The Sopranos - Carmine Lupertazzi vs Carmine Jr - Like Father, Like Son?

[@coolpapab]

When Carmine Jr. was describing his dream to Tony in the final season, I never had more respect for him until then. He knew he wasn't his father and he didn't want to spend the rest of his life trying to be him. He was his own man. And I believe Tony realized it and respected him more for that.

Considering the Carmines are the biggest high-profile characters who were never killed are never spent prison time I would say they're definitely smart regardless of what everybody says, Master manipulator's is up for debate but they are probably the smartest characters in terms of considering the lives they lead they end up with the best outcomes

[@designexplainedllc346]

It takes a wise man to play a fool, carmine fits this description by Shakespeare well. “This fellow is wise enough to play the fool; And to do that well craves a kind of wit: He must observe their mood on whom he jests, The quality of persons, and the time, And, like the haggard, check at every feather That comes before his eye. This is a practise As full of labour as a wise man's art For folly that he wisely shows is fit; But wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit.” ― William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

[@Yora21]

Carmine Junior was just smart enough to know that being a mafia boss was well outside his own league and that challenging the other contenders would only get himself killed. He knew when it was time to fold and walk away with what he got.

[@JONTHEWHEREHOG]

11:22 that scene was so serious in the show but it had me laugh out loud with how it was so calmly delivered like it meant nothing. I think this is the most important scene is determining whether he was doing it on purpose or not, because this was so well timed and just the perfect phrase to fuck everything up, so good that even though I didn't see him as some master manipulator, it had be thinking whether it was on purpose. I think he was stupid but that he knew very well that these guys were super emotional and played to that. It doesn't take a genius to instigate, and since he was never 100% directly involved in the realm of the violence, he took his chances saying what he did

[@SteveBerryhill]

NAILED IT! The Lupertazzi's played the long game. The only one's to benefit from Phil & Tony being out of the way is Butchie and Lil' Carmine. They made it happen. Just like Lil' Carmine was gong to utilize Rusty, he found that in Butchie. Love how the video is crafted, making your points and then showing the clips to back it up. Small detail...Phil did say he went away for 20 years.

[@oldandbitter]

Holy crap. Dozens of rewatches. I thought I heard every plausible theory.

[@blamecanada8525]

TLDR: AJ lacked guidance, that was his problem, along with small hands "AJ wasn't as smart as Carmine jr", see that's where I disagree with most of what the fan base or even show would tell you, AJ wasn't stupid imo, he lacked guidance and interest in anything and that's why he was ultimately aimless in life, his parents spoiled and neglected him, and once he reached adulthood he was badly looking for a purpose in life. That's why he got so attached to Blanca, he even fully started to adopt her identity as Puerto Rican and acted like he was her son's father, he badly wanted somewhere to belong and dedicate himself to, but had no one to help him when it really should have been Tony's job. That's also why at the end he started to become obsessed with the big problems, foreign policies and conflict, he needed a purpose and instinctively sought out what looked the most important, when he starting actually becoming interested he seemed to have no problem sitting down and reading a book, learning, and understanding things, he quickly became knowledgeable on these subjects, point being, if Tony lived to Carmine's age I feel AJ would have turned out just like Carmine jr did, spoiled and handed things, and smarter than people take him for, like you said the show lowkey laid out that AJ was on the same path as Carmine jr, and we have no idea of what Carmine jr's life growing up was like, but I'd imagine it would be similar to AJ's.

[@Marcus007]

It’s another interesting video Geoffrey! Congrats! I always saw Lil’ Carmine’s story as one of a boss’s child whose life's purpose is to escape the business with the fruits of his ancestors success. They are arguably the most interesting stories of the genre (i.e. G2). In a sense - this is the completion of this version of the American Dream. Like a brutal battle at war, most families do not escape the business successfully so doing so is a victory - or happy ending. Almost all who funnel into the business do not come from money and are driven by greed and ambition. Children of bosses come from the top stock in the game but that’s no guarantee they inherited the right genes, and even if they did, they weren’t forged by that same street background. Instead, they grew up with money and the privilege and opportunities it brings, confused as to their place in the world. This is the source of their tragedy. They turn out in different ways. Some like Lil Carmine clearly have remnants of their father’s cunning, but not enough to take their place with the same competence. He, like Anthony, are hobbled from reaching their full potential by a confused sense that they are failing by not assuming their father’s position in the business, rather than realizing their generation that has a different purpose - to take the wealth derived from crime and transform it into a legitimate business so that their children can take a place in a higher class of society. That confusion is typically at the heart of their tragic stories, both is the arts and real life. Remember what Vito- the super wise elder - wanted for Michael - Senator Corleone, Governor Corleone. But what was his conclusion - "just not enough time to get there." He should have said generations. That scene is one of the most iconic in the trilogy because it brushes up against the essence of what the story is about. G2 is about Michael’s confused struggle leading to his tragic ending - but the Corleone’s story has a happy ending - his son lil’ AV, survived to completely shed the criminal history and become a successful artist. Lil Carmine’s story is the same type as Michael's, Anthony’s and Meadow’s tho with different levels of success. Interesting, it always takes at least one generation to climb to the top of the mountain, and always one to stumble/tumble down, and only the next can escape to the happy ending. Cheers and keep the videos coming!

