The entertainment community suffered a staggering loss with the passing of James Gandolfini but luckily one final performance from the man most known for his gangster persona on The Sopranos remains to be seen in the indie film, Enough Said. As a major change of pace for Gandolfini, he plays a vulnerable and sensitive man suffering from depression after a divorce.
Gandolfini plays against Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Seinfeld) with a confusing synopsis that reads: A divorced woman who decides to pursue the man she’s interested in learns he’s her new friend’s ex-husband.
Co-star Toni Collette said of Gandolfini’s performance, “He was just so generous, so funny, so sweet and a real teddy bear. I know he had certainly in the Sopranos but in a lot of roles was cast as a strong, influential dude and here he plays a character who’s compromised and confused and vulnerable.
Take a look at the trailer and see if you’ll try and support the final performance from a behemoth talent.
Enough Said is directed by Nicole Holofcener and stars James Gandolfini, Toni Collette, Catherine Keener, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. It opens on September 20.
