What I liked about this scene was Capone genuinely listened to the old man advice on becoming matured and a man. When he said he shouldn’t wear a boy cap but a hat suit for a man, he wasn’t offended but took the advice. He even told Lucky to “grow up” when he made a joke about a dead man. Sadly Capone didn’t mature enough.
@@wyettmuth8411 Gyp smiles, almost seems genuine. "What's wrong with da hat I'm wearin'?" Old man: "You are a man, but you wear the hat of a boy." Gyp has a puzzled look at first, but then smiles at the man. Again, with a practiced sincerity. Next scene: Old man getting choked to death by Gyp. "Dis was my faddah's hat, you slimy bastard!"
after this is when Al started to dress better and act more serious. remember a few episodes later Lucky Luciano cracks a joke about someone dying and Al Capone tells him to grow up already lmao
Oisín O'Sullivan Hahaha! No that sometimes it’s time to grow up.

@@Moose-iz1uo why, cuz one old jew says his hat is more grown up than al's ? I'm irish, as i'm sure you can tell by my name and the hat Al was wearing is a traditional Irish hat Has nothing to do with being grown up ... what that old jewish man said about the hat was wrong So what this scene really shows is you can live to old age being an ignorant dumbski
Oisín O'Sullivan In America where this takes place in both time and country that was considered a boys hat. You can’t change that or undo it. In Europe maybe that was a grown mans hat, but in America it wasn’t so. That is why he said “And yet you wear the hat of a boy” he wasn’t insulting him he was trying to get thru to him. That is why the character changes hats in the end and replies to lucky with the “grow up” remark. No one cares that ur Irish. That’s ur prerogative. Al Capone realized that the 13 year old boy was being considered a man and while he was goofing around and embarrassing Johnny Torrio with his cigar gag, he realized that If that boy is considered a man, then he in turn should act like a man. Especially since Johnny Torrio saw something in him that no one else would. If you behave like a child what do you expect people will perceive you as? Its not about the stupid hat, it’s about the message. Like I said in America gangsters didn’t look the way they did in Peaky Blinders.

@@Moose-iz1uo calm down with your "no one cares that ur Irish" , it was part of my point The point of which youve missed completely The fact is, the hat is not a boys hat and thus the old man was ignorant for calling it such But i think youre just looking for a fight so i'll leave you to talk to yourself Adios, kid
The boy is chanting the "Aliyah": a prayer that's done immediately before and after reading from the the torah, with a brief verse from the torah in between. Whats great about this scene is the next time we see Al, he is dressed in his trademark fedora, promising his boss Torio he will start conducting himself more maturely.

You might want to look up the history and tradition of flat caps. Despite what this character said, they are far from "the cap of a boy" both in America and Great Britain. Flat caps are informal hats, whereas brimmed hats -- fedoras, homburgs, etc. -- are for formal wear.
@@kevinlee149 actually the western world stop wearing hats because of cars having roofs and that JFK didn’t like wearing them. It had nothing to do with religion, formal or informal. So that’s awkward for you.
@@craigwatson6368 Who said anything about religion? He simply said flat caps were "for boys" when, historically, they were worn by adult men as much as they were by boys. What they often denoted was setting or income level. A good felt hat cost a lot more than a flat cap. Also, hardtop car roofs began to proliferate in the 1920s, yet men's hats were still common for another 40 years.
No disrespect, but in my “culture/circles” (working class STL) the Krogers and Flat-caps are still worn today as a “I work for a living and was raised to be responsible…but I will cause you injury in a very public way without notice” kinda hat. I do know who you are talking about though. You can spot them by their lack of scars and a tattoo of all four ‘Golden Girls’ on their neck. 😉 when they wear Flat-Caps I take them away and use “stolen valor” as my justification. I take all their size medium Carhartt crap too, I drop it off at the battered women’s shelter. 😉🤝
And here was all us Italians thinking that you were a full member of the community at confirmation... almost like the writers don't actually know anything about how the Catholic Church understood itself before 1965.
Wow. What's goin' on in Capone's head, I wonder. By the way, this was a helluva express Bar Mitzvah -- the kid never even read the Torah parsha. By the way, I couldn't help thinking ahead about 60 years to Hesh Rabkin of The Sopranos. Hesh was based on a guy I used to work for when I was in grad school, Morris Levy.
@Adrian At And T I am aware, Adrian. I was a young graduate student from Chicago, and what did I know? He never hired part-time help, but based on a recommendation from the guy I worked for in Chicago, he hired me to work in one of his record stores on the days I had no classes. The feds had tapped his phone and nailed him for extortion. He was out on appeal, but was looking at 10 years of federal time when he died of cancer, about 6 years after I had worked for him.
Do women not attend bar mitzvah's ? I didn't know that. Learn something new everyday. It's funny how I learned a new theological fact from a great HBO show about gangsters in the 1920s haha
Back during this period, most American Jews (particularly new immigrants) would have been Orthodox. In Orthodox synagogues, women do attend, but men and women sit in separate sections, divided by a partition called a Mechitza. In a synagogue of this time, the women's section would have typically been in a balcony in the rear of the sanctuary, although some synagogues would have it on the same level in the rear, or side-by side with the men's section.

Strange when Al Capone is the most normal guy in the room.

acting range. outstanding
