever being noticed.
The show is very good at capturing just how veterans were treated back then, especially by people of the upper class. There was no glorification of being a soldier. In most peoples eyes it just meant you were born poor.
You’re a damm fine actor man. You perfectly portray a look of “I just fucked up” with no words.
my favorite actor in Boardwalk empire..great job!
The casting directors for this show were geniuses.
fight nites tomorrow pops!
Still come back to this!!! Great performance
I worked on B E for every Season. Those Set's were like no other. Also the last TV Show to Shoot on Actual FIlm and not Digital.
@AA Sharp haha exactly

I would pay for that a dollar
Loved your performance in Boardwalk! Amazing job!
Mark had a enlightening 360 with his time with Richard…….
Almost a tear jerker with their last scene together.
180, unless you mean he was right were he started. 540 works too if you want to be overly dramatic, but not 720. 😁

all 3 are sad characters, and feel bad for little boy.
You are a great actor sir. Three cheers
Man you nailed that role
My favorite character
Some great scenes in a show that in very many minds is one of the top-3 or top-5 series created. That's remarkable.
That was super realistic. Some families are dysfunctional and fights happen but they are family in the end.
Absolutely incredible performance. You are a stellar actor. Would love to pick your brains one day!
That’s some solid acting!
Best character arc ever!
Superb performance!
A great show.
Two great characters!
Nice work.

Mark borkowski? More like kick buttowski.
Harrow wasn't the dude to fuck with. War was living rent free in his head at all times!
I've seen war veterans lash out. Not pretty either.
Brilliant Acting !!
So that's what was under the mask.
Good job Mark. You played your role well.
Richard is alpha
someones insecure
People who say af or lmfao have only touched one vagina in their lives: their mother's.
af is alright I guess, but lmfao needs to fuck off
A gentleman phsycopath
Great acting sir. I hated you in this. 👏 fantastic work.
"let go of him or I'll kill you"
it was in that moment Mark knew: he fucked up
"would you pay a dime...to see this?" that's some joker shit.
Amazing acting Mark thank you so much for sharing.
Hey look it's mark boarkowski
Dude was redpilled AF
Apologize.
I'm sorry.
Not to me; to her.
(Very reminiscent of Curly, in "City Slickers")
we saw Mark take 10 hits to the face at the start, and you can see he knew Richard was gonna kill him with one hand. Damn.
Bad writing
This is my Dream Business. You pick a fight and test your might! and buy a few drinks before the fight night. Impressed.

Especially considering the value of a dime in today's society aswell as the existence of the internet

chilling
Harrow was the definition of a real G. No one even came close to him
Mark - You played this role amazing. While its a small part, I find it quite meaningful. Kudos sir!
Both the writers and the actor did a tremendous job with such a minute bit of time/role
Great job Mark. Great character, greatest show.
So much like my fucking dad :(
Mr.Harrow IS the varsity athlete
He burried the good man deep inside him, but he came through.
Richard was the best character in the show
Would you pay a dime to see this? Lol
TO HER!!! === 💯🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠
