Chalkys best line about narcisse, “he’s just a n**ga with a dictionary” 😂
Jeffrey Wright nailed the part of Narcisse. Loved the character, the way he spoke, part evangelist preacher part ideological philosopher and a 2 bit criminal mind with a vocabulary. This show had great characters.
An incredible role that Jeffrey crushed. This scene when he says "what shall we do Mr. White, what shall we do?" was the beginning of the end for Chalky.
"....Im from Texas"....Love Chalky.
Hell Yeah...I'm from Texas Mane🤟🏿
All that other Mumbo-jumbo I don't give no F🤬z about get on outta here!!
A true American. Now a days, a century later, you have people so eager to trace their roots and identify as anything but.

Narcisse: "Do you know your Bible, Mister White?"
Chalky: "Better than I know you."
Narcisse: "I don't know you at all."
Chalky: "See? That wasn't so hard, was it."
"I am a man. I have business with Mr. Madden, but I am not *his* man." That's some damn good acting and writing.
What that mean?
@@walterkersting1362 Sounds like him and Madden are business partners but he in no way belongs to Madden
@@walterkersting1362 My hunch is that for a black man in the rackets back then, the assumption would be that he was working for someone else rather than running his own business. Chalky calling him Madden's man is (maybe unintentionally) disrespecting him, and Narcisse is correcting him.
(Sort of like in another scene, when he and Rothstein agree to go into the heroin business together and Rothstein insists on large bills because Narcisse runs a numbers game, implying that Narcisse is small-time.)
walter kersting it means he minds his damn business.
Jeffrey wright is good
Jeffrey Wright is a drama teacher's dream .Never once have i seen Jeffrey Wright in a performance , only the caracters he played.
He was great as a guy named peoples in the movie shaft
@@natemartinez4595 True...and as Dr.Narcisse in Board Walk Empire.
It's like he isn't acting. He is the Dr.
Agreed. He is a stunning actor.
Of course he is Jeffrey Wright playing ,very good btw,the Role of Doc Narcisse and not became Doctor Narcisse. Its an Art not an Psychosis.
Jeffery Wright and Michael K. Williams...what a helluva combination. Two of my favorite actors.
Two very different but great performances. Thumbs up to both of them.
Narcisse composed himself in such a way that he took control of every negotiation or conversation he was involved in.
His vocabulary left people perplexed as to what he was really thinking. His only problem was belittling those around him into disliking him fervently.
If he would have kept quiet more and let other people talk more he’d come across as less of a pompous prick
Hoover put him in his place, like a boss.
This is making me want to go binge watch the series again.
I remember hating Narcisse whilst watching the show. Now watching it back its because he was such a great character.
Jeffery Wright is a fantastic actor
Jeffery Wright knows his our history, libyans , Libyans were Moors .Mr white don't know his own history .
The most boring underwritten character in the series. Poor cheese
Online English your abs insane. I’m rewatching for the third time and this is by far the best season and his character is great. You’re supposed to hate him ..... 🙄🤦♂️
@@jeffbillingsel7389 Yes we heard the first time.
He is but I hate this character
Just heard the sad news of his passing @the age of 54, Chalky White aka actor Michael K Williams REST IN PEACE 😔💔

