  1. Boardwalk Empire' quick recap: Arnold Rothstein makes his move, Sunday's episode of "Boardwalk Empire" was written by Steve Kornacki and directed by Brad Anderson. Between the looming election and the damage control following an attempt on his brother Eli's life, Atlantic City Treasurer Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) seems to be spinning many of his plates in the air. Some key events: • A matured Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt) returns to Atlantic City after spending months in Chicago only to find Agent Nelson Van Alden (Michael Shannon) waiting in the wings ready to arrest him on five counts of murder. • Margaret (Kelly Macdonald) decides to helps Madame Jeunet (Anna Katarina) when she tells her that Nucky is charging her double rent and may have to close the shop. • As a result of a weakening political machine, Nucky decides to shake things up as he positions a new Atlantic City Mayor and acting sheriff.• In New York, Nucky Thompson-rivals the D'Alessio brothers are introduced to Arnold Rothstien (Michael Stuhlberg) and hatch a plan against the Atlantic City Treasurer. "I understand that you’re interested in the liquor business," Rothstein asks them. He goes on to say that he can only see going into the bootlegging business one way -- with good hooch, not the diluted "rot gut" kind. "There's a growing demand for good whiskey in the United States," Rothstein tells them. "And I'm not talking about the swill you stirred up in your chamber pot. I'm talking about the best scotch from Britain." He wants to set up a business to import scotch and have ships with crews waiting outside the three mile limit so all they have to do is smuggle it ashore. Rothstein says that the ports in Atlantic City are ideal for their kind of distribution. The only snag? "The man that runs that city," Rothstein tells them. "Normally I would make a deal with such a man," he tells them. "But I find Nucky Thompson greedy and unreasonable." Before they leave, Rothstein has the D'Alessios and Doyle sign life insurance policies to ensure he won't get chiseled by them. "Think of it as an incentive -- not to screw things up," Luciano says.
  2. Boardwalk Empire Episode 9 Recap: Histories Collide A bit of history might help to best understand the themes of Sunday night Boardwalk Empire …quot; and to shed some light on some sharp contrasts in style. First, in 1920s Ireland, Nucky arrives. The remaining ripples of the Irish War of Independence are spreading through the British Isles. Both sides agreed to a ceasefire in 1921, but as with any uneasy truce, violence continues today. Still, Nucky takes advantage of the situation as usual: They need high-powered machine guns, he needs fine Irish whiskey. The new setting also presents a culture shock to Nucky. The IRA soldiers are austere men, with dedication to their passionate fight for freedom. John, the acting leader, is gaunt, minimalist, cool, and clearly uncomfortable with Nucky's mercenary mission. And the juxtaposition of Nucky's finery and the IRA's puritanical black-and-white brings this personality clash into higher visual contrast. There is something quite modern about the stern cut of John's garb. It's a serious style not to be overlooked by the viewer, to say nothing of political affiliations. The second piece of history addresses the black community of Atlantic City. Knowing that Jimmy would not have the resources to handle a race strike, one of Nucky's last power plays before leaving office is to pull the switch on Chalky White's disgruntled constituency. The movement kicks off, headed by the menacing, muscular Dunn Pernsley. When Pernsley isn't inciting rebellion in his kitchen whites, he's a royal peacock, strutting into Chalky's office in a chambray waistcoat, plaid suit, and green Stetson. He's cocky, flamboyant, and gorgeous in his marginalized state. Interesting, too, since it's a way of dress we've seen Nucky sport since day one …quot; a kind of bold ownership of the styles of the day, underscored by daring color and loads of swagger. It's nice to see these moments happen simultaneously on the show, especially when it comes to the clothes. Both parties, subjugated by the societies around them, show rebellion and community through costume. Very different ways of dressing, sure, but both striking and meaningful …quot; to the context of the show, and to culture and history that's still relevant today.

  8. It takes an experienced beauty to maintain her composure while posing on the edge of a rock formation, but Carmen Kass manages to make even the most precarious poses look easy. In Cedric Buchet striking Vogue Japan story Kass is aloofly cool in designs from Loewe and Giorgio Armani chosen by stylist Sophia Neophitou. Playing with oversized proportions and dramatic shapes, Neophitou makes even the most sacklike outfits come alive with a little help from Carmen. model.com
