The Sopranos - At Jackie Aprile 's funeral 

The " I told you so" shot of Meadow is definitely one of the best of this entire series.

This is the healthiest Tony ever looked in the Sopranos. And I mean ever

That wink at the end kills me. Such a loving dad moment. Makes me think my old man.

Brilliant cinematography, very subtle. Especially when Meadow looks at AJ with the "see, I told you so look" to AJ. AJ knows at that point that his father really does have another family.

James Gandolfini so thin and young and charismatic when he winks at his son. It breaks my heart to see this. I miss this actor so much.

James Gandolfini looked very handsome and healthy on this scene....RIP.

Music in this show is fucking perfect.

The Sopranos is sooooo amazingly good. That wink by James Gandolfini almost makes me cry every time. I'm sad that he's no longer with us, sad that we didn't get to see all the future great work he would have done as an actor and more...we lost a true legend on June 19, 2013...RIP Boss.

It's not every day you find out your father is a mobster.

I kinda feel sorry for AJ. It seems part of his childhood innocence ended in this scene.

The look on Meadows face that she gave to AJ is priceless. Great acting on Jamie's part.

CHILLS every time the Mazzy Star song comes in, brilliant scene.

1:19 Damn it Sil, its a coffin not a craps table!!

Italian funerals are exhausting. you gotta go to the house and pay respects. The wake. Then the funeral, followed by the trip to the cemetery. By the end, you're wishing you were in the ground.

This was the very first scene I ever saw of The Sopranos and it remains one of my favorite scenes. A look from Meadow to AJ and then to Tony. No dialogue and it spells out so much of what this world is about. “Look On Down From The Bridge” seals it. AJ’s eyes are wide opened and now so is the audience’s. A perfect scene.

That wink at the end.....all type of feels...

Amazing how AJ managed to maintain the same exact facial expression throughout 6 seasons

As I reflect on the show, this really is a sad moment. Every son comes to the realization that his dad is not superman. This episode was AJ's moment. In fact, this scene is AJ's realization that his dad is really a stranger. The space between them at the funeral is real. A nod and a wink is no longer unspoken communication that can cover that gap. Also, maybe about the loss of innocence.

I got chills when Tony looked at AJ and winked I cried when Gandolfini smiled. R.I.P. Big Guy.

Gandolfini’s “everything is going to be okay, AJ” nod, wink and smile convey more feeling, and is better acting, than 90% of the top paid actors in Hollywood can do today.

The wink and smile, very heartbreaking. The deep love from a father to son. But now the son views the wink and smile a little differently, and never again the same way….

I DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS. THAT SCENE..THAT MUSIC..THAT SLOW MOTION ..THAT WINK... THAT SMILE... TAKES ME BACK TO THOSE YEARS 2000'S WHEN I WAS 19 AND MY DAD WAS ALIVE. I MISS MY DAD GUYS.

The end of this scene with the wink makes me sad. Life is short man, one time we wink at each other the next time they are throwing dirt on top of us. Be nice to your loved ones.

2:06 beautiful man and actor RIP

Ending gave me chills. Tony completely embodies the nature of a good father there at the end.

Going back and watching this scene must be heartbreaking for Robert Iler (A.J.) He spent his childhood on this show with a great guy who's now gone. Wonder how he felt during the filming of this scene and how he feels now.

I always loved this ending scene. It’s perfect when mazzy star kicks on and James gives the little “wink” to Aj. I always felt like this scene was so real and it actually makes me a bit emotional to think about it. That’s 100% something my old man would have done back in the day

My favorite ending scene of the entire series

2:02 damn I Wana cry. James gandolfini made that wink perfect my dad did that silent "hey" and wink to me a few times..... May ur soul rest in peace James Gandolfini. U might of passed in 2013. It's 2019 now. Ur name and the man u were will always be remembered and loved.

That wink and the song at the end. Couldn't be any more fucking perfect. Legit tears come out every time

This moment in the first season was when I knew I was all in with this series.

That song at the end with Tony’s wink made me tear up immediately. What a legendary actor. So glad I discovered this show because I’ll be watching it forever.

James Gandolfini's wink. Beautiful xxxxxx

I'm not sure I agree that AJ losses his innocence here but rather Tony does in the eyes of AJ. The pedestal AJ has put his Dad on has become a pile of lies and crime. Look on down from the bridge was the perfect song for this point of realisation. Also, James' smile was one of the warmest. It's impossible not to smile back RIP

"I'm his favorite nephew" tony is his only nephew lol

Holy shit. That shot of meadow. The more you watch the series the more you realise how much she is a cold gangster

Scenes like this is why The Sopranos is one of the greatest shows ever

Damn it this show was so good!! You watch a 2 min video and you remember how much you terribly miss the characters.

