chani I was supposed to run errands this afternoon, but it was raining and I was feeling tired. So I decided to have a nap...and finally opened my eyes two hours later.
Before the nap I got to watch Boardwalk Empire, the series that makes you forget all about De Niro's character in The Untouchables, and makes you love Al Capone !
Stephen Graham is fantastic at portraying such a complex character(tit-slapper, violent man, scumbag, killer and loving father). The boy playing Capone's son was great too. When he started crying in the "hit me" scene and Capone finally hugged him, it was magical.
And the mandolin scene in the end? Simply wonderful.
And of course the very short scene with Rothstein talking to Doyle on the phone was priceless. Michael Stuhalbarg is another terrific actor, but I already knew that since the Coens ' A Serious Man.
