Don't mistake my kindness for weakness. I am kind to everyone, but when someone is unkind to me, weak is not what you are going to remember about me. That is indeed the actual quote from Al Capone.
yeah, it's pretty much ok to beat the shit out of another man, 1 on 1, in the eyes of a gangster. But it's not ok to publicly humiliate him. And it's twice not ok when someone publicly humiliate your friend.
@all hail wilson if they both had their dukes up ready to dust and he lost; fair is fair. But attacking a man from behind and making fun of him all the while isn't a man taking care of business. Capone knew and decided to return the favor in kind. If there's no respect, there isn't anything
@@Firan25 I hope you realize , knocking someone out and death ain't too far. It ain't as easy to knock someone out in movies without harming them badly or killing them.

You should read "Uncle Al Capone". It's by Deirdre Marie Capone, Al's grandniece. And you'll love the story about the 2 teachers on vacation in Chicago. Had a flat tire, Al had his chauffer to fix it and let them sit with him. Then he told them "If you need anything give me a call." Then he gave them a business card that read Al Brown, Furniture salesman. Then they get back to the hotel and someone has stolen all of their money. They couldn't pay for the room. Called Mr. Brown and asked for some money and promised to pay him back. A couple of hours later the hotel manager knocks on the door and hands them an envelope full of money and said "Why didn't you tell me you know Al Capone." True story according to Deirdre Marie.
There was a lot to do w that-Sonny (al’s son) was deaf and being picked on at school, Joe Miller was on the South Side (Torrio and Capone’s turf) and Jake Guzik was a really important part of the Chicago organization, him catching a beating by anybody made them lose face, and it being by one of O’Banion’s men was pretty much a declaration of war
I love this--Al doesn't even wait for him to finish before he's out on the pavement, hunting this prick down. Don't pick on "easy" marks, folks: you never know who their friends might be. :)
When someone doesn't necessarily look like the Character but captures the essence of the Character leading the viewer to believe you are the Character is the sign of a fantastic actor. Stephen Graham has Big Al's stamp of approval. Salute!
He was good, yes, but like all TV series it's all down to the writing. I don't think writers get enough credit actually. A good actor with bad writing is going to give you a bad performance. A medicore actor with great writing will look fantastic.
Apples and oranges. Playing and developing a character in a motion picture - wherein the character gets only a few short scenes (e.g., Deniro's Capone) - is not the same as a made for TV drama series where the character can be developed over many episodes, and over time.
I never noticed, you can hear him storm out RIGHT after "You think it doesn't bother me?" doesn't even wait for an answer. Hes already off to kill the man who made fun of his boy. I loved Al in this show.
A bully who split his friend's head open and could've killed him. Not to mention being in the mob your reputation means everything based off respect and fear. Capone was a psycho and his friend getting bullied triggered the fuck out of him because it may as well have been him getting bullied. So in his eyes he was standing up for someone who can't defend themself and killing a man who crossed the line in several ways as far as mob culture goes. Insecure? No psychotic? Yes.

