That is factual but also something factual is he was a well-known cocaine user in his early life and later life.😊

James Gandolfini will always be missed he was a wonderful actor! ❤✌

RIP James Joseph Gandolfini Jr. 1961-2013

Atleast he died in his ancestors country, Italy.

The idea that Jim disrespected his fellow actors is refutable by almost any interview with them after his death.

Do you just believe what people say? I mean who would speak ill of the dead and expect to get next roles in the show biz? They all are actors and actresses so they want next roles. They won’t speak ill of the dead even if they didn’t like how he behaved on the set, that’s just a no brainer.

He was in every way, one hell of a man! RIP, James.

He burned the candle at both ends. Least he enjoyed himself. Those meals he ate makes me hungry.

Just started watching this show. Currently completed season two and this man's acting was great

Husband and I just started watching it in June and are on the last season. I’m very glad we began watching in our 40s. We can enjoy, relate and understand it a lot more than in our 20s. Almost everyone’s acting is amazing but his is phenomenal. Its such an immersive series and a timeless gem.

Really shocked me when he died such a stunning actor

Being in character and going deep into Tony Soprano was something that took his toll on him, I’m sure by the end, he was exhausted both mentally and physically.

Jimmy's was great an actor as exists, with the Sopranos being the best series I've ever seen too. As an American of Sicilian descent myself who's about the same age, height, bone structure as Mr. Gandolfini I too love our delicious(but usually) unhealthy cuisine/over indulgences in general. I'm thankful that as an athlete growing up learned about nutrition, exercise etc, because like so many guys of our ethnicity I put on bad weight by (practically) thinking about Lasagna. Remaining a gymrat with only the occasional cheat meal is I'm sure the only reason I'm not diabetic &or much worse at this stage in my life. God Bless Jimmy, RIP.

Ten years gone already. unbelievable loss.

Not really because coke can definitely be detrimental to heart health so they mentioned things he did which were unhealthy. Most of us have done things in our younger years we now frown upon. I know I did. I never had the money to do cocaine though. I wonder what his childhood was like because that is the place where addictions are born. The so important relationship with our parents.

Maybe the story can save people from the same fate. It could be a wake up call. No need to paint a person as a saint after they die.

He was the Best.

Could his size/conditioning be the reason every fight that Tony was in only lasted long enough for him to throw one punch and not even have to block a return encounter?

It was the Gabagool that got him. Most people don’t realize it but the show ended with Tony having a heart attack

That sounds like one hell of a last meal.

I remember the scene where Chris had a intervention and he told Tony the way that you eat your gonna kill yourself 😮

He eluded. Everything" he had been through.".

Totally preventable. A "heart attack" did not kill him. Years of Gluttony and substance abuse did. If you eat / smoke / drink like this, clean up your life. Exercise. Sleep. There is no excuse.

JAMES & THE SOPRANOS EPISODES MADE HBO ALOT OF COIN!!!!!!!!!!! ( A- HOLES!)

Him a crime boss, that calzone???!!!

He started out ok and became a good actor towards the middle, but towards the end he gained way too much weight. He had metabolic syndrome. He couldn’t even breath normally on the set, I recall his heavy breathing. A doctor needed to put him on a diet. In reality a mob boss isn’t obese and very disciplined. Otherwise they can’t climb to the top. He wasn’t portraying a great mob boss towards the end as that’s far from the reality. Too bad he couldn’t lose weight to live longer…sadly. He could have been a great actor for years to come.

People like you who want to hide these issues are the real cause of death for addicts. Ignoring it is enabling it. You helped kill him. Good job.

I think there was a lot of Bad Karma in doing the Sopranos. Gandofini did a great job in the Role, but it glorified a Mafia Killer and the Mafia as well as the Ends justifies the Means approach to life. I think this resulted in Bad Karma for James Gandofini his Drug, Alcohol and Food Problems which led to his early Demise.

If you only look at the surface it may create the illusion of the mob life being glorified but when you delve in you can see the carnage and chaos that is created. I think what was depicted was a dysfunctional family that just happened to be about the mob which just made it more interesting to watch. It's probably my favorite show because of all the psychology that is interwoven into it. Martin Scorsese said that when he was asked about Good fellas making the mob look glorified or alluring. he said that there were alluring aspects to it but everyone either died or went to prison. In the Irishman he did the same thing when he put right on the film what happened to all the mob related characters being knocked off or going to prison. I, like a lot of people, are attracted to these mafia shows and films but just like watching an accident gets your attention and compulsion to watch it, I wouldn't want to be in it.

@@cl5470 - Its been a year since I made my original comment. I had time to think about it. I probably agree with Brian Walsh's comment. I also think the Show sent mixed Messages about the Mafia and its characters. I think Tony and /or his crew would do something horrible like what they did to Adrianna- who was basically a Civilian- just a girl who was dating and fell in love with one of Tony's Men. Yet they killed her. But then they would show scenes of Tony being a good Father like when AJ tried to kill himself.

This is slander
