Fallen
A eerie thriller about a fallen angel that passes though people, taking over their physical body for as long as it deems necessary. This angel enjoys causing mayhem and especially has it in for policeman John Hobbes (Denzel Washington). Lou (Gandolfini) is a cop who doesn't seem to like Hobbes. Maybe it's because Hobbes is acting so strangely, or maybe he's just grumpy because of his cheap suits and sporty walrus-like mustache. |

Crimson Tide
Mutiny on a submarine. I'm not really one for war-related story lines, but the things I liked most about this movie were director Tony Scott's colorful lighting effects and tilted camera angles. Not enough to make you seasick, but it made you think about the instability of the ocean. Lt. Bobby Dougherty (Gandolfini) is the guy in charge of supplies and the instigator of a militia-style takeover of the sub at the captain's request. director Tony Scott |

Angie
"A nice guy, with a good heart", Vinnie Dopodomani (Gandolfini) is a plumber who has been Angie's (Geena Davis) boyfriend since the ninth grade. However, now that Angie is knocked up, she isn't certain of much in her life, except that she doesn't want to marry Vinnie. Watching Jerry (Michael Rispoli) and Tina (Aida Turturro) their not-so-happily-married friends, doesn't help her much either. Then Angie gives birth to a baby boy, with a deformed arm, so she takes off in search of the wonderful life she thinks her long-gone mother is living. |

Money for Nothing
Billy Coyle (Gandolfini) is a South Philly dock worker, who is diagnosed by his struggling younger brother, Joey (John Cusack), with a case of "acute fairness" because he refuses to show nepotism and give him work on the docks. Joey's dismal life suddenly changes when he finds the $1.2 million that fell off an armored car, and decides to keep it. Arguments about right vs. wrong erupt when the increasing paranoid Joey is finally discovered by his family to be in possession of the missing moola. Even self-righteous Billy is slightly affected by the lure of money. Billy tries to help Joey by conking gangster Dino Palladino (Benicio Del Toro) with a baseball bat, so that Joey can try to escape. |