Fuck... was about to melt into some Mazzy Star and it cut off. Damn fine tune.

I love the whole series but that first season has a magic to it that's not there for the rest of the show as much. I actually think you could stop at the end of season 1 and the whole thing is a masterpiece.

Meadow.. LOL... "told ya so!"

I like how Tony says he is Junior's favorite nephew as if he isn't the only nephew Junior has. 😂

Such a memorable scene. Beautifully shot and played.

I think in the end everybody think at special moments with their dad .. it’s a very Special Scene in this show and it gets me everytime. It’s a moment in you childhood that u never forget and you want to freeze this moment

2:06 great part The True Boss of the Family, Criminal, Wealthy, Vengeful, Cunning & yet still a Father. I love how it’s acknowledged that Tony has another “ Family” and the wink is indicative of something innocent and also something sinister at the same time.

Its almost like James saw through my screen and winked right at me.

One of my favourite scenes in movie history the way he looks at his son is special

This is when Meadow was trying to convince AJ that their dad was in the mafia. Then AJ does some research on the mob and low and behold his family resembles it to a T. Thus Meadows "I told you so" sheepish look.

Tony seems much different here than in the later seasons, and it's not just his weight. He's relaxed, confident. He knows who he is and he knows precisely what he needs to do. In later seasons he's much more confused, unsure of himself, less confident.

You guys don’t have the idea how much this nostalgia brings. Especially if you’re from New Jersey.

No offense to daughters, but that wink at the end- that’s such a father-son moment. When dad is busy but catches you eye, and a subtle wink that’s equivalent to a big hug from your father. Such a special moment for sons

I wish you would come back and make great shows like this, Mr. Gandolfini.

This is actually an amazing scene. A.J will never look at his dad the same. Rip James G.

The wink captures the essence of James Gandolfini. We are supposed to hate Tony Soprano but James has such an endearing charm and charisma that it’s impossible to hate him for too long. He was one of a kind. The more I watch The Sopranos the more I see that there will never be anyone like James as Tony ever again. RIP

Für mich ist es die mit abstand beste Serie. Ich bin vor 3 Jahren durch zufall drauf gestoßen und konnte echt nicht aufhören zuschauen, hatte alles staffeln in 3 tagen durch. Nur das Ende war für mich zuschnell da, hätte mich gefreut wenn es noch 1 oder 2 staffeln weiter gegangen wäre. Für mich : 1.The Sopranos 2. Breaking Bad 3. Walking dead / Prison Break

Oh.... That wink and that smile. Thank you James xxxxx

The wink at the end by James Gandolfini, with the music, was too powerful

That wink to A J was Everything. Tony LOVED his family.

This final scene is one of my favorites of Sopranos Stuck in my head since the day i watched! BRILLIANT!

Man, i love this show. Every scenes is perfect. James Gandolfini was a wonderful actor.

This scene and the one where Christopher is high at the carnival stuck with me the most. Only this show cinematography and music could perfectly represent real life vivid emotions of grief, deep rooted fears, uncertainty, jealousy, superstition, addiction and in this scene a character maturing in front of the audience. Whatever emotion they're trying to convey it is never forced or heavy handed. AJ lost a part of his innocence and is worried of who his father really is...

Shame the clip wasn't a little longer, the music at the end is fantastic. It's pure genius, this scene always makes me feel so many emotions

That man could move mountains with his eyes and facial expressions. What a legend. RIP James

Each scene of the Soprano series is well-crafted and full of emotional depth. Even silences speak volumes! RIP Tony!

End makes me miss my dad every time.

kinda reminds me of the funeral scene from The Godfather....."i always thought it would have been Clemenza"

This slow motion at 2:05 and this sudden appearance at 1:44 with the perfect music starting playing. Perfect emotion expressing & cinematography!

Loved this moment. The Music, Tony's fatherly wink at AJ. Perfection.

What an expertly crafted scene. Moving (smile to son, his son appreciating his Dad belongs to an unmistakable group of dark hair colleagues, Tony having a quick but deep look at that coffin), telling, the men behind the boss (whether they agree with Junior's style or not). Photography, music. They put together a talented film making crew.

20 years ago. Where does the time go.....

When the song kicks in it gave me chills , rest easy jimmy..