"Wanna pick on people who can't defend themselves?" Capone had a special-needs son, as shown in the series. Easy to see where his anti-bully virtue comes from.
Indeed. Not quite as badass as beating a man to death in a roomful of people, some of whom are no doubt your arch-rivals...but still pretty bad-ass. Nice bit of flourish, it must be said. :-) Back when hard men knew how to handle their business like true hard men.
Jesus did you all see that???? That guy slipped and fell on his head like 4 times then the stool came outta nowhere and beat the poor guy to death!! Capone who was just there enjoying the good beer though such a nice guy to offer to pay for the guy’s funeral that’s class
the saying that "things were built to last back in the day" really does hold some truth to it. That bar stool just needs to be wiped off and it's ready for the next costumer or victim...
I love how it isnt the injuries that ticks Al off, it is the fact that he insulted him in front of everyone. You get beat by another guy it is fair game, but if you deliberately damage someone's reputation and demean them, you're just a coward.
Amen to that. Not enough folks know what humility is until they get a beat down and start to think more on what comes out of their mouths. @@Rocky-oq9cy
Al always had a hatred for bullies. Mainly because his son was deaf and was bullied in school for it. In this scene his hatred shows. “You wanna pick on people who can’t defend themselves?”
The scene with Capones son made this scene so much more powerful. How his kid was getting bullied for being deaf and he was trying to teach him how to defend himself but saw that his little boy was frightened at the idea of fighting and just wanted to love people, while not understanding why others don’t love him. Then they show this scene and Al practically saw this guy as the kind of guy who would bully his son. This show didn’t deserve to be cancelled :(
@@gfimadcat The show was canceled, sort of. If you couldn't tell, season 5 was rushed and didn't make a lot of sense. They wrapped up the storyline really fast without much thought or development to it. The reason was, most of the boardwalk was destroyed in a hurricane between seasons. For whatever reason, whether financial or otherwise, they didn't want to re-build it, so they ended the series instead. Its why season 5 has a bunch of flashback scenes. Easier to film stuff from a time where the boardwalk was much smaller/didn't really exist yet.
@Johnny Baboon Just to be clear, having a neurodevelopmental variation does often not mean you don't know or understand who you are and why others treat you like crap, which makes it so much worse when people do.
@@hitleractually8180 You know it was filmed at a studio? There's no facts pointing to weather as being the reason. Ratings were quoted as well as 'the arc' pretty much being done. You're living in a fictional world of a semi fictional show. Meds won't help.
The story is a little different in real life, while Capone did hate bullies he didnt beat to the death the man who attack his man just walked up to him at the bar and shot him point blank in the face.
@@Thatdudewiththedogs Nah, I was down under a few years back. There was some craze where people were sucker punching random strangers at night. News were calling them king Hits & dog shots
If Torrio's staff had let this pass they would have been driven out of the bar. When someone pushes you push back. Plain and simple Miller wanted to earn some points with O'bannion. Instead he caught a serious beating.
that is not serious beating that is straight brain damage+ being handicapped for the rest of your life if he is lucky .... most people would have chosen a bullet to the head instead of that
"He cracked my head open" Al Capone reaction: "Well this kinda stuff happens in our business what you gonna do..." "He made fun of me..." Al Capone reaction: "So he has chosen death!"
I first saw Stephen Graham in 'Snatch.' It was a brilliant film, and Graham's character was more of a teddy bear than a tough guy. He has completely owned his subsequent characters that were volatile, bad tempered, and prone to violence. He is a phenomenal actor, 100% believable and authentic in these gangster roles.
def not on bully's side for sure, but same time I can't just stand there and watch someone get beat to death, even if its not my beef I get it in I can't stand ppl that record someone getting beat up either . A real man never instigates but gets it poppin when necessary.
Before that Capone had to determine if it was just a bar fight. The guy didn't touch the money, and the collector was otherwise low level. The second he made fun of him in front of strangers it put the entire outfits reputation at risk. Capone also had a distaste for bullies. I also don't think Capone was going to murder him until he drew the gun.
They did an incredible job with this character, the first few episodes you just think he’s a lazy slob who refuses to shower on a daily basis. Hearing him explain to Al that he really does care about his personal hygiene made you feel genuine empathy for him! Knowing that this is a real story and that Al killed the dude in real life make this scene even better
Al may be a psychotic goofball with a penchant for brutality but holy hell, if I ever end up in the criminal world, I want to have a friend like him on my side.
I really like when fight scenes are portrayed realistically. People get out of breath, they get knocked out easily and even the attacker suffers some consequences.
I love how you can hear Al subtly walking out at 2:11 in the scene. Right after the "He made fun of me, in front of everyone" line. He didn't wait until the dude elaborated on why the guy did what he did, just left to kill him as soon as he heard that he mocked his collection man. Thats a friend right there, besides the murderous sociopathic mob boss aspect of course.
@@putin2918 his son dealt with bullies and tried to toughen him up only to make it worse, he knows how to deal with bullies, no drama just action i doubt he did this for his image
