    Gandolfini pre-Sopranos

    While I have never cared much for the horribly overrated The Sopranos, James Gandolfini's performance in this subdued short film is rather interesting. Waking up one day to an empty apartment, Gandolfini believes his wife packed up all of their belongings and left him. Trying to figure out what happened, he tries to find his wife, hoping to reconcile in his own verbose and melodramatic way. While the resolution of the film wasn't all that unpredictable, at least it didn't try to pull any punches or dazzle us with some wacky ending.

    Too Much Alcohol

    I have to admit I drink my share of beer. But this short subject is done beautifully. If you drink you will understand this film, if you have friends that drink, they will understand it too. If I didn't know better I would think Rod Serling wrote this gem.

    It,in all essence,is a shocker. The photography is simple and adds a great realism. You have to see it from the very beginning. If you don't,you'll think that you are watching a dream sequence from "The Sopranos".Spicy language and Gandolfini's remorse will keep you riveted for the whole 18 minutes. We should have more "wake up" films like "A Whole New Day". It's an inspiration to any young ambitious directors-to-be.

    It begins, and ends the same

    I am a huge fan of Jimmy Gandolfini, so this short film amused me greatly because of it's shortness, and abruptness. Gandolfini often gets stereo-typed in bad guy/mafia roles, but he also is usually a bad husband in movies as well. This one is no exception, but it's amusing to see he's "married" to the actress who plays "Charmaine Bucco" on the Sopranos. We fans can take creative liberty and say this is what would have happened had he married this character instead of Carmella perhaps?

    It's is interesting, but predictable. In the end, did he learn a lesson? Nope, and what is amusing is that is human nature! When it's all laid out for us, we continue with our behavior patterns as though nothing ever happened.

    Still an excellent short flick, and one that I recommend to anyone who loves a short but to the point family situation story.
