"Show me the hero and I will write you a tragedy." These are the words of F.'s famous quote. Scott Fitzgerald giving the title of a neglected HBO series you may have missed. Following the conclusion of the shower and journalist David Simon era defined drama "The Wire", What began as a radically complex look at Baltimore's drug trafficking and during his five seasons outwardly expanded to cover every aspect of city life, Simon initially tried to bring Spin-off from a series to life Before setting up in the war in Iraqi minisers "generation kills" and the drama set by Orleans "porch".

The common thread through these shows, despite their radically different settings, is a unique, Picaresian perspective, following the different characters whose stories may not be cut directly, but the consequences of their actions have far -reaching influences that they could never be aware of. When "porch" ended in 2013, Simon followed him with another miniser, this time bringing his biggest A-Spink Starvet to date: Oscar Isaac. Despite Isaac's starvet, "Show Me Hero" was neglected, getting just one nomination and winning for Oscar Isaac at the Golden Globes, but there is no recognition for Emmy. However, it is a mandatory viewing for The Wire's fans who want to look at the field view of a crucial moment in American history that they probably are probably unaware of.

Based on the book of the same name from the writer of the Yorkyor Times, Lisa Belkin, "Show me the hero" tells the story of the Yonkers, the youngest mayor of Yorkyork, Nick Vasisco. He played with textured and layered by Oscar Isaac, Vasasco's mandate as mayor is defined by a federal judge who ordered the city to be desserted. The verdict requires the middle class and mostly the white city of Yonkers to build 200 units of public housing on the east side of the city. Vasasko beat the election by promising to fight the judge's order, but after the city lost its appeal to the Supreme Court and must pay its $ 11m legal account, Vasasco realizes that they have no choice but to adhere.

Unfortunately for Vasasco, everyone in the Yonkers disagree and "Show me a hero" illustrated in torture details, the city council's efforts to respect the judicial orders and the increased hostility of the community. Failing to build the risks of housing, the city's bankruptcy, as a fine of $ 100 a day, fast balloons up to nearly $ 1 million a day, forcing basic city services to close hundreds of city workers who face layoffs.

To fill the city of Yonkers, Simon has so far thrown his biggest ensemble. In addition to Oscar Isaac, Alfred Molina plays a member of the City Council who refuses to adhere to the referee (played by Bob Balaban) to decay the city, while Jimim Bellushi plays Vasiko's opponent in the upcoming elections. Vinona Ryder and Catherine Kinner play "worried citizens" of the Yonkers who fight with Vasixo at every turn, while Jonon Bortal is one of his only allies, a civil rights lawyer who represents the local chapter of the NAAFP. And fans of "The Wire" there will recognize detective Leicester Fremon (Clark Peters) as the organizer of the local community, helping to bring housing projects to life.

While "Show Me Hero" failed to light a fire storm when aired in 2015, Simon followed him with three more series of HBO, including the play of the porn industry in the 1970s "The Deuce" and adaptation of the Alternative History of Philip Roth's "Read our review here). Simon returned to Baltimore with "We own this city", which gave the audience boots on the ground in today's US police work.
