  • Boardwalk Empire: the Romantic Side of Crime and Capitalism
    Boardwalk Empire: The Romantic Side of Crime and Capitalism ASHLEY M. DONNELLY Boardwalk Empire, HBO’s series about Atlantic City during Prohibition, was adapted by Emmy Award-winning screenwriter and producer Terence Winter from Nelson Johnson’s Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City. The series is a beautifully scripted piece of historical fiction, beginning in 1919 on the boardwalk of Atlantic City on the eve of Prohibition. The protagonist, Enoch “Nucky” Thompson, is based loosely on the real-life Atlantic City politician Enoch L. Johnson. Nucky is Atlantic City’s treasurer, master schemer, and effective ruler of the city. The onset of Prohibition offers a new black market in the United States, and the ruling politicians and law enforcement agents of Atlantic City are eager for a piece of the pie, cheering as Nucky declares he will keep the city “wet as a mermaid’s twat,” despite the federal mandate. Nucky offers a unique vision of an American gangster with the aid of actor Steve Buscemi’s skill at performing this complex character. Nucky also helps bring Atlantic City alive, allowing it to shine as the centerpiece of the show, a show that encourages its audience to cheer for a crooked anti-hero and all of the antics of those that produce a narrative perpetuating an idea that corruption is an inevitable part of U.S. culture and that the black market and flesh trade are somehow linked with escapism and harmless civil disobedience. The Gangster From the rise of the mafia to the biker gangs of California, certain attributes have become associated with the archetype of “gangster:” he swaggers, he is physically dominant, he is quick to anger, his emotions are on the surface, and confrontation is not something he avoids, but often seeks.

Mit Aufkommen des Tonfilms übernahmen die Gangster die Leinwand und ziehen das Publikum seither in ihren Bann. Das Genre hat sich seit seinem Aufkommen in den 1930er Jahren stets weiterentwickelt, Anhänger gefunden und Schauspielgrößen hervorgebracht. Der Gangsterfilm als Subgenre des Kriminalfilms, prägt Generationen und lässt die Grenzen zwischen Recht und Unrecht, Gesetz und Kriminalität in den Augen der Betrachter verschwimmen. Diese Arbeit beschäftig sich im ersten Teil mit dem Gangsterfilm, seinem Entstehen und seinen wichtigsten Merkmalen. Des Weiteren wird die amerikanische Gangsterserie am Beispiel der Serie "Boardwalk Empire" vorgestellt und untersucht, ob sie sich vom klassischen Gangsterfilm unterscheidet, wenn ja in welcher Form und ist dies zu ihrem Nachteil? Die zweite Analyse der Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Gewaltdarstellung im klassischen Gangsterfilm und der Serie.
