What Fans Never Knew About The Sopranos
It may have first hit screens over 20 years ago, but The Sopranos is still remembered as one of the greatest TV shows of all time. And there's a whole story behind the scenes that even the diehard fans may not know. This is the untold truth of The Sopranos.
People assume that The Sopranos could have had any number of different influences. There's the obvious, of course, like the work of acclaimed directors Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, and the not so obvious, like creator David Chase's love for the work of arthouse hero Federico Fellini. But fans and critics alike have long speculated about what exactly came from where on The Sopranos, and the theories are pretty much endless. However, in an interview printed in the series compendium The Sopranos Sessions, Chase cited a single crucial inspiration for The Sopranos: his relationship with his mother.
While Chase has since explained on the record that his childhood wasn't unhappy by any measure, he still maintains his toxic relationship with his own mom was the model for Tony's Soprano's relationship with his mother, Livia Soprano. Even though the relationship was played up for TV, for obvious reasons, specific elements of the relationship did make it to the screen. Livia's constant talking down to Tony, to name one detail, came right from Chase's life.
The Sopranos may have ended up on HBO, but David Chase's story of a mafioso mired in mommy issues wasn't always intended for the small screen. Originally, Chase envisioned the project as a feature comedy about a gang boss and his overbearing mother. When it came to casting, Chase hoped all-star movie criminal Robert De Niro would play Tony and Anne Bancroft, who played Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate, would play Livia. Keep watching the video to see what fans never knew about The Sopranos.
