Federico was definitely believable as Furio. The first interview I saw with him after watching the show shocked me when I heard him speaking without an accent. I thought he really had that accent.

Everyone assumed they casted him right out of Italy simply to be authentic. And Federico being as talented as he is became Furio in every way. The language and the accent, there's countless actors who could have pulled it off but Federico's body language and that elusive thing you can't put a name on, he so nails it. You can study immigrants as he obviously did growing up where he did but true talent has a way of getting through your perceptions and breaks into your sub-concious mind. I literally did know he wasn't from Italy until years after seeing the show so the scene where he's telling Carmella how when he went back home he felt like a foreigner, i get goosebumps thinking about it. I know about as much about acting as I do astro-physics lol but art is art. When it's perfectly done there's no explanation needed you get in right in your soul. The majority of actors, even great actors, you can tell when they're stressing to put an emotion or feeling across but Federico WAS so Furio in every way that I was floored when learned his true identity so to speak lol

My favorite quality of Furio is that you could tell he was a good hearted good natured guy, but when it was time for him to handle business as an enforcer he was extremely vicious. I think compartmentalizing is very common for a person in that position. This guy was very authentic. I was blown away to here him speak without the accent. I really thought he was a zip.

I met Federico and Joe Gannascoli at a club on Route 4 once. Great guys. Very humble, polite, and smart. And masters at their craft. I was also at one of the shoots for the first season in Wayne NJ where I met some of the cast. And even one time, I had to stay at a shitty hotel, (one of the ones that your door went outside) I went to leave and they were shooting a scene at 5 am in the lot and they asked me to wait half an hour to finish. Of course, I obliged. Iconic show. Please keep up the great work, Mr. Franzese.

Federico, you are correct. James Gandolfini was an outstanding actor! Every part he plays, however small or grand, captivates. He steals every scene he's in because of his presence. He was the essence of the theatre saying, "There are no small parts only small actors." He was so large in presence, he made every part huge. The Last Castle, True Romance, etc.

I love that guy! Great sitdown Michael! I could have listened to him for a few more hours. Loved the story of him adlibbing that last line in his audition. And then they ended up keeping it. He's very talented actor....artist and all. Thanks for the sitdown!

One of the things I like most about how Michael interviews is he lets his subject talk and interjects only when appropriate. Too many times on these the interviewer tells long stories and/or cuts off the subject. Michael is so respectful and just lets the guys he's talking to answer.

The irony is he's head is similar to my Australian born Greek Grandmothers parents. Both of them. The eastern Sicilians, southern italians, greek islands, maltese, turk, egyptians, syrian, lebanese etc - all have this people group there. Any they all like the same cloth pattern designs.
