I finally saw The Last Castle (2001) last night w/ Gandolfini and Robert Redford. Redford was great, but I had a hard time getting over Gandolfini's accent. After 8 years of The Sopranos it's tough to hear him talking any other way. Ironically I said the opposite here when I said that he sounded too much like Tony Soprano.
As fine an actor as he is, typecasting is going to be a MAJOR problem for him. I can't get used to him in any other role.
