"Boardwalk Empire" - movie effect, it is worth a visit

HBO had the slogan said: "It's not TV. It's HBO." It means that the HBO programs is much better than other TV channels of the programs. "Boardwalk Empire" is the best embodiment of this sentence.


Boardwalk Empire tell the story about during the Prohibition gangster the United States in the 1920s.

The main character Nucky is a mafia boss in New Jersey Atlantic City, and he is a treasurer in the county. People who want to officer have to rely on his hand, regardless of official or business must be on time to pay protection money, The officer must give his policy tilt funding. He opened the casino brothel, the government obviously temperance, but he through trafficking wine and made huge profits.

Normally I do not quite see a the underworld book or movie, always felt that this number of interesting stories, but colleagues say that this show is the best looking after Mad Men, such high acclaim, I can not miss.


Watched "Boardwalk Empire", only to find myself was wrong before, original story can say so, people involved in the creation of Boardwalk Empire is too much! I was attracted to it when I just saw the first episode.The play screen is perfect, from the tone to the scene,every picture is very eye-catching. We should look at such a good drama, I have a feeling of a little home theater. Later, I search

online, before we know, the first episode was directed by film director Martin Scorsese, he is famous in the film's visual effects.

The show specifically to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build more than 90 meters long promenade(boardwalk in the title of the play is what I mean). Even the writers did not think the producer for effect, so spared no expense. This episode spent 18 million dollars, it seems to be expensive than most of the domestic film costs. Spend so much money,there is no effort in vain screenwriter. Terence Winter is the writer of The Sopranos, is acclaimed. Write this script is quite simple,he portrayed the underworld characters are flesh and blood, the hero Nucky Thompson especially, he not only evil, there are well-intentioned, even useless. If there is no Winter storytelling so his right, depicts the ability of the characters, the film is light shot pretty useless.



It has been someone asked why Martin Scorsese from the movie back to guide TV series, his quarters boast HBO, said the cable station to the TV audience can see the movie high quality TV programs. Expand the drama characters and plot depth, breadth, HBO is a pioneer. He said that in the 1960s,television is the intention, but to the age of 70, 80, 90, TV useless such a high-quality story-telling.

In contrast,Scorsese said HBO drama is well thought out, wise, carefully crafted. HBO provides a new opportunity to tell stories. He said, "HBO and TV is very different from the past."

HBO's worthy of its ad: "It's not TV. It's HBO."
