Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) Ko ngā kaihautū o te "Sopranos" he nui ake ā rātou kōrero. Ko te kaihanga o te whakaaturanga a David Chase i haere i roto i te whakaaturanga whakamutunga rongonui mo te DGA Quarterly me te whakaatu i te whakaaro i muri i ia pupuhi. Heoi, ko te mea kaore i whakaaturia e ia, mehemea ka ora, ka mate ranei te kaiwhakaari o te raupapa a Tony Soprano. Heoi anō, ko ngā taipitopito a Chase he akomanga matua mō te āhua o te whakaoho i tētahi āhuatanga kāore i te mōhiotia. Ko te mutunga o 'Sopranos'? Waiho atu. Mo te hunga kāore i te mahara ki te whakamutunga, i rere i te Pipiri 2007, ka hui te kai maori a Tony Soprano ki tōna whānau mō te kai i Holsten's, he wharekai tūturu me te toa huka huka i Bloomfield, New Jersey. Ka tīpakohia e ia tētahi waiata i runga i te pouaka whakaata: ko "Don't Stop Believin' a Journey". I te whakatangi o te puoro, ka tatari ia i roto i te rūma, e titiro ana ki tana wahine, ā, i muri mai, ki tana tama e haere mai ana i te tatau o mua. Kei te roa tana tamahine. He huihuinga kore kino, he huihuinga pea i puta i nga wa katoa o te oranga o Tony, engari he nui te awangawanga, e kii ana a Chase. Ko te waiata Journey "ka timata ki te hanga me te hanga ki tetahi mea"; ka tangi te pere i nga wa katoa ka haere mai tetahi ki te tatau, a ka titiro a Tony i nga wa katoa. Na, ko te tangata i te koti o te mema anake e haere ana i mua o A.J., te tama a Tony. Ka taea e ia te tangata, engari ki te whakaaro ki te oranga o Tony, ka taea e ia te patu tangata i whakaritea hei patu i a Tony. "Kei te tino nui te taumaha i tenei wa, engari ki te whakaaro koe mo taua mea, kaore he take pono", i kii a Chase ki a DGA Quarterly. "Ko wai i roto i te wahi? He tangata i roto i te koti, Cub Scouts, he tokorua taitamariki, he taraiwa i roto i te potae, he tokorua o te mau taata mangu i roto i reira ki te hoko i te tahi mea reka. Kāore he take tūturu hei whakapiki ake i te taumahatanga. Engari e whai hua ana. A koina taku e aroha ai, ko te āhua o tō mahi i tērā". I kite a Chase i ētahi atu pikitia. Ko te huarahi i tapahia ai te whakaaturanga e maumahara ana ki te whakaaturanga moenga whakamutunga o Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey", me Tony e kite ana i a ia ano i te waahi e whai ake nei i te waa. Ko te tangata anake o te mema e haere ana ki te wharepaku he tohu ki te whakaaturanga rongonui i roto i te "The Godfather" i te wa e pupuhi ana a Michael Corleone i a Sollozzo raua ko McCluskey. Ka mutu te whakaaturanga, me te titiro a Tony ki runga hei...
Ko David Chase e haere ana i te mutunga o "The Sopranos" Ko te whakamahinga o ngā pupuhi motuhake me te "Don't Stop Believin' " ka whakapūmau i te taumahatanga. Kāore anō a Chase kia whakaatu i te tūponotanga o Tony Soprano.
