Anyone else watch it? If you're a sopranos fan, you will really enjoy it.
The first half focuses on dickie maltasanti, Christopher's dad, his dad (played by Ray Liotta) and the various family members in the early 60s. Lots of callbacks to the cast. Even narrated by the present day dead Christopher, which was an interesting writer choice.
The story also discusses the race riots, and tensions between the blacks and the italians and intertwines them quite nicely.
Towards the end they shift focus to the end of the sixties and Tony soprano as a teenager and how he is slowly getting pulled into the life.
The ending basically left a huge gaping hole for a sequel as there are big story lines left hanging.
Well acted and cinematography was great. Story is very interesting and shows a lot more background on the major characters as young men. You find out for example that Jr was a conniving shit even back then.
Go watch it.
