The Sopranos may be over, but the blog is back
First, I want to apologize for the brief absence from updating the blog. We were in the process of improving many things on imaginginfo. But we’re back baby!
No need to fret over no more Sopranos! Now, you have the Eye Openers blog at least once a week and we promise no ambiguous endings like last night’s Sopranos finale. Okay, did Tony die or what? I’ll tell you one thing. Anyone who loves photography would have noticed some of the gorgeous shots in last night’s episode, that would have lent themselves to beautiful stills. Like the shot at the meal after Tony’s brother-in-law’s funeral. Carmella sitting elegantly ladylike with a wall-size painting behind here. Tony standing up next to her. The lighting was low, shadows were sublime and I wish they would sell that shot as a photograph. And, the last scene, an amalgamation of goings on in a diner-like depot as Tony waits for his family to arrive for dinner. Each one arrively separately, exchanging pleasantries, warm gestures and popping onion rings into their mouths, and then cutting to other patrons: some kissing, others chatting, others looking suspicious. It reminded me of what Richard Russo’s diner from his Pulitzer Prize-winning book might have looked like in stills.
Some things are just better as photographs.