The only thing I wanted was for Chalky to take out the good old doctor.
Great Minds
He did take him out. He humiliated him in the last scene they were in together.
@@mysterytrain3 but in that scene didn't dr's guys kill him
@@rillyjo5810...Yeah, but the Dr. was proud of his efforts in civil rights, and when Chalky told him, 'ain't nobody free", it was an insult to him. Chalky got the best of him, and got Daughter Maitland's career on track. He won that battle with the Dr.
I wanted that to, but after rewatching it it would been to predictable thats why richard never became nucky hired killer like everybody wanted after season 3........Boardwalk Empire very underated show
"What shall we do Mr. White?" What shall.....we do?"
The Dr reminds me of Moriarty from Sherlock Holmes.
"The negro in question." Possibly the best line in the show.
Jeffery Wright would've fit right in with Deadwood.
And his character Dr. Narcisse would've been a worthy opponent for any and every cutthroat that show had to offer during its short run.
You heard what I said Al.
he would have had the hoopleheads eating out of his mouth. But that was the late 1800s in the middle of nowhere - this is NYC and NJ in the 1920s. If someone like Narcisse really showed up in deadwood he'd probably be killed pretty quickly.
I'm from Texas...
Our roots go deeper than that
@Samwell
Its the details within the context of these scripts, that make it deep and a good watch.
@Samwell 😧
Two exceptional actors..............Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The doctor knew how to play the respect card well in order to keep things civil and productive.
Masterful dramatic dialogue between Jeffrey Wright and Michael Kenneth Williams.
I absolutely loved Jeffrey Wright in this role!
Jeffrey Wright. Very underrated actor.
As Hoover would say to Narcisse in Farewell Daddy Blues, "you're just a peddler and a pimp." With all his pinup verses and sermons, he makes himself out to be a prophet or a dude with a dictionary, as Chalky describes him to be. Yet, the Doc's primary agenda is to motivate himself into the thrill of demeaning people to his level.
The scene where Hoover dragged Narcisse down to where he really belonged was one of the best in the show.
Omar and Chalky White!
Michael K Williams is a great actor.
Two real good actors who know how to feed off each.
There was no reason for nucky and chalky not to kill the Dr.
It's fascinating how the series subtly addresses the advent of "Afrocentrist" thought. They already thought they were "the Libyans" although in reality the ancient Libyans were Berbers, the Moors were Berbers, the African Americans do not have the slightest kinship with these peoples of North Africa who are actually the current Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt
Actually the ones you cited were the invaders who supplanted those lands and became the dominant inhabitants of that area. It’s no different than when the Europeans invaded in America and took it from the Indigenous people.
Well I mean the Romans call the continent of Africa: Libya and Libyans was the term they used to refer the residents living on the continent as Lybia
The guy is a very fine actor.
thats the point
This scene overflows with CLASS!
Everything about this villain was perfectly done: the concept, the writing and the acting. My only beef is his demise. It was gratuitous. He deserved better as such a complicated villain.
Did he deserve better? He was a black man in the 1930s. It didn’t matter what he thought he was. Chalky tried to tell him.
His death was no different from any other gangster in the series, and not one of them deserved better. Getting shot in the gut and the head is a relatively mild way to go.
true, its as if they ran out of time or ideas and just unceremoniously dumped him against a fence. but Chalky had a lame death too, so.
@@legion999 Compare his death to, let's say, Richard Harrow's death. There was a lot more thought put into it. Same with Jimmy Darmody. How about Chalky White? His death was built up with storyline--and storyline that went back to the previous season. Events leading up to their deaths, and the deaths themselves, were much better planned and written for. I am looking at this series as a story. As such, it is expected to be more than just a police blotter.
Personally, I feel the whole last season was done in a perfunctory manner. They set up Narcisse's fate, beautifully, at the end of the previous season. And yet they glossed over it in order to finish the season earlier. It was as though they were intentionally hurrying the demise of the series, which is something that many of us Boardwalk fans resented.
@@telloboi This is a story, a work of fiction and not a real life account. They had a dynamic villain that they hastily dumped in the last season.
The good doctor came at the king and didn’t miss. Sadly Richard harrow came at the dr and did miss...
I didn’t like the Doctor with his smug attitude and he got what he had coming . Never underestimate anyone
Our roots indeed have been reduced to plantations in Texas and Tennessee but go much deeper than that. Great script for phenomenal artists.
I kept rooting for chalky during this whole thing, I was so sad by the end.
"I'm from Texas."
One is actually an American, in his heart, and the other is stuck way far in a past that has no actual connection to him.
Similar to when the Sopranos crew visit Italy only to find they are completely worlds apart from actual Italians.
This is one of those things that people need to realize about the whole "native" and "immigrant" argument. No, we are not all immigrants. Some of us actually do come from certain places, and others do not. It's neither better, nor worse, it is simply a fact. Know where you really come from, who is really imporant in your life, and what you really want to achieve before you saunter off the coil.

Kblogg 777 i always thought he was supposed to be elijah muhammed
what's a 5 percenter?
He's based on Casper Holstein from what I've seen. Narcisse is a christian too, hence him being killed outside his church.