This show was so god damn good. It still holds up years later. It has tremendous re-watchability, there are so many moving parts and events that go down you’ll still be surprised every now and then. It’s similar to why (IMO) The Wire is my favorite show ever made. It’s a thick, novel that transports you out of reality and makes you excited _and_ sad sometimes at the same time.

That cemetery is at 495 Newark ave. Jersey City,NJ Harsimus Cemetery opened in 1829

One of the best scenes of the series .... lost a legend!!

This show was absolutely amazing. The way this scene ended was just beautiful, especially if you've seen it before and understand the context of the look Meadow gave to Anthony Jr.

favorite scene in the show. music ties everything together.

The moment AJ lost his innocence and came to realize the truth about his dad and family.. It went by silently, unknown by everyone around him. Everything would be different. Some of life's most pivotal moments happen without making a sound.

Damn I miss Gandolfini so much. RIP Boss❤️🙏🏼

That last moment had to be one of the most beautiful things I seen in tv.

I crack up at Meadow's stupid smirk at the end. lol Then that connection with Tony and AJ, what their dynamic was about was fatherly approval. Tony wanted his Dad's approval but all he got was his mother's resentment. Then AJ, towards the end of the series, tried taking out Uncle Junior thinking it was the right thing for his Dad.

RIP Mr. Gandolfini. God what an amazing actor.

This scene hits differently after knowing that James Gandolfini had passed away. Rest in peace, legend.

That wink to AJ at the end of the scene is how I'll remember James Gandolfini. A tremendous actor and a great guy who was loved and respected by all that worked with him and knew him.

This scene is magnificent, the look, the lighting...it's special.

damn..duno why seeing tony at the last scene is so sad...rip james gandolfini

Man, that wink and smile at the end makes me think of my father. Fkn miss him.

Man ,I remember the first time I watched this series.It was 2 months before Mr .Gandolfini passed away.What an impact it had on me and I was like how come I didnt come across this show earlier. I feel this is the greatest show ever to embrace the screen ,the show which inspired Mad Men,breaking bad ,game of thrones and a lot others and was the sole reason for the golden age of Television ,which we are witnessing today. Such a shame Mr.Gandolfini passed away at such a young age. God bless the whole Sopranos Cast.

Love that smile and that wink that James gives to AJ at the end of that clip!

AJ and Morty burying his childhood with the same song...I love it

The song is :- Look on down from the bridge - Mazzy Star 😁

I like Tonys nod and wink to his son. Its kinda what my dad has done to me when I looked at him in awe.

I remember times like these. Being a kid and studying my dad & family. God bless em

the first of many funerals

1:46- Meadow's face is priceless.

If I were Robert Iler I would cry every time I watched the end of this scene. It made me tear up when I watched this clip after not having see the show in a long time

The wink ... for me is a masterpiece !!! Really a great great actor Jim !!!

the song makes this scene more great

Hot Damn, Amazing scene...... I was just like many other idiots who dissed the greatest show on television. But I was in my late 20s, so sometimes The Sopranos seemed slow to me, if bullets were not flying, I then found myself getting bored with it. My father on the other hand loved it, the storyline to the actors themself. Now im 54, around the same age my dad was when Sopranos aired live on Sunday nights on HBO. And after this bullshit mask wearing, lockdown BULLSHIT, I binged watched the whole series three weeks ago and I love the Sopranos more now than I ever did before. I love how David Chass and the rest of the cast & crew made these wise guys & family so relatable to any working class who slave our asses off so our kids can eat, or have the little extra incase our sons want to play high school football or daughters want to cheer. That also means cash on hand, So set aside all the mob life, the struggling is still relatively the same for a man who punches a timecard everyday. Even tho it looks like money just walked in by itself by the bag loads.. Silveo, Christopher, Pauly, Hess, Bobby B, even Tony still had to grind it out on the daily. But Tony still made time to go man the BBQ for family parties and try and be the best father he can be while being a gangster. And that is the saddest part, we feel Tony had a harder time dealing with his sins then the rest of the crew. I think that's why we love Tony Soprano even tho he is a cold blooded murder. And that is why I can't wait for "The Many Saints of Newark" I am hoping David Chase gives a deeper insight on how & why Tony from teenager to young man chose to follow in his dad's shoes.

Sums up the Sopranos perfectly : the mixture of the 2 families, the humour behind and the fact you can't dislike "the family". And that things are not always/often what they seem.

One off my fav scenes in entire tv history
