The soprano family and nostalgia for the mafia genre in cinema and television 

posted in: All News | 0

In the pilot episode of the Sopranos series (Soprano Family), available in the HBO Max catalog, a situation is established in which the protagonist, Tony Soprano, consults a psychiatrist after having passed out. During the consultation, the doctor asks the necessary questions of a personal nature (albeit reluctantly due to his client’s connection to organized crime) to find the root of so much anxiety that plagues Tony.

At one point, he lets out a sense of nostalgia for the simpler times, where there was a sense of respect between members of the Mafia and society itself in general seemed more stable. If, for the series, it presents an important element on a character that the spectator does not yet know, apart from that its representation goes directly through a characteristic of Mafia films.