Is that what happened? I love this show and love Al, but this episode was so confusing to me. There are so many characters I have a hard time keeping track. So this is NOT the guy who taunted Al about his son, but he just reminded Al of it, so that's why he killed him?
correct. al hears about his son being bulled and wants to do something about it, but he can't. then he hears about his friend being bullied, and darts off for revenge. it's proven at the end - "you like to pick on people who can't defend themselves?" - al can't protect his son from bullies, but he can protect his friend.
Can we just appreciate that Stephen Graham has a thick Scouse accent and can handle dialects like these! Him, Idris Elba and Tom Hardy all have an amazing range of accents!
Dude, Tom Hardy has eight versions of the same Cockney accent. Then there's Lawless, where he try to sound like he's from the mountains of West Virginia, and only managed to sound like a Brit, trying to sound like he's from the mountains of West Virginia.
Ulster accents are easy. Anything with over emphatic tones aren't too difficult. It's the subtle accents which are hard like scandanavian or Canadian or Wisconsin, Californian northern welsh. West country, Bristol etc.
Don't mistake my kindness for my weaknesses. I am kind to everyone. But when you are unkind to me, weaknesses is not what you are going to remember about me. Al Capone
@Zues It wouldn't be real kindness if it was only to friends or useful people, though... And tax - though horrible - is necessary in a prosperous society.
Beats a man to death, then looks all the bystanders in the face. The people next to the door instinctively back away when they get his attention. He is ice cold in this scene.
Everyone in that bar knew exactly who he was when he finished beating the ancestry out that dude 😂 respect, power and fear was everything in the 1920’s and 30’s crime families! this scene portrayed that perfectly! 😄
It's an animal thing, if you don't do it there's a risk that the room becomes a pack and if that happens they might just be brave enough to come at you. If you look everyone in the eye individually suddenly they're not a group anymore. Worst case scenario you have to deal with three guys best case none.
This is based on a true story involving Jake Gusik, Al Capone's trusted financial advisor and bagman. Al went to great lengths to protect his friends. And because of this, those working for him were also fiercely loyal. Rising Oufit member Tony Accardo even risked his own life to save Al's in one attack on him. Tony went on to become the leader of the Chicago Outfit.
Yep. Johnny Torrio saw Capones potential in NYC and had him sent to Chicago as a favor. The New York mob likes to brag that they chased him out but in reality none of them saw Al as a leader or Illinois as fertile ground and are just rewriting history so they don't look stupid.
"You drink , I drink..were fine right? " The sound in his voice, sounds like the poor guy is exhausted, doesnt want to inflict no harm , just wants to finish his drink on his last pick up of his long hard worked day and go home , only to run into this scumbug , I felt so bad
@@champ1114 How so? Bobby kicked Tony's ass. He may have been fat and an innately gentle soul, but he was by no means soft like the dude working for Capone.
Um, he was collecting protection racket money. He may be the protagonist in this little story, but he's still a dirtbag criminal like the one who assaults him.
This scene is even better in context to the whole episode. He discovered his son was getting picked on at school and was trying to teach him to defend himself, but the little kid just couldn't fight back.
Sim Syn - Think he also felt like Shit after Jimmy brought to his attention that his son wasnt stupid or hard headed he was just deaf and needed to develop special communication skills then the bullying his boy went through didnt help.
Sim Syn yeah that scene where he’s telling his son to hit him, that shit gets me everytime. Just the look on his kids face, doesn’t understand why his dad is doing it. Anyone who has kids understands
When I watched this episode, I think the reason for Al's extreme aggression is because his deaf kid was being bullied beforehand and now he gets to blow off steam for the same reason.
Yup, notice how when the heavy, smelly guy (sorry, forgot his name) came in Al was playing the Ukulele. The same instrument he played for his deaf son in the show as a method to bond with and soothe the boy. Kinda sweet actually.
TheKhal No it's a lot less poetic than that: Capone's man was made fun of in front of many people all of who knew he was a collector for his crime family. That badly harms the reputation of it and diminishes it's stance to be feared. That's why Capone went himself to set things straight and didn't just send a couple of his many henchmen. It had to be made clear who is boss, who needs to be feared and who can't be disrespected. It's a mob movie.
Actually Al Capone is a shitty HR person. He put his employee in a position to fail or in this care get a beating. why are you gonna send out a walking stink bomb to represent you and go collect money . Especially in that world. That guy belongs inside by himself doing paperwork
@@bearmanpig1568 Pffft. I'm sure the murderous bastard never picked on people who couldn't defend themselves. It's not like he was a mob boss or anything.
3:30 thats how a person takes a breath after a fight, that is so rare to see in todays television. In 90% of action sceenes today they fight for like 1-5 min and after that just walk it off or keep talking without breaking a sweat. Anyone who has ever been in a fight that did not end in 1 hit, knows that after a brawl its like a 10km run haha.
Nice BS story, he was dead at that point you nitwit. So here's an idea, don't pretend you're special and know it all because you don't. You're just like any other dumb schmoe here, you know shit so don't fuckin pretend like you do.

