    Life lessons. There are so many I can take from Tommy.
    I sometimes cry remembering the show. But why? I don't cry often.
    The show gets to the deepest parts of me. Peaky Blinders tell us:
    - what all people/society would be like if no humans were afraid of death, like those who came back from war
    - what a raw, honest human psyche/consciousness is like after severe PTSD (Tom, Arthur...)
    - what is a real cost (suicide, permanent fear, no sleep, traumatic loses, restless life, alcohol, drugs...) of a true ambition to suceed by force
    - what a path to success and status requires from us to do, feel and thnk. And why not many of us will become super sucessfull. The key to the guaranteed success requires high intelligence, ability to spy on enemies, ability to punish (mentally as well as physically) and incentivise everyone around you (friends, enemies, family...)
    - the pain and loneliness that comes with highest of ambitions snd status
    Also, the most interesting people are the contrasting ones. Tom's and Arthur's characters - their rutlessness vs search for God (Arthur) and good (Tom) in their lifes.
    That is what I think makes me learn and even cry if I think too much about the show.

    Jason Statham is a great action movie actor, but he would never have reached the emotional depth and "cerebralness" of the character the way Cillian Murphy did. Brilliant!
    The confrontational dialogs were amazing! Just think the romantic dialogs could have been a bit more intense...
    Aunt Polly was a great feminine role played masterfully!
    Congrats also to Tom Hardy for the delinquency portraid as Alfie Solomon...

    Why is Paul Anderson who plays Arthur so magnificently never mentioned in UA-cam videos about Peaky Blinders and it's characters. Cillian Murphy, who I love, never mentions him when discussing how great the characters are. Paul Anderson may have been accused of misconduct but it's wrong to neglect to praise him for the six seasons he played Arthur, one of the best characters in the show. He may have been accused of misconduct but I don't see that was proven. Besides what does his real life have to do with his reel life. Plenty of actors have done terrible things in their lives but continue to act and be praised. Profoundly upset about his omission.

      Arthur , the character was badly treated by the writer Knight. He was never developed and was a one note that only existed to prop up Tommy's story. After awhile it just gets boring.That was not the fault of the actor- only Tommy , Polly and Alfie were well written. Lizzie was a ridiculous plotline, I still can't understand how Knight just ignored that Lizzie was the cause of Grace and John's murder- couldn't watch that storyline - it was so ridiculous.

    I disagree with Cillian on the point of life lessons. Tommy's vice was addiction (what kind? If you know you know). That's why he had to cheat. I cannot forget the scene where he had a lady in bed while speaking to his wife, Lizzie, about their child. It made me hate him quite strongly.
    But I would take life lessons from him. He had taste. He had an understanding that nothing meant anything in this world. But you still have to have a whole lot of nothing. That's why, he couldn't rest. Resting was falling beneath nothing, where even vacuum does not exist.
    What is a world worth, where the heinous always win? How does a good man survive in such a world? I guess they do in the hope of grace.

      Yes and that's a bit illogical because he wouldn't have achieved what he achieved prior to season 6 if he wasn't cold and ruthless. The way Tommy was portrayed in the last season is how he should've been during the entire story had he been a real person.
