They weren't geeks. They were criminals from early on in their life. However, criminals with brains and cunning mindsets made them last almost 60 years at their best.

Ehh. Boh. At the end of the question he says /acca/ meaning ‘here’ - “what’s the difference here” - which doesn’t really sound Italian (qui/qua) nor does it really sound Sicilian nor Napuletano. Nor any dialect I know of. It does sound Spanish tho. Gives him away. A single sound. Italian is tight and strict no matter which version or dialect is the matter. Spanish is more loose. It does sound Argentine dialect Spanish indeed. Rioplatense. For aquí Argentines say /aca/ The Sudacas/Sudakas in Buenos Aires/Uruguay slang.
How is that even possible in 1920's to sign 500k life insurance policies? I know a lot of the stuff in the show is fiction, but 500k life insurance policy in 1920's sounds ridiculous.
I just realized that Luciano asks to excuse himself to go pee here after being disgruntled with who he has to answer to. Few seasons later he does the same thing but has joe the boss whacked. He realized that sometimes you have to take action
@@user-xc3yb1vk2e no question is dumb. Dumb is usually the people who think they already know everything and those that insult strangers online just to make themselves feel big and important.
@@Daveyengland Actually I take that back. In the final season Vincent Piazza briefly gave me the real Luciano vibe. Stephen Graham, while great, was playing someone other than Capone.
Not just Benny. I just now noticed one of the brothers is the guy who played the heroin addict who translates for the Neapolitan hitmen who killed Rusty Millio.
I have traveled from the borough of Manhattan in the city of New York. Making it sound like he’s coming from the city of Oz sounding like he didn’t think chalky knew either of those areas existed 😂
@@sonnyblack0870 Right?! Vincent Piazza (Lucky) did a great job in ACTING, but the character itself was sooooo far off the mark in some ways. They painted him as a fuseless hothead, and I have absolutely no idea why. In the show, he behaves and sounds almost nothing like actual Luciano.
Terrence Winter worked on this and started writing for Sopranos during 2nd season. He was clearly missed during Many Saints of Newark because the writing in that is nowhere close to how smooth it is in these shows.
@@Godfather9814 Yes - but those "10 grand" weren't an actual "deal". Lansky's "proposition" was a FAKE one - he gave him 10 grands only to feel out how much is Chalky's & Thompson's liquor business bringing in. If Chalky turns him down means the business is worth much more - if not - it means the business is smaller than they thought.
@@chromyom2596 I learned a lot about the history of the mob that I did not know before watching The Making of the Mob. Boardwalk Empire is fiction. Not to mention, the main character I cared about in the fictional series, Jimmy Darmody, they killed him off at the end of season 1. Season 2 was hard to watch after that, so I just didn't.
@@JoshuaFrick3 no one was arguing boardwalk empire wasn't fictionalized. about jimmy, i remember hearing that michael pitt (the actor who played darmody) was late to the shootings and was an asshole on set, so that's probably part of why they wrote him off
Acting is fine; it's only the character that's fucked up. They made some really weird artistic choices with Luciano. I'm sure his character would be amusing to someone who knows nothing about the actual story, but for the rest us...🤨?!
I swear Lucky and Lansky needed a spin-off these two worked off each other so well!
I mean they were real people so I’m not sure a spin-off could work exactly
@@patrickcanter6136 not like this show was all that historically accurate

@@JW-rq8qh yeah and that sucked
Benny Fazio the criminal mastermind.
Its Benny Fazio's great-grandpa, Borko Fazio
That actor was in this, the Sopranos and now in Tulsa King.
Chalky White is like "What proposition?" and my dumbass yells in a room full of people "Proposition Joe!".
I don't get it