a great badass moment. Also some justice, maybe a bit brutal but still justice.
Indeed. Not quite as badass as beating a man to death in a roomful of people, some of whom are no doubt your arch-rivals...but still pretty bad-ass. Nice bit of flourish, it must be said. :-)

I love that scene. No smart mouth cinematic lines or warning. Just pure, realistic savagery
I love how it isnt the injuries that ticks Al off, it is the fact that he insulted him in front of everyone. You get beat by another guy it is fair game, but if you deliberately damage someone's reputation and demean them, you're just a coward.
Lot of cowards on twitter then.

Amen to that. Not enough folks know what humility is until they get a beat down and start to think more on what comes out of their mouths. @@Rocky-oq9cy
Al always had a hatred for bullies. Mainly because his son was deaf and was bullied in school for it. In this scene his hatred shows. “You wanna pick on people who can’t defend themselves?”
No what ticked him off was he Son got bulled in school and then his brother was made fun of was it for him Al was tough guy but he hated bullies

@@marklaronde6614 Some sad shit...
It was two black guys.
@@marklaronde6614 yeah that's from sopranos when they throw buddy from bridge
The scene with Capones son made this scene so much more powerful. How his kid was getting bullied for being deaf and he was trying to teach him how to defend himself but saw that his little boy was frightened at the idea of fighting and just wanted to love people, while not understanding why others don’t love him. Then they show this scene and Al practically saw this guy as the kind of guy who would bully his son. This show didn’t deserve to be cancelled :(
It... wasn't cancelled? I think? It just ended.
@@gfimadcat they changed the original ending because it was going to be cancelled.
It WAS cancelled.
@@gfimadcat The show was canceled, sort of. If you couldn't tell, season 5 was rushed and didn't make a lot of sense. They wrapped up the storyline really fast without much thought or development to it. The reason was, most of the boardwalk was destroyed in a hurricane between seasons. For whatever reason, whether financial or otherwise, they didn't want to re-build it, so they ended the series instead. Its why season 5 has a bunch of flashback scenes. Easier to film stuff from a time where the boardwalk was much smaller/didn't really exist yet.
@Johnny Baboon Just to be clear, having a neurodevelopmental variation does often not mean you don't know or understand who you are and why others treat you like crap, which makes it so much worse when people do.
@@hitleractually8180 You know it was filmed at a studio? There's no facts pointing to weather as being the reason. Ratings were quoted as well as 'the arc' pretty much being done. You're living in a fictional world of a semi fictional show. Meds won't help.
The "Pay for his Funeral" Part, while throwing Money on him, and the Bar... that shit is pure BADASS. He sent one HELL of a Message with that one.
Girl in the background: "stop!!"
Al: hold on im almost finished.
The story is a little different in real life, while Capone did hate bullies he didnt beat to the death the man who attack his man just walked up to him at the bar and shot him point blank in the face.

