2023-09-06 16:45:43 +0000 UTCYeah I love this ep. Sopranos was deep in its run by this point and eps like this really set it apart from anything else at the time. Chris at the festival is one of the most beautiful sequences I’ve ever seen. It’s sad yeah but inevitable. I always considered BB/Jesse scene with Jane shooting for the first time a slight homage to that scene. And just stylistically sopranos needle drops are second to none. I think that’s something that gets lost in the YouTube edits. The role music plays in the entire series. Not your guys fault obv with copyright but it was def a big part of why I loved the show initially. Imperioli is unreal in the flashback. Just stellar stuff

2023-09-06 14:17:16 +0000 UTCI think the guys were unsettled by the episode. Chris relapsing is pretty common for addicts. Particularly heroin addicts I've read, I'm no expert. Chris can come back from this. He's not working the program. You are meant to stay away from people and situations that will trigger you. This isn't the first time that Tony sabotaged Chris sobriety. At the dinner scene with Tony and Tony B., Tony was berating Chris for being a pain in the ass with his recovery. In a couple of episodes Chris has a great line about Tony's attitude about his recovery. I think what unsettled the guys is this illusion that Tony and Chris have an actual bond. Their last scene together shows how threadbare the actual "bond" is with them. What makes me nuts is how Tony put his life on the line for crates of wine. Everything he and his family went through wasn't enough to keep him from doing something stupid to alleviate his boredom.

2023-09-06 14:04:05 +0000 UTCNo this is the Best episode. The Virgin Mary visited Paulie because there is still hope for him as well as to make him go back to his mother/aunt and to forgive his biological mother the nun who is in Heaven. It's beautiful.

2023-09-05 21:43:19 +0000 UTCIt's too bad you guys didn't like this episode. It's many Sopranos fans favorites/highly ranked. It's a bit deep and not necessarily "plot driven" but the subtext and deeper meaning is where it stands out. Chris is an unhealable, broken man that will never truly overcome his trauma, drug addiction, or Adriana. There's a reason she's brought up so much in this episode, with her mother, Carmella, Chris and Tony, you can feel her missing presence. Chris has this new life now, marriage, baby on the way, new house, but he's empty. Him and Tony trying to relive some glory is short-lived cause they have nothing else left. When Tony says "I feel like it lost some of its pop" he's not just talking about his wine, but everything and mainly him and Chris's relationship. The main theme of the show is "The Regularness of Life is too hard" which Chris says back in season 1. Melfi asks Tony if he's bored. This theme is really prevalent in this episode. And Pauly, it takes him seeing The Virgin Mary to go and rekindle his relationship with his aunt/ma. Despite Paulie's Psychopathic tendencies, he's one of the only characters to listen and acknowledge the signs.

2023-09-05 20:59:53 +0000 UTCThe scene where Chrissy relapses is one of the most depressing in the series. You can tell how much he's hurting on the inside and he keeps going back to the stuff in spite of all the meetings, sponsors, interventions. As someone who's struggled with substance use before I feel Christopher. No matter how good life may seem, there's this irritation towards life you'll always have that nothing else solves. It's destructive and takes everything from you but who cares because in the moment you're at peace. And that's why it can be so hard to remain on the straight and narrow. I've said my piece.
