My fondest memory of Gandolfini is his supporting role in True Romance. There's something really uniquely arresting about his showdown with Patricia Arquette, and that scene would never be the classic it is without him.
Absolutely dreadful news. He was an extremely talented actor and, from what I have read, a really good guy. This is a huge loss for the film and television world.

I remember James telling a story once. About a guy who pounded on his door late at night. He answered it in his robe. James flung the door open in anger and the guy outside said "Holy shit! Tony Soprano!" And ran off down the street.
Their are few actors who completely incapsulate their role like James did. He was intimidating. I'm sad I will not see his grace in future films.

Agree completely. Long before basically anyone knew who he was, he gave a performance that would actually encapsulate his career, as a tough guy bad ass with a grin on his face and a glee in his eye.
Sad we lost his so soon, but I bet his poor physical condition came into play here.
This is a bummer indeed. Naturally, I concur with his performance in True Romance but running down his filmography, he's definitely shined in a lot of the films he's been in, even if they weren't exactly the greatest e.g. 8MM. Definitely a unique voice who'll most certainly be missed. R.I.P.
