I didn’t see any eulogies for James Gandolfini earlier
this year that didn’t talk about how surprisingly good an actor he was and
capable of real heart in spite of his tough-guy persona and sometime
typecasting. Prior to “The Sopranos” he mostly portrayed heavies and after that
he became indelibly linked to the role of Tony. But for a taste of just how
incredible he could be even if you strip away the rough veneer and harsh
language, take a look at the romantic comedy Enough Said, where he and co-star Julia Louis-Dreyfus are divorcees
who start dating one another.
