Enough Said

This ended up being James Gandolfini's last film and what a film to conclude a too-shortened career. He stars with Julia Louis-Dreyfus as a couple exploring a relationship.  I never watched Seinfeld nor The Sopranos so was not a huge fan of either actor.  They were both wonderful.  James was like a big teddy bear who can be gruff if pushed to the edge while dealing with an ex-wife and daughter about to go away to college.  Julia was not the comedian that I have come to expect but was lovely in her portrayal of a woman also about to enter the empty nest part of her life.  The supporting cast was wonderful except for the character of James' daughter, who was a b***h then tried to be nice too quickly and too late.

I give this a one and a half thumb up pointing to James in heaven, possibly being nominated for a posthumous Oscar?!!?