I love how the shows characters of Charlie and Meyer went from being geeks trying to make it in the mafia to actual Godfathers by the end of the show.
They were never geeks
They weren't geeks. They were criminals from early on in their life. However, criminals with brains and cunning mindsets made them last almost 60 years at their best.
@@jimmyknight1609thank you
The British guy playing Lansky was sensational in this series.. I don’t know how he has never become a major star.
The accent is on point
Underated Talent
Major star?
I could listen to Luciano talk all day
Yeah, but could you fix 'im up or no?
Chalky: "your mama know you out wearin your daddy sunday suit?"
Meyer: "no sir she does not. She also does not know i have this"
Meyer was such a opportunist haha
"..can't blame a fellow for trying.."
Then the donkeys act like he’s reaching for a weapon like they didn’t just frisk him on screen 😂
Lansky has the best accent in the SERIES
I know it so Jewish lmao
Lucky has a good one also.
Yeah, nothing says authentic like a Turkish actor born on Cyprus who grew up in England doing a Lower East accent.
@@jimpalmer2981 all of what you mentioned and his accent is still a spot on Brooklyn. Your criticism is his praise lol
@@jimpalmer2981 Lol, you realize you inadvertently complimented him. And let's not pretend movies and TV have been using actors that are ethnically or racially different from their characters for YEARS.
"How you know I drive a Packard?!"
OMAR! OMAR! OMAR COMING!
When Benny is the boss among the d’Alessios you know it is a major f up
He's such a criminals mastermind he built a time machine just to go back and be boss in the 1920s.
3:23 lol meyer went for the handshake so fast
benny managed to not get beaten up in this scene
that’s ChrisTUHfuh’s junkie friend too!!
yeah criminal mastermind benny fasio didnt get beaten up which i applaud @@natalieruegger9047
The play against the de' Alessio brothers was a beautiful move. They all got payout from them coming and going.
hard to put on over on benny fazio criminal mastermind
The very best cast TV show. EVER. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 hands down best!
Luciano’s accent tho.
Good or bad?
@@PhalanxSpirit sooooo good 😍
I'm watching this video just for that

Rough stereotypical New York Italian accent. What's that thing with his eye though?
Great portrayal of Lucky Luciano....the best I have ever seen.
Mackey Doyle's laugh kills me
To the day in A.C., on cold, lonely nights, if you listen real close....you can still hear his giggle echoing through the streets and boardwalks...
Love the old school New Yorker gangster slang. My friends love it when I do my Meyer Lansky voice. Gets glasses of whiskey well filled.
My friends HATE IT when I do Mickey Doyle's voice lol. And when I do Chalkys I just get my ass kicked.
I learned so much from this show. The appreciation for the art of conversation will go a long way
surprised to see Benny Fazio criminal mastermind working with Lucky lol
& Chrissie’s junkie friend too!!
it’s Bennie Fazio & Chrissy’s junkie friend!!
Damn I knew I recognized that one! Crazy they gave a heroin addict the job of setting up the Phil leotardo hit.
“I gotta Piss 🚽 “ *Taps Cigarette 🚬Out On Ashtray * Luciano sure knows how to make a exit that’s for sure.
8:05... AR has the new recruits signing 500k life insurance policies...that's why he was a genius aside from his gambling addiction
How is that even possible in 1920's to sign 500k life insurance policies? I know a lot of the stuff in the show is fiction, but 500k life insurance policy in 1920's sounds ridiculous.
@@povilasmarveloustv3810 And it was his own firm.
Why he made them sign it
Luciano was my favorit character
Amazing dialogue between characters. It’s immaculate. Whoever wrote this screen play is a true genius.
great performance's.the cigarettes' got best supporting actor.
RIP Michael K Williams
A great friendship portrayed by two wonderful actors.
Meyer Lansky: STRAIGHT GANGSTER!!!
Ehhh
I just realized that Luciano asks to excuse himself to go pee here after being disgruntled with who he has to answer to.
Few seasons later he does the same thing but has joe the boss whacked. He realized that sometimes you have to take action
Rothstein ended up breaking even between the D’Alessio brothers and Nucky’s payoff 😂
Great point
i love the background music so much anyone know what it is
Who knew Benny Fazio and Corky Caporale were brothers 😮
That little look Meyer gives after the other guy mentioned a packard. He knows the game is up
Nucky understood that four fives beats your full house.
Ohhhhh, that’s Benny from ‘The Sopranos’.
& Chrissy’s junkie friend too!
Sopranos meets the wire, fun fact both series ran at the same time.
The 1.5 mil for the 3 life insurance policies, would equate to about 20.6 mil $ in today's currency.
Tony sopranos is not going to like the fact that his cousin is running a family behind his back
Michael Lewis - Meyer Lansky
2:11 I just had to thank the night 🌙shift cleaning crew for setting the scene for this here meeting 🤣 I'm serious so pretty lol
If there's anything to be learned from Boardwalk, it's that good manners costs nothing. 😂
they picked the perfect person to play Luciano
Yo momma know you out wearing your daddy’s Sunday suit
"Questo Big Business."
A proposition? Well tickle my fancy short pants...
R.i.p
Mr white.
3. 38 the beginning of a criminal masterminds
Hey look...the three stooges!
HBO should have done a spin off of Lucky and Mayer after Boardwalk Empire.
Damn I wish it was the 1920s and we lived amongst these gangsters
No you don’t
@@jimmykray9583 either way it's better than the 20's we are experiencing now
Wow Lansky wanted to give chalky 10,000 bucks in 1920 I was like giving him the equivalent of 160,000 today! Got a love inflation
AR is the best for me!!!
If you can get people to sign life insurance forms for half a million back then why bother with alcohol?
Because he wouldn't be able to constantly cash them in without suspicion (even though he owns the company
What a dumb question
@@user-xc3yb1vk2e no question is dumb. Dumb is usually the people who think they already know everything and those that insult strangers online just to make themselves feel big and important.
Meyer was 18 historical in this timeline he looks like a proper adult lol