-Better then i know you.
-You dont know me at all.
JAJAJAJAJAJ
Looks like the camera lens was smeared with grease.
We seriously have a problem with words and history. The confusion and fighting will just continue.
Dr. Narcissistic I mean Narcisse: 🗣 Do you know your Bible Mr. White?
Chalky White: 🗣 Betta then I know you!!!
🔥🔥🔥
I thought the show went downhill here it made no sense why nucky didn't just let chalky kill narcisse or do it himself. It's hard to believe nucky hadn't learned to kill any outsider pushing in right off the bat at this point
Patrick Talbot he should have been killed after a couple episodes. It ruined chalkys character
At the time, Narcisse was under the protection of Masseria, with whom Nucky had just made peace after the Rosetti incident.
That's why people like you shouldn't be allowed with any important devices. if you watched the chain of events in the show you'd know exactly why it would be foolish for nucky to get into that
Couldn't agree with you more. It pissed me off how Narcisse survived to the very end. Same with Phil Leotardo in the Sopranos, he was insufferable as well, yet he ended up lasting until the very end.
@@liamroberts7512 No he didn't, Narcisse got popped in the final season, once Lucky and Myer officially made their move to take over.
BH is probably the only show that has ever truly done justice to the black underworld during the heyday of "gangsters" in America. They were around as long as any others.
True anytime we think of Gangs back then it's always Italians, but every race had their turn and boardwalk kinda showed that. Jews with manny and Rothstein, and Irish with Nucky. As with history everyone's turn eventually came to a end with the next minority taking power
I wish there was more shows about gangsters in the 30s and 20s. It would be really cool
This appears to have been recorded on a toaster.
great way to threaten someone without threatening them
The fun part is, whatever part of Africa the Dr is from, it's nowhere near Libya.
This is true. Libya wasn't involved at all in the slave trade
The Dr is based off of Marcus Garvey (who was from Jamaica).
@@nickng645 The Nations that sit around the edge of the Meditteranian Sea... that happen to sit coincidentally on the Continent iof Africa ... they are Arab countries, not Black.
Even the Berbiers arent Black.
@@SuperChuckRaney I'm African, I know
@@nickng645 In this tv show, It adds to the hilarity of ignorance about the Dr.
All the preaching about "Homeland of Libya" and the big words he loves to use.
Then him selling heroin.
It doesnt seem a 'duality' just ignorance.
And he is not sophisticated at all. He has no idea how to work againt J Edgar Hoover.
Shoulda just chosen deportation.
Why can’t they just bury the hatchet and double team the PAWG?

“I am civilized” *has someone killed and throws their corpse on the side of the road*
Chalky underestimated Dr Valentine.
True, if he hadn't he'd of killed him and her right there.
BOY IM FROM TEXAS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Chalky said, “You ain’t nothing but a nigga with a dictionary” 😂
Excellent discourse... Hostile with no outward hostility.
Chalky: I was in the Wire mothefucka
Dr Narcisse: And I have played Hamlet son who has fucked his motha
Narcisse is the Libyan man
Narcisse pushes heroin on the "Libyan" people, HIS people, he's a fake and a con artist like his decendants, Sharpton and the rest of the race baiters.
Behind the manners, education, he's a punk thug.
Chalky White sees right through his genteel hypocrisy and Narcisse hates him for it
But the mother contient is where this bs stems from.
@@WadedaMinute huh?
This Doctor character is so shady and mysterious. Who is he and where he came from? Like he just dropped from the sky from another planet. Libya I guess 😅
Ay look it's "Dr narsissy"
So... Basically.. what you're saying _Dr._ Narcisse is.... We wuz kangs?
Essentially, yes.
Intelligent people have clubs .
Narcisse pissed me off. He was a gangster that thought he was smarter that everyone else because he spoke like a snob with big words.
I wish Chalky and The Dr got on the same page
Which episode is this?
The Libyans 🇱🇾 Lol
I’m Team Chalky White !
As much as I hated Narcisse you have to admit he had courage and was never ashamed of being "colored". Later when he takes over the club we see him sitting in the white section much to the dismay of them.
Episode ??
What’s he talking about, “Libyans”. Surely Libyans are Arab or Berber people from north of the Sahara whereas most African Americans hail from sub-Saharan Africans.
Does Jeffrey Wright look sub-saharan to you? If so, then you are misinformed and non-perceptive.
@@TariqBusy The ethnicity of Jeffrey’s ancestors is irrelevant.
Ancient Berbers are black people. Dr Narcisse is talking about the Hamitic tribe of the Lubim. Narcisse knows his Moorish history unlike Chalky White. Chalky is of the Kingdoms of Fez and Morocco in the American Levant unbeknownst to himself which would make him a negro/black/displaced person.
@@AtmaureanNoble7 You make me laugh so much Afrocentrists, Ancient Libyans were Berbers (White and Arab people ethnically) North Africa has absolutely nothing to do with sub-Saharan Africa where African Americans come from, your ancestors it is the West African countries, Togo, Cameroon, Cogo, Ivory Coast but certainly not North Africa which belong to a completely different civilization. What's funny is that you fantasize about a population that enslaved and castrated your real ancestors, they must be angry with you from up there.
@@Nyaaa-uwu ancient berbers are "negros" or Moors to be more specific sorry to bust your bubble.

