Your e-mail--and the cultural elite's obsession with the The Sopranos --reminds me of Angie's profound comment.
I think you've got one thing exactly right: The Sopranos works so well precisely because it is understated, because it is the opposite of the operatic Godfather . Together, The Godfather and The Sopranos make up some kind of whole, but here's the fundamental difference between them: Every mobster I've ever met imagines himself a player in The Godfather . I interviewed Sammy Gravano a few weeks ago and he said as much; The Godfather invested the lives of mobsters, who are in fact seedy and boring characters, with honor and drama.
Today's mobsters, too, are fluent in psychobabble and in the language of self-improvement, and Chase, of course, captures this beautifully (I will disagree with you on one thing at the outset: the writing on The Sopranos is better than the acting, not that there's anything really wrong with the acting.)
What I mean is, how much Culturebox-style commentary about The Sopranos can the public eat?
Now let me tell you where you're wrong (oh, how I love writing those words): I didn't say that mobsters aren't taking their cues from The Sopranos . What I said was that no self-respecting mobster would want to be a member of Tony Soprano's sad-sack crew.
