First it was Michael Clarke Duncan and now it's James Gandolfini, Hollywood it seems is losing a couple of stars that shines ever more brightly than most actors, entertainers and celebrities who makes it more often to the tabloids instead of Forbes magazine or the Oscars. Gandolfini died of a heart attack at the age of 51 and it's very sad because this guy has a lot of talent to offer in the show business, even his doctor said that he was way too young to pass away.
Many New Jerseans mourn his passing because he is known to them as a true New Jersey guy, which is akin to "the guy next door" type of person and not at all like the characters he played in the movies such as "The Sopranos," "Get Shorty" and "Where The Wild Things Are." All three films were critically acclaimed and for which he's won a couple of awards for his exemplary performances. I sincerely hope that young people will look up to him and attempt to imitate his talents and his personality in general for the great actor that he was. Rest in peace James.
