‘The Sopranos’: citatos, iš kurių išeis atpažinti save bei savo gyvenimą

Pirmasis mano 2018 metų pusmetis buvo paskirtas su pertraukomis (dėl suprantamų  užimtumo priežasčių) „Sopranams” – serialui, pasakojančiam apie viena šeimą. Mafijos šeimą. Ir boso Tony Soprano tikrąją šeimą. Kiek ji tikresnė už biznio šeimą patiems mafijos nariams – kartais serialo eigoje kertiniuose vertybių lūžiuose gali suabejoti.

Mane sužavėjo šis serialas tuom, kiek temų vienu ypu jis aprėpia savo scenarijumi. Todėl taip, kad surinkau citatas, atsitiko visai netyčia – man tiesiog užstrigo viena veikėjos frazė, ir aš ją užrašiau. Paskui pradėjau užrašinėti visas… Ir taip išėjo, kad kai sukėliau visas į vieną failą, pamačiau, kad išeina beveik 10 000 žodžių. Sutvarkiau, iškopiravau – 7000. Ir kiek dar dėl neatidumo praleista gali būti!

Tad pamaniau, kad keliomis dalimis būtų nieko su Jumis pasidalinti tomis citatomis, kurias prikaupiau. Jei Jūs nieko prieš..?

Šiame įraše pirmieji sezonai – skaitydami visas dalis, matysite, kaip progresuoja scenarijaus rašymas – man pačiai buvo labai įdomu tai užfiksuoti. Tiesa, kad nebūtų spoileris – citatų iškarpos išmėtytos skirtingomis dalimis.
