Summary
First, David Bianculli talks about the conclusion of the final season of The Sopranos. It begins on Sunday night.
Then, Joseph Gannascoli, who played mob captain Vito Spatafore on The Sopranos - that is until he got wacked. Before that, his character was "outed", having been spotted dancing in leather chaps at a gay bar. Gannascoli wrote a crime novel, A Meal to Die For about a mobster and gourmet chef who has been summoned to prepare a feast for the boss who is about to be sent to jail. (Original Airdate: 5/31/06)
Next, Lorraine Bracco, who is best known for her role as psychiatrist Dr. Jennifer Melfi on HBO's The Sopranos. As such, she has the unenviable job of treating mob boss Tony Soprano. She was nominated for an Academy Award for her performance in Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas, also about the mob. She played the wife of a mobster. Bracco wrote her memoir, On the Couch. (Original Airdate: 6/6/06)
Finally, David Edelstein, who reviews Grindhouse, the new double feature film by directors Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. [Broadcast Date: April 6, 2007]
