It may have first hit screens over 20 years ago, but The Sopranos is still remembered as one of the greatest TV shows of all time. And there's a whole story behind the scenes that even the diehard fans may not know. This is the untold truth of The Sopranos.
People assume that The Sopranos could have had any number of different influences. There's the obvious, of course, like the work of acclaimed directors Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, and the not so obvious, like creator David Chase's love for the work of arthouse hero Federico Fellini. But fans and critics alike have long speculated about what exactly came from where on The Sopranos, and the theories are pretty much endless. However, in an interview printed in the series compendium The Sopranos Sessions, Chase cited a single crucial inspiration for The Sopranos: his relationship with his mother.
