He had Brendan killed and wanted to kill Chris too, but Livia said no.

Tried to talk tony into killing Chrissy several times too

Alright, I just rewatched the series and forgot already

Way too many gems to catch in one watch. I catch new ones every time I even watch a YouTube clip lmao

Never caught this

Tony speaks with Meadow, who's siting on the living room couch after screening the 1931 gangster picture The Public Enemy, the film that made James Cagney a star.

The film proves important not because of its hallowed spot in early film history, but because its emotional backbone is the loving relationship between the hero and his adoring mother (Bery)Mercer)- a bond Tony can only fantasize about. The episode cuts to The Public Enemy four times, and builds its final scene around Tony watching the horrifying finale where Ma. Powers preps her son's bedroom for his return from the hospital, not knowing that he's been kidnapped and killed and that it's his corpse that's being brought home. What brings Tony to tears isn't the tragedy of Tom's death, but the simple image of a mother expressing joy that her son is coming back. It's never clear whether Tony is obsessively rewatching the entire film while dealing with his mother's death, or if it just takes him forever to get through it. Either way, it gains a talismanic power as this hour unreels, until by the end it transcends its plot function, illustrating a truth about how movies can explain us to ourselves even when we weren't looking for insight.

the most memorable part of the movie to me is when baby chris is scared s***less of tony and tony is like "AYYYE WHATS DA MATTA? COOCHIE COO!"

" he's slow with words that one"

Many patients want to be excused for their current predicament because of events that occurred in their childhood. That’s what psychiatry has become in America.

Visiting America in 1946, French anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss commented on the endearingly infantile traits of American culture. He especially noted adults’ childish adulation of baseball, their passionate approach to toy-like cars and the amount of time they invested in hobbies.

name me a bigger badass in pop culture i'll wait?

None of this 2nd guessing the lifestyle like Carmella. Born to be a mobster’s wife.

a lot of them act like theyre from the show its hard to read

Just finished the first season for the first time this show goat so far, i love christopher

They really don’t make shows with this level of nuance anymore. It never talks down to you and tells you how to think. We know these people aren’t good role models but they’re complex and we’re allowed to take the good and the bad from them without it being so clear cut as to what those always are. Other than Twin Peaks this is certainly the best piece of television ever.

man I just watched the scene where Chris throws out his script. not a word said in the whole scene and it had me shedding a tear lol

What was your favourite part of the Chrissy intervention scene? It’s Sil’s “disgusting” for me

The guys jumping chris at his own intervention once he starts talking s*** back

Honorable mention goes to Tony flipping out about the dog
