Prohibition
HBO & PBS recently hosted a luncheon in NYC to discuss the fact and fiction surrounding two of this fall's biggest TV programs: HBO's Boardwalk Empire (Season 2 premiering 9/25) and Ken Burns's "Prohibition" (premiering 10/2). In this video HBO Co-President Richard Plepler, Boardwalk Empire Creator/Executive Producer Terence Winter, and filmmakers Lynn Novick and Ken Burns discuss both Boardwalk Empire and "Prohibition," and why the prohibition era is so fascinating to today's audiences.