Also you can see Al´s shadow on the wall moving.
If Torrio's staff had let this pass they would have been driven out of the bar. When someone pushes you push back. Plain and simple

I first saw Stephen Graham in 'Snatch.' It was a brilliant film, and Graham's character was more of a teddy bear than a tough guy. He has completely owned his subsequent characters that were volatile, bad tempered, and prone to violence. He is a phenomenal actor, 100% believable and authentic in these gangster roles.
Snatch is one of my favourite movies but This Is England has his best performance
The guy had 3 Strikes against him
1 he was O’Banians man
2 in the southside
3 insulted and beat up Capones Man.
“Pay For His Funeral”

@@kevinangel7289 What side are you on? I honestly have no idea. Your street slang can be taken either way...
def not on bully's side for sure, but same time I can't just stand there and watch someone get beat to death, even if its not my beef I get it in I can't stand ppl that record someone getting beat up either . A real man never instigates but gets it poppin when necessary.
He also laughed when o'banion mocked his kid
"Al, he made fun of me"
"What?"
(Straw to break the camel's back)
I can respect it.
Crazy, he let the beating go until he heard his friend was made fun of.
@@derekborba9574 Capone probably caught a lot of shit growing up for being short and stupid.
@@ChristobanistanCapone's son had mental disabilities also.
Before that Capone had to determine if it was just a bar fight. The guy didn't touch the money, and the collector was otherwise low level. The second he made fun of him in front of strangers it put the entire outfits reputation at risk. Capone also had a distaste for bullies. I also don't think Capone was going to murder him until he drew the gun.
They did an incredible job with this character, the first few episodes you just think he’s a lazy slob who refuses to shower on a daily basis. Hearing him explain to Al that he really does care about his personal hygiene made you feel genuine empathy for him! Knowing that this is a real story and that Al killed the dude in real life make this scene even better
Al may be a psychotic goofball with a penchant for brutality but holy hell, if I ever end up in the criminal world, I want to have a friend like him on my side.
The fat man was _loyal._
Respect like that goes both ways.

Smartest dude in the room
I really like when fight scenes are portrayed realistically. People get out of breath, they get knocked out easily and even the attacker suffers some consequences.
I love how you can hear Al subtly walking out at 2:11 in the scene. Right after the "He made fun of me, in front of everyone" line. He didn't wait until the dude elaborated on why the guy did what he did, just left to kill him as soon as he heard that he mocked his collection man. Thats a friend right there, besides the murderous sociopathic mob boss aspect of course.
If he doesn't hurt the guy that hit the fat dude then his reputation is weakened... He probably did it for his own image. He was making a point.
@@putin2918 his son dealt with bullies and tried to toughen him up only to make it worse, he knows how to deal with bullies, no drama just action i doubt he did this for his image

@@donarthiazi2443 I said his son's deaf.
Let this be a lesson to all bullies: There's always someone bigger than you.

