The soundtrack drove me nuts. Is Buscemi's character historical or a fiction? It's historical fiction. They changed the last name from Johnson to Thompson and Buscemi is much smaller than the real life Nucky. But he was the political power in Atlantic City during the twenties and one of the most powerful political figures in NJ during that time.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
