Introduction to The Sopranos

The Sopranos was released on 10 January 1999 by The HBO Network, with the movie being directed by David Chase and written by Chase, Steve Zaillian. With its famously sharp dialogue, violence, and comic moments of absurdity, it has often been considered one of the greatest television series created. The movie starts with an introduction to Tony Soprano’s life, with him having a conversation with his psychiatrist Dr. Jennifer Melfi. The next level of the story is Tony’s family life, including his wife Carmela, children–17-year-old daughter Meadow and 13-year-old son Anthony Jr. Also being part of his family are his mother Livia and Uncle Junior (Junior Soprano) who also plays a dominant role in the Mafia family that Tony runs at this point.

Story of The Sopranos

The Sopranos is a TV show that ran for six seasons, New Line Cinema announced plans to produce a film adaptation of the series which was eventually slated for. David Chase and other members of The Sopranos cast are involved with the production of the film but were not impressed with how it turned out. The film was directed by Allen Coulter and stars James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano, Edie Falco as Carmela Soprano (née Gualtieri), and Lorraine Bracco as Dr. Jennifer Melfi among others from the tv series.

The film begins with Tony Soprano, a New Jersey mob boss, visiting a psychiatrist for anger management reasons who agrees to see Tony’s daughter Meadow Soprano as well. Tony is involved in a plot by his uncle Junior to kill rival mobster neighbor Todd Tenneran due to a dispute over the “ownership” of Mahwah, New Jersey and decides at the last moment not to follow through with it, an act that his wife Carmela Soprano did not know about until they were driving home after the event and she finds out he decided against it.