yes... talking about the show I agree...
When bullies beat up bullies!
I love when bullies get there ass handed to them, makes me happy :)
That's a real friend right there! Arguably the best character in the series!
From 2:43 -2:50 the faces Al Capone was making before he proceeded to deploy an iconic beatdown..... HILARIOUS!!!!.....🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaha the rage on 2:50
the beating story barely phased al, but when he heard about the taunting, he immediately thought of his kid. brilliant.
Is that what happened? I love this show and love Al, but this episode was so confusing to me. There are so many characters I have a hard time keeping track. So this is NOT the guy who taunted Al about his son, but he just reminded Al of it, so that's why he killed him?
correct. al hears about his son being bulled and wants to do something about it, but he can't. then he hears about his friend being bullied, and darts off for revenge. it's proven at the end - "you like to pick on people who can't defend themselves?" - al can't protect his son from bullies, but he can protect his friend.
Ok. Thanks!
*fazed
Great observation otherwise, I hadn't caught that the bullying was the thing pissing Al off the most.
"I didn't see nuthin" - Crowd.
He slipped
allright then i'll tawk to ya
He fell down some stairs
What stairs?! I didn’t see any st -
Shudup fore I throw you down a flight!
🤣
He slipped on a banana peal!🍺🥴👉🍌
You can hear Al leave the room at 2:10. Nice touch. Three footsteps.
If you listen closely someone yells "I didn't see nothing," after Capone finishes the guy with the bar stool 😂😂😂
Can we just appreciate that Stephen Graham has a thick Scouse accent and can handle dialects like these! Him, Idris Elba and Tom Hardy all have an amazing range of accents!
Did you hear his awful Welsh accent in Whitehouse Farm?
Dude is from Liverpool? Had no idea. Respect -thats a perfect wiseguy accent from that era but can he do an Ulster accent thats the big one. Lol
Dude, Tom Hardy has eight versions of the same Cockney accent. Then there's Lawless, where he try to sound like he's from the mountains of West Virginia, and only managed to sound like a Brit, trying to sound like he's from the mountains of West Virginia.
@@heatherphillips5983 okay, that's very nice. Now stay on topic, nobody spoke about Tom Hardy.
Ulster accents are easy. Anything with over emphatic tones aren't too difficult. It's the subtle accents which are hard like scandanavian or Canadian or Wisconsin, Californian northern welsh. West country, Bristol etc.
Don't mistake my kindness for my weaknesses.
I am kind to everyone.
But when you are unkind to me, weaknesses is not what you are going to remember about me.

Beats a man to death, then looks all the bystanders in the face. The people next to the door instinctively back away when they get his attention. He is ice cold in this scene.

At that point, I said to myself... He's a dead man.
It's an animal thing, if you don't do it there's a risk that the room becomes a pack and if that happens they might just be brave enough to come at you. If you look everyone in the eye individually suddenly they're not a group anymore. Worst case scenario you have to deal with three guys best case none.
"Tonight is my night!" famous last words.
This is based on a true story involving Jake Gusik, Al Capone's trusted financial advisor and bagman. Al went to great lengths to protect his friends. And because of this, those working for him were also fiercely loyal. Rising Oufit member Tony Accardo even risked his own life to save Al's in one attack on him. Tony went on to become the leader of the Chicago Outfit.
Accardo was the boss for over 30 years, and never spent a day in jail.
When you show loyalty to your crew, they'll show it right back.
@@Nls-nj5yw That's because he had a "front man" same as the "Chin'. And that man was Sam "Moonie" Giancana.
Yep. Johnny Torrio saw Capones potential in NYC and had him sent to Chicago as a favor. The New York mob likes to brag that they chased him out but in reality none of them saw Al as a leader or Illinois as fertile ground and are just rewriting history so they don't look stupid.

Sim Syn - Think he also felt like Shit after Jimmy brought to his attention that his son wasnt stupid or hard headed he was just deaf and needed to develop special communication skills then the bullying his boy went through didnt help.

Taught him a lesson he won’t ever forget or remember at the same time 😂😂😂
When I watched this episode, I think the reason for Al's extreme aggression is because his deaf kid was being bullied beforehand and now he gets to blow off steam for the same reason.
That's exactly how the writers intended the portrayal.
Exactly right
5ft 10 back in Prohibition era was considered tall.
Yup, notice how when the heavy, smelly guy (sorry, forgot his name) came in Al was playing the Ukulele. The same instrument he played for his deaf son in the show as a method to bond with and soothe the boy. Kinda sweet actually.
TheKhal
No it's a lot less poetic than that: Capone's man was made fun of in front of many people all of who knew he was a collector for his crime family. That badly harms the reputation of it and diminishes it's stance to be feared. That's why Capone went himself to set things straight and didn't just send a couple of his many henchmen.
It had to be made clear who is boss, who needs to be feared and who can't be disrespected.
It's a mob movie.
That’s one hell of an HR department Al Capone had taking care of employees
Actually Al Capone is a shitty HR person. He put his employee in a position to fail or in this care get a beating. why are you gonna send out a walking stink bomb to represent you and go collect money . Especially in that world. That guy belongs inside by himself doing paperwork
Even Al Capone wouldn't have believed this over-exaggerated portrayal of himself
