DVD Synopsis

This episode of the original cable TV series was shot on-location in Italy. New Jersey mob boss Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) travels with his top lieutenants, Paulie Walnuts (Tony Sirico) and Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli), to Naples, where he intends to negotiate a lucrative new deal for the car-jacking operation he's taken over from his Uncle Junior (Dominic Chianese). While Paulie attempts to ingratiate himself with the locals with little success, Christopher holes up in his hotel room with Tanno (Giuseppe Zeno), a new acquaintance, on a drug-addled bender that lasts the entire trip. Tony discovers that his distant relative Don Zi Vittorio (Vittorio Duse) has become senile, and that Zi's voluptuous, intelligent daughter, Annalisa (Sofia Milos), is the true boss. Tony is powerfully attracted to Annalisa, who reminds him of Dr. Melfi (Lorraine Bracco), but he has a difficult time negotiating business with a woman. They agree on a price for the stolen cars and Tony recruits one of Annalisa's most valuable men, Furio Giunta (Federico Castelluccio), to be his new enforcer. Back at home in the U.S., Angie Bompensiero (Toni Kalem) confesses to Carmela Soprano (Edie Falco) that she's unhappy in her marriage to Pussy (Vincent Pastore) and wants out, but Carmela, already questioning her marriage to Tony, urges Angie to stick with her husband. Spotted by an old acquaintance while meeting with his FBI contact, Pussy is later forced to murder his friend with a hammer. "Commendatori" aired Feburary 6, 2000. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

My husband started watching this series and every once in a while I would look up from the book I was reading to watch here and there. By the second season I gave up reading and just watched the show. I didn't think I would like it because it's about, the life and trials of the "New Jersey Mafia" and that kind of thing usually doesn't interest me, however this is a very well written show, with characters you'll love to hate and some that you might even find enduring. :)
Tony Soprano the NJ "boss" is one such character. He's ruthless, greedy, never faithful to his wife. BUT, is a good father, has a soft spot for animals and also his cousin (who he also refers to as his Nephew) Chris. Go figure! I didn't think the shows ending was the best in history, but the overall execellence of the series made up for it. A keeper for us.
Contains a lot of nudity, (T&A mostly) sex, drugs, language and a ton of violence.
