For starters, I must introduce William Lynch to you, whom everyone lovingly calls Billy!

Right below is his unchanging image that my mind tends to download!

William is a one-man-army, who handles much simultaneously, like managing property as the director of Nicotra Group, Bloomfield.

Besides being engrossed in those tedious, formalities-ridden, legal documentation procedures; the man has another, incredibly interesting job in his hands.

I cannot help but envy him, as the lucky William drives famed personalities to grand ceremonies and one of those celebrities is the oh-so-lovable The Sopranos actress, Lorraine Bracco.

The 2009 Women of Achievement luncheon at the Hilton brought him the opportunity to drive Lorraine from her apartment in Chelsea to the venue, in light of her scheduled presence as the keynote speaker.

As soon as the Lorraine-seated, white Mercedes Benz of his, hit the highway, he got exposed to snippets from Ms. Bracco’s past, while she talked about her hardships-laden personal life with an Advance Staffer.

Here’s what construed afterwards, in the words of William, mouthed during a recent interview.

While citing her heart-breaking divorce from her ex-husband, Lorraine emphasized that her life hasn’t been a bed of roses. She explained that how an emotionally-tiring custody battle, ultimately won her the full-custody of her daughter, Stella.

Lorraine added that times were so tough that she had to rely on medication to restore her mental balance.

Thereafter, the conversation changed its track, when the actress expressed admiration for the dirt-free, orderly condition of the Staten Island.

(To add to your knowledge, let me reveal that the actress had been to Stated Island, a few years back, to launch her latest wine at a posh restaurant.)

William takes the overheard conversation as a proof that just like us, the stars too have a fair share of problems.

William is a lucky man, for he gets the first hand experience of celeb life, while we depends on published reports, to peek into the world of glitz and glamour.

Though I have to end here, you can sustain the moments of fun, by opting to watch The Sopranos online, and meet Dr. Jennifer Melfi (Lorraine), the highly-inquisitive psychiatrist, whose perspective towards life is simply unique!

Not everything you see is to be believed.

Gone are the days, when each and every word of the broadsheets was regarded as if coming from the gospel.

So, before you start rising high on the waves of your conjectures, let me clarify that the post is certainly not dedicated to the personal life of James Gandolfini.

What I was actually referring to, was James Gandolfini’s alias Tony Soprano’s latest film, ‘Welcome to the Rileys’.

James plays the part of Doug, a distraught husband, whose relationship with his wife, Lois, is becoming more strained, with every passing day, in the wake of the sudden demise of their teenage daughter.

If you have ever gone for The Sopranos download, you’ll appreciate how much efforts James has put into his act, for it’s simply resplendent.

When it seems that family trouble is going to take a toll on this household, it is at this juncture that the motion picture marks the entry of a teenage prostitute (Kristen Stewart) who inadvertently seems to be the ray of hope that can tie all the loose threads.

While you need to watch out for this story that has initially received tepid responses, I must tell you that this is a movie that you need to catch. The mantra for a modern day audience is, not to get influenced by the lukewarm response - rather implement his sixth sense that is based on sole instincts.

With family trouble, I’m reminded how the family life of this mobster, Tony Soprano, was also fraught with turbulence of sorts.

His growing fondness for his female psychiatrist and increasing distance from his wife, coupled with numerous challenges on the professional arena, which lead him to struggle with way too many things, at the same time.

The moral of the story is that family trouble works wonders for this actor in inexplicable ways.

So keep on doing the great job, buddy!

As a mobster he has left an everlasting impression on all of us!

No wonder that, then there’s this inherent desire to tune in to The Sopranos episodes and catch up with the lives of those associated with the man, Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), at the helm of the Mafiosi kingdom.

Well, if you have always bore the thought that he can only master the antics that are bracketed under the category, ‘nefarious’, hang on!

If everything works out well, James Gandolfini would be seen subordinating two magicians in a comedy film.

Oh, well, excuse me in case I’ve forgotten to share with you all the buzz attached with the upcoming comedy film, ‘Burt Wonderstone’.

The movie is already creating waves since it has the mesmerizing duo of Jim Carrey and Steve Carell as its main cast.

Carell’s character is in quest of his counterpart in order to survive the challenge thrown in by another wily magician, viz. Carrey’s character.

Things are at the verge of getting figured out and Mr. Gandolfini’s would be playing the part of Doug Munny, the casino owner, to whom the protagonist and his partner pay an obeisance.

Would Gandolfini’s conspicuous presence be able to cause redemption of one and all? That would depend on time; until then, I guess we can only speculate!

But one thing is sure – the transition from being a mobster boss to a magician boss would be worth watching!

He was a mobster involved in nefarious activities of sorts!

But beyond that stern look and frosty behavior, there was an individual whose heart was filled with profound feelings for his family!

Even today, whenever I have time apart from the slosh of files and other related stuff, I do sneak into my illustrious collection and browse through segments that come from The Sopranos download to enliven my spirits!

Trust me guys, every installment is a must watch, if you are looking for some meaningful content, something you can ruminate upon long afterwards!

There was this instance that occurred in the third season when Tony suffered an anxiety attack! Would you believe that he underwent the trauma all because his daughter, Meadow, chose an odd man as her boyfriend?

Yes! Awkward as it may seem, Meadow’s new boyfriend, Noah Tannenbaum, turned out to be a Jewish African-American!