Lucki el uno y meyer
Benny from the sopranos looks very old.
It’s a few years after the show ended
Smuggle it ashore.
noice
🌸OWO, would you look at that I'm the 99 comment, I feel very proud of myself for making it here lol☺️🌸
back when gasoline was 18 cents per gallon
What the hell accent does lansky have? Sounds like a mixture of British, Polish, and brooklyn accents.
the actor is english-turkish.
rl-meyer lansky was a polish-russian american jew so having a weird accent tracks imo
Thats a New York accent. New York has a variety of different accents after all.
Yeah to be fair Lansky would’ve had a weird accent to begin with.
@greenmachine5600 not in the 1920s dude. You'd notice almost immediately.
I know this is from a couple of years ago but you should delete your editing software
Rothstein made his bet. - And you fellas can die in it.
Why they stop making 500 bills?
The same reason they stopped making 1,000 bills.
Imagine dropping a few? 😂😂
The whole story line in the movie was messed up, if they stuck to reality would be much better.
1920s “The Wire” 😂
Looch and Lansky the biggest POS they arent in a good place
Capone, Bugsy, and Luciano were poorly cast. Rothstien and Lansky were great casting.
Nonsense. All perfect.
Are you insane?
@@Daveyengland Good actors, and I’d even say they were good in the show, but not once did they remind me of their real life counterparts.
@@Daveyengland Actually I take that back. In the final season Vincent Piazza briefly gave me the real Luciano vibe. Stephen Graham, while great, was playing someone other than Capone.

Not just Benny. I just now noticed one of the brothers is the guy who played the heroin addict who translates for the Neapolitan hitmen who killed Rusty Millio.
I always felt that way with Mia lansky & lucky both were good at negotiating
Omar coming yo!
@@jimpalmer2981 Ahhhhh, I KNEW I knew him from somewhere.
Thanks. 👍 That was annoying me.
Hahaha "yo mama know you out wearing yo daddy's Sunday suit?"
The "short pants" part gets me everytime 😂
Lucky will always be "Short pants" to me. Thank you Gyp.
Meyer will always be "Short Pants" to me.
Thank you Chaulky
Such a great movie
Both those "short pants" became the biggest shot calling OGs ever!
Chalky was always the sharpest dresser
Agreed and I think Narcisse is close
Lucky was Dapper
I have traveled from the borough of Manhattan in the city of New York.
Making it sound like he’s coming from the city of Oz sounding like he didn’t think chalky knew either of those areas existed 😂
After all, Atlantic city is the deep south to new yorkers. Lol
Hahaha
😆
Basically
The music was perfect when Chalky and Meyer met.
And when Rothstein met the DiLesio brothers and Micky Doyle. Great scoring
@ 2:38 - Song name is:
"Indianola" James Reese Europe & the 369th U.S. Infantry "Hell Fighters" Band
“How do you do ?”
*Long Pause*
“We already met actually”
I fucking died of laughter for some reason
I love Boardwalk Empire to death....
But I think it might have been a better show if Capone and the other real gangsters in the show were the focus.
@@jamesbarnett527 he was a business man who worked with them tho
Yup tho it's based on the book...
Capone was a great gangster in his time
Ya but I love the character of Nucky. Also Capone and Luciano weren’t cast very well, neither actor reminded me of their real life characters.

All high quality with a lot of attention to detail and produced by HBO

You ever tried a Martina?
Anyone know the name of the song that plays around the 5:31 mark?
A bit late, but it's Idle Dreams by George Gershwin
...Chalky always loyal - no matter what...
Except to his wife