" civilised " 🤔
This place ain't no such thing as civilized. It's only men so in love with greed he has forgotten himself and found only appetites.
'vs'
Chalky was out of his depth with narcisse
I was glad when the mob donE Narcisse in, I really don’t like him.
Dicky and Dun had a bit of disagreement? This is what this lose is all about ? Entertainment value ! You mean there's no law suite out this? Lawyers? So they finally iron out 10% or they loose the entertainment.
whos potato made it to this scene?
ONLY time someone wants to truly be pious... they mention history to enforce an opinion... Where this guy (amazing actor) just reminds me of so many my tribesman mimic the "wrong" white people at the time just to know we weren't having it when trying to do what they do and take, just to stop by and bring up "are we not of the same tribe". Had he been, I'm sure he'd understand the concept
Shouldnt it be ethiopians?
Yes it would make more sense
+René Moncayo Yeah they messed that up
+René Moncayo You're right, it should have been Ethiopian. Ethiopian used to be a common word in the english lexicon, until the early 20th century. It derives from the ancient greek work for "burnt skinned", and was used to describe black people.
You guys dont understand, Narcisse folows a Pan africamism rethoric, wich begun in America, amoung African american sociey. Arround 1919 or so. This rethoric is full of nonsense claims ignoring scientific basis on this issues.
For example That African americans are descendent from Lybians, and Moors and what not. If you want just google Pan Africamism and its origins.
despite in theory the ideology if we can call it that?! being full of good intentions.
The show didnt messed it up. It is part of the Dr.Narcisse character.
+Knight Heaven That's not Pan-Africanism and whoever told you that is a jackass. Pan-Africanism is the sense that all people descendant of Africa are one nation particularly since other races view us as such. It also calls for self-determinism for African people.

Narcissi: blah blah Libyan blah blah blah Libyan blah blah blah blah Libyan
This role didn't fit Chalky. At all. He was better in The Wire.
They just replaced the word "moor" with "libyan" but we all knew what was implied...You can tell he knew the truth about the motherland and no one could convince him diffrent. Yet Chalky had never seen Africa nor did he care to see it. He was not a threat to the US government as much as Dr Narcisse
Yes, but he's talking about the Hamitic salient tribe of the Lubim and Lehabim which are the Libyans and Mizraim. Thats why he asked did he know his Bible.
It's fascinating how the series subtly addresses the advent of "Afrocentrist" thought. They already thought they were "the Libyans" although in reality the ancient Libyans were Berbers, the Moors were Berbers, the African Americans do not have the slightest kinship with these peoples of North Africa who are actually the current Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt
@@Nyaaa-uwuThey love stealing people's history. They love stealing in general.
You are missing the main point, if you look at some ancient maps of Africa, you will find that Libya was one of the labels placed on the entire continent of Africa, just like Ethiopia. So to call himself Libyian, simply means African.
