Boardwalk Empire Gets a Premiere Date

Despite some slight apprehension after watching the most recent trailer — the one with Steve Buscemi as Tony Soprano in period dress — there are few upcoming series that have me more excited than HBO’ s Boardwalk Empire . That happens when the pilot is directed by Martin Scorsese, written and created by Sopranos stalwart Terence Winter, and stars Buscemi, Michael Shannon, Michael Pitt and Michael K.

Well, the news just came into Movieline HQ: The series will premiere on Sunday, September 19 at 9pm, meaning Mad Men will have some testosterone-y company on your DVR.

Watching a filmmaker interpret those events dramatically demands that we trust him or her implicitly: A fiction film based on real events is a kind of shaped reality, which isn’t, of course, reality at all. The best we can do is to trust a filmmaker’s instincts, and his heart.
