The Sopranos: Series Finale Review

June 11, 2007

The SopranosThe Sopranos creator David Chase wrote and directed last night's final installment of the long-running HBO mob epic, and he gave fans a relatively uneventful and, at times, bizarre send-off after six seasons of award-winning drama.  The ending is what everyone will be talking about (or, more likely, complaining about) this morning, but the whole episode deserves careful examination.  After the tension of last Sunday's spectacular entry, the finale felt like a toothless epilogue, an hour of anticipation with no pay-off.

After the death of Jackie, Richie came back to a different mob family with Tony Soprano in charge.

What Are They Up To? The Sopranos' Drea De Matteo

June 5, 2007

the sopranosDrea De Matteo was popularly known as Adriana La Cerva on the HBO series, The Sopranos. Known as the long-time girlfriend turned fiancée of Christopher Moltisanti, Tony Soprano’s nephew and right-hand man, she grew up exposed to the mafia lifestyle. Initially, she portrayed a shallow and materialistic character but eventually became ambitious, business minded and concerned about Christopher’s best interests. Although she was relatively loyal to the mob, she became an easy target for the FBI. She tried to avoid giving up any serious information about the mob family but her deception eventually caught up with her after the FBI discovered her involvement in a murder. Later, she confessed everything to Christopher, but Christopher’s loyalty to his family turned out to be greater than his love for her. In the episode entitled “Long Term Parking,” Tony had Silvio Dante put her to death. After her death in 2004, she appeared on several episodes in the form of dream sequences.

The Sopranos Actress Speaks About Her Depression and Infidelity

May 28, 2007

the sopranosLorraine Bracco, cast member on The Sopranos, guest starred in The Oprah Winfrey Show on Thursday, May 24, supposedly to promote Bracco Wines, a line of eight Italian wines in partnership with the 52-year old actress. Additionally, she candidly spoke about her infidelity on husband Harvey Keitel and her years of denial on her depression.

Bracco was first married to Daniel Guerard but after a brief period married actor Harvey Keitel, popularly known for movies like Pulp Fiction, The Piano and Reservoir Dogs, and had a daughter with him named Stella Keitel. Despite the long-term relationship, the marriage went down the drain due to Bracco’s cheating on him with actor Edward James Olmos, known for playing Admiral William Adama on Battlestar Galactica. This resulted in a five-year legal battle over the custody of their child Stella, in which she was forced to file for bankruptcy. Bracco and Olmos got married but eventually filed for divorce.
