This is why I wasn't upset when he died. He couldn't handle the simplest things as a boss, let alone the larger stuff. The show made him pay for it. Oh well.
Yea Manny was even patient with him. And Manny made it crystal clear he's not the kind of guy you fuck over. It was just dumb, even if it was a death wish he got his wife killed over it and I'm sure he never wanted that.
Jimmy is almost unconsciously unresponsive to threats, challenges, and whimsies posed to him by the characters with whom he is confronted. That is an individual that has bore witness to such atrocities that he is no longer effected by trivialities. War will do that.
It wasn’t intimidation that he did that. Nobody could intimidate him. He just would get tired of hearing something or didn’t want to keep arguing about something he would do it. It being slice throat or try to have Nucky killed. He was scared of no one. Plus slicing his throat instead of shooting like manny prob expected showed what level jimmy was on as a bad ass.
Allen Iverson I think that scene had more to do with Jimmy’s inability to navigate obstacles within his business. He made poor business decisions and was inexperienced with power plays and positioning at the top. Jimmy was an effective soldier he wasn’t a very good politician. That’s why at the veterans memorial opening Jimmy came up to Nucky and said “you don’t think I know how to play this game?” And Nucky says to Jimmy “I don’t even think you know the rules” it all ended up being true unfortunately
+smoothcriminal28 Agreed. He totally nailed his part. But I think that was a requirement of ALL the actors on Boardwalk Empire. NOBODY disappoints Marty Scorsese.
I think he’s more surprised that Jimmy laughed off his threat. Not worried, but he turned off his pleasant persona because he saw this is a man he can’t pressure.
Actually it was lucky luc that owed manny and jimmy just said he would cover it for him. Then yes never did but that’s just cause he didn’t like manny.
@@GlennShook Jimmy made the deal,he pissed on nucky at this point. He wanted to be top dog and couldnt even come up with five grand. Great killer,pathetic embarassing "leader material". If youre right,then that would mean nucky was friends with jimmy. They cut ties.
Well not really the failed attempt on nuckeys life is what killed Jimmy, Manny killed Jimmy's wife. But yea, Jimmy handled that very wrong. Money and power got to his head!!
@Michael P yes he meant to fuck Manny over!!His plan was to hire waxy Gordon's mug to kill Manny instead of paying him the 5 Gran, that he owed Manny. But the hit was botched and Manny retaliated killing JIMMY'S wife on accident.
Nicely done scene. William Forsythe's accent is perfect. The dialogue flows smoothly and the story clicks along. One of the things I liked about Boardwalk Empire is that even the less dramatic scenes were complete, polished and enjoyable to watch. I miss this show. One of the best I've ever seen on "the small screen".
I really like this scene. It was charming and some nice dialogue. Manny and Jimmy had chemistry and I thought nice connection. It's so disappointing how things just went badly after this among all of them
I blame Jimmy. You can't treat a man like Manny Horvitz like that and not expect consequences. He started off being respectful and then.........ah well.
freddybeer I know😔 I didn't understand why but after reading other comments, I guess Jimmy didn't have the money to pay him back and he certainly didn't have the booze.
He should have gone to see him, explained. It would have shown respect. To ignore him, hoping he would go away, utterly foolhardy! Meh, hey that's the script that was written, eh? Just showed that Jimmy didn't have what it took to be a boss. Quote Tony Soprano : 'Those that want respect, give respect.'
Should've taken Manny seriously. Manny was very patient. Jimmy just couldn't be bothered to give him what he was owed. He got cocky, and two innocent women died because of it.
@@deathrager2404 Yes, Michael Pitt was hard to work with, however, storywise, i think was also the feeling that Manny gave to jimmy, like a father authority figure. As we all know from jimmy's upbringing, that never set in well with him. For starter's his relationship with the commodore, or the reunion with the elders at the mansion when he got hit by one of them for not taking things seriously, ending in a reckless retaliation. As @Brendissimo points out, Manny's patience was strong, specially towards jimmy because, eventho the meeting was a success and he saw in jimmy a man on the come and saw him as a kid that could learn, he knew business was business, 5k or 500k didn't matter. By the time Jimmy pushed doyle off the second floor at babbette's, he knew jimmy didn't have what it takes to keep his affairs in order, or learn by that matter.
TheSealOfTheRose Probably not smart of Manny to belittle him in front of strangers, you can tell Herman doesn't like it. No wonder he went behind his back with Waxy.

That, and he didn't really care what he lived or died. It was made pretty clear that he considered himself dead man ever since the war anyway. Or at least, Jimmy Darmody the Boy was dead, and Jimmy Darmody the Gangster would either have it all or die trying.