Guess the father was startled to the hilt by the choice of his daughter!

On one hand, FBI had started scrutinizing his actions as well as keeping an eye on his house, while on the other hand, homely affairs like these, probably acted as fire in the smoke-filled environs!

Yet, when topic of conversation hovers around Tony Sopranos, one cannot help but appreciate the balance he struck with his professional and personal life!

Wish we could learn some such balancing tips from you Tony. I really do.

It wasn’t a volley of brickbats that garnered my attention to speak on Falco’s behalf!

Yet, I kept wondering what it was that the event managers had in their minds when they stumbled upon this wacky idea!

Those words are definitely not being spelled out in a fit of rage; there is a sense of bemusement.

Guys, I’m talking about the Emmys 2011, in which actress Edie Falco had also received a nomination.

Ok, it wasn’t for the soap opera that gave us a sneak-peek into the life of a mobster (The Sopranos), but shouldn’t we be happy that at least our favorite actress received a nomination. It was for her performance in the show ‘Nurse Jackie’.

When the name of the winner in the category of ‘Best Actress in a Comedy’ was to be announced, all the nominees were called upon the stage. Edie Falco came along with Tina Fey, Martha Plimpton, Melissa McCarthy, Amy Poehler and Laura Linney.

When the winner’s crown had to go to Melissa McCarthy, I was wondering why that pageant was held on stage!

I don’t have anything against Melissa, but then wasn’t it a sort of embarrassment for the likes of Edie and others?

That reminds me that in case we are missing the show really badly, we can go for The Sopranos download and track the life of a mobster, Tony Soprano, who strives to lead a harmonious life.

Beside the protagonist, one would also watch out for the ancillary characters, like Tony’s wife, Carmela, played by Edie Falco.

The actress is happy that at least the shows she vouched for didn’t quite make it in the list, such as ‘The first 48’ and ‘Househunters’.

There was certainly no official exclamation of resentment from the quarters of Ms. Falco, but then, we do hope she had a moment to feel happy about instead of flaunting that plastic, oops, perfect smile!

Getting yourself acquainted with the usual tittle-tattle is something everyone is fond of, for it is the wont that comes so very naturally!

But Edie Falco, it seems, does not believe in thriving on such frivolities. Rather, she settles her faith in taking solid steps towards initiatives that are concrete and have substantial meaning attached to them.

Now, that is something evident even in her on-screen portrayal of Carmela Soprano’s part, because if you tune in to The Sopranos episodes, you can’t help but sympathize with the lady.

Carmela Soprano (Edie Falco) is one character, who would undoubtedly emerge as the feminist’s sweetheart.

Jokes apart, because the intention was to bring forth the frailties, which the woman encounters, as she struggles to keep the institution of marriage intact with her hubby Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) the Mafiosi and a man caught up in affairs with several femme fatale.

Now, Edie has agreed to endeavor something that’s kind of her due, and that effort is aimed to mark the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 incident.

9/11 was that black day in the history of mankind, when not just 3000 people and 16 hijackers lost their lives, but the entire world felt tremors so palpable, that the world feels it to date.

A slew of actors have joined hands, to voice the stories of men and women who went through the tough time, so that they reach out to hundreds and thousands and they too get to understand the frailties of time.
Our beloved Edie Falco is one such name and there’s this immense feeling of pride dawning upon me, as I come to know of her name, being included in the cast that would be at the helm of affairs of this particular story recital.

So, while Carmela Soprano might have confined herself within a certain cocoon, only to save her family from falling apart, the real-life Edie Falco believes in going out of her way for a cause that has a genuine reason and substance adhering to it!

The very world of the Mafiosi has been an intriguing one for everyone, especially those who wanted to peep into their lives. The antics that make this a haven for all that is shoddy and murky, yet with the green notes pouring in, form a vicious cycle that keeps running incessantly.

Watch The Sopranos online and venture into the life of mobster Tony Soprano, who is caught up in a maze, consisting of his family life and relationships, as well as his professional bearings that can be really demanding at times, since he is at the helm of affairs of an entire mafia group.

Each character was portrayed with so much intensity, that the viewers were simply hooked to the show. It was bid farewell in 2007 with a heavy heart, now leaving us with the download path to harp on to, in the wake of that pang of nostalgia hitting us, rather hard at times.

Tony Soprano was often at loggerheads with his wife Carmela, who is a homemaker and seemed to have had enough of it, often leading to clashes between the couple.

Edie Falco, the actor who portrayed the part of Carmela Soprano, is garnering adulation for her sterling act, as she finds herself nominated in the Emmy Awards 2011, in the category of outstanding lead actress in a comedy series.

Now that certainly calls for loads of adulation, since it reaffirms our belief that she can carry on her shoulders, the serious as well as a role filled with jocundity.

The show ‘Nurse Jackie’ has been the one to add another feather to this actor’s cap.
Well done, Edie!

Thus, with the advent of the Emmy Awards 2011 at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles on September 18th, Edie would be escalating further in her career, which has been illustrious enough with several stellar roles.

I mean, how can we forget our poor Carmela, who could not identify much with her hubby and his way of going about things?

An Emmy nomination could pave way for the revival of the mafia tale once again, what say?
At least worth giving a thought once, right?
Let’s see!
