David Chase’s first and (so far) only feature directorial credit was this 2012 music-infused drama, loosely based on his own coming of age as a rock-crazy kid in New Jersey in the 1960s. Chase’s avatar, Douglas (played by a young and electrifying John Magaro) dreams of rock superstardom, over the strenuous objections of his conservative father—played by James Gandolfini, modest and muted, a marked departure from his work as the gregarious focal point of Chase’s The Sopranos. (Gandolfini said that the character reminded him of his own father, a bricklayer and custodian whose working-class ethos caused his son no small hesitation to follow his dream of acting.)

Director's Cut! Two lovers are thrust into a dangerous game of high-stakes negotiations and high-speed adventure after unexpectedly coming into possession of a suitcase full of mob contraband. Fleeing to Los Angeles, they hope to sell the goods and begin a new life together. But both sides of the law have other ideas...

James Gandolfini made his first big splash as a sociopathic mob enforcer in Tony Scott’s explosive lovers-on-the-run picture, thanks to Scott’s stylized direction, Quentin Tarantino’s quotable screenplay, and an unforgettable motel room encounter with Patricia Arquette.

James Gandolfini displays his impressive but unappreciated flair for comedy in this 2009 political satire from director Armando Iannucci. Spinning off of his British television smash The Thick of It, and including several of that show’s funniest characters (particularly the Prime Minister’s Director of Communications Malcolm Tucker, played with foul-mouthed zeal by Peter Capaldi), Iannucci skewers relations between the U.S. and the U.K. in the run-up to the Iraq War. The film would serve as the bridge between The Thick of It and Iannucci’s U.S. hit Veep, featuring several of the latter show’s stars as well (including Anna Chlumsky, Mimi Kennedy, David Rasche and Zach Woods). The Academy Award-nominated screenplay was penned by Iannucci, Jesse Armstrong (who would go on to create Succession), Simon Blackwell (Peep Show) and Tony Roche.