William Forsythe; I remember him more as a side actor in some cheesy stuff, lowbrow comedy, action; but he really shows his acting chops in this character. He’s great.
Jimmy smelled the "cookin" being the opportunity...and he did indeed get "hungry" resembling his greed which lead to a failed attempt at stiffing Manny.
Kevin McRae A good cook knows not to wait till people get hungry to start cooking. You start when they are NOT hungry, have plenty of time to cook w/o pressure, and the aroma when done will MAKE them hungry. Leading them by their noses ...
michoppy183 that's William Forsythe. .. he's actually in alot of great movies.. very underrated actor... never been a leading man but very phenomenal character actor
Leelan Lusero He’s a really cool guy as well. I work in a hotel that gets quite a bit of celebrities staying. William is one of the coolest most down to earth actors I’ve met.
And Nucky had to pick Manny over Jimmy as a more loyal long term ally. Didn't see Harrow's revenge coming. Yet that was brought on because he couldn't let angela's memory fade without justice
sparkydeltorro Indeed. Jimmy was an exceptional thug, but the finer points of being a 'boss' such as Nucky - Jimmy was more or less way in over his head.
I think the reason why Nucky didn't seem to mind that Manny killed Angela was because Jimmy basically killed her when he fucked over Manny.

IMO, Boardwalk Empire was the best all around show ever. "The wire " is a close 2nd but, BWE has an unbelievable amount of set design, wardrobe, and period auto mobiles that was an Herculean effort to get just right.
@Northern Wolf exactly, but it didn't help that Nucky treated him like shit when he got back from war, and actually was mad a Jimmy for even going to war. He was fucked either way trying to please Nucky
Of course he was mad, he raised Jimmy basically, and set him up for political success, meanwhile James dumbass is off at college having sex with his mom and beating up professors. He volunteered for the war, he wasn't some victim of the draft. He threw everything away Nucky built between the two.

Freaking love William Forsythe!
The writers of this show were too good honestly. None of the dialogue ever seems forced, it just flows so naturally. The casting was superb.

IMO, Boardwalk Empire was the best all around show ever. "The wire " is a close 2nd but, BWE has an unbelievable amount of set design, wardrobe, and period auto mobiles that was an Herculean effort to get just right.
If you like a “no PC” type of show the sopranos is worth watching too
actor did a great job! Manny is friendly yet intimidating
William Forsythe was badass as Capone back in the old TV series "The Untouchables"
Never understood Jimmy blowing it all up with Manny. Ended up costing him everything.
Supremely well acted, awesome dialogue, just immense!!!
3:02: “Mr Harrow will be in touch”
Yes... yes he certainly will
it was such a nice scene, I'm really glad everything worked out for everyone in the end.
Avram was a great character, wish we saw more of him
"I just got creamsicles in mine." Probably a lie: Jimmy is so cool ice cream wouldn't melt in his mouth.
I loved Manny's character. He was legit af.
Manny is like if a giant bear became a man
The wire, sopranos and this show had such great acting. Superb series
I’ve always been in love with this time period. And this show scratches that itch so gooood ❤
I love the beginning where Jimmy says.. You talked to him about the cash up front.
Manny gives me chills!
Micky Dolye is actually a Ralph Mouth impersonation from Happy Days.
Horvitz voice was all nice when asking Harrow, "what happened to you?".
He tried to scare Jimmy and Jimmy didn't even bat an eye. So awesome.
Such an amazing actor. He should've been more popular
Mickey Doyle is the best character
“But between u and me my shine box is filled with shoes that look like fucking mirrors”
Jimmy wanted all the power without putting in the work
@Northern Wolf exactly, but it didn't help that Nucky treated him like shit when he got back from war, and actually was mad a Jimmy for even going to war. He was fucked either way trying to please Nucky
Of course he was mad, he raised Jimmy basically, and set him up for political success, meanwhile James dumbass is off at college having sex with his mom and beating up professors. He volunteered for the war, he wasn't some victim of the draft. He threw everything away Nucky built between the two.
i just love how Manny is jovial and laughing the whole way through until he threatens Jimmy. after that he is stone faced and serious.
Avram was my favorite character, I wish they did more with him.
Avram is the only man here who doesnt get violently murdered in the end
What u mean?? The only one is maybe the cook
@@viciazzo avram is the cook
@@caseylayton4898 😁😵
Forsythe is a great actor btw
02:58 that laugh
this show had so many great characters
Now they have that cooked liver and onions and no one to eat it.
I genuinely liked Manny as a character, I was pissed they killed him off and let characters like Gyp Rosetti exist longer.
Manny wouldn't have been dead if he didn't kill Jimmy's wife, that was a dark twist from him ngl
I think this is William Forsythe's best work. In this series. Amazing.
That's the same guy that did Gravano in the 90's. William Forsythe plays a hell of a gangster.
So many awesome characters in this show!