[@dinglbarry1275]

Junior says a lack of standards by your generation and then in the next line Junior does the exact same thing by ripping on Luperazzi's big fish lips... for whatever reason so many viewers seemed to miss this. The entire episode was making this double standard type of joke over the situation, which is brilliant because it's so typical in everything especially in recent years. Almost everyone is guilty of many of the verbal offenses that people get offended by and once it gets they get publicized and blown up everyone agrees with how offensive they are, but they're guilty of the same thing. It's such hypocrisy.

[@dinglbarry1275]

I'm pretty sure when Carmine junior is playing mediator there's a strategy on his part going on. Particularly when he brings Tony to Phils for a mediation and Phil wants no part of it. I'd be surprised if Carmine junior didn't set that up and expect things to escalate. Aside from Tony getting whacked in the end, there are a lot of storylines that are challenging to interpret. There are perhaps subtleties, but a lot is left to be figured without a ton of clues. And Carmine junior is one of many storylines which are very subtle. And I like the subtleties where we're left to theorize and try to figure these storylines out, but only if they were intended for us to stew over and try to figure out. I hate the idea of trying to figure things out if they were never intended to be figured out. And I can't tell because this show doesn't give many clues on many of the theories I have. For example, just to list one, I believe Tony was trying to whack Hesh. Tony brings over that bottle of alcohol to Hesh and starts to pay Hesh back at a bare minimum. Meanwhile Hesh is having stomach problems and the show makes a point to show Hesh having these stomach problems... Hesh is even holding his stomach as he's getting out of the shitter, when he comes upon his dead girlfriend, so I think she was accidentally killed or to a lessor extent intentionally killed. And perhaps that rabbi dude who we is only introduced to us that one time who Hesh is talking too about being stressed over Tony may have been Tony's guy on the inside... he even sort of seemed partial to Tony when Hesh is talking to him. If that's the case, the show doesn't give us much to work with, but to me there's enough there, because i can't see the show using deus ex machina for Hesh's girlfriend to coincidentally die and solve and close out the Hesh storyline. It makes no sense. Tony paying back hesh in full the day his girlfriend dies is sinister and seems like a message to me. And Hesh looks at him like... are you f**king kidding me.

[@shawnbrodrick8673]

Josh's girlfriend died from a blood embolism, Tony is so morally bankrupt that he thinks giving what is owed is the same as consoling Hesh. The look Hesh gives says it all...plus Hesh is sitting Shiva..or mourning when Jews don't talk.

[@dinglbarry1275]

@@shawnbrodrick8673 - I agree with the morally bankrupt part and what he does to Hesh in that moment where he pays him is horrible, but I also think Tony may have been behind trying to whack Hesh and killed his girlfriend by accident... perhaps poisoned the alcohol he brought him or that random jewish guy with Hesh who we see (who btw stands up for Tony throughout the conversation) and Hesh says something along the lines of he's the type of guy I would use to deal with a guy like him... this could be a hint where Tony used a guy like Hesh to deal with Hesh. The show went so far out of the way to show Hesh having stomach issues in every scene that I don't think it was a coincidence. And I realize the argument is that Hesh was stressed over the situation with Tony, but I don't think the show would have made this point to the degree that they did in every scene including the scene where he finds his girlfriend dead (he just got out of the bathroom). And at the very least we know he was considering whacking Hesh and he was paying Hesh back the bare minimum each time. Tony has endless amounts of dick moves over the course of the show but how he treated Hesh over the loan ranks near the top for me. I also think the ending is supposed to be ambiguous in the sense of who killed Tony. Tony has about 5 plausible directions the hit could be from and Hesh is one of them in my opinion and I don't think the show wants us to know who it was, other than Tony had it coming from numerous sources. One of them being to keep him talking to the FEDS which Tony already had been talking to that one FED on a regular basis.

It's kind of confusing what the show is trying to depict with AJ in the later half of the 6th season. That scene that Lynch shows while saying that AJ lacked the stomach for the violence required to maintain control. I interpreted it as though in that scene in particular AJ is beginning to embrace the violence. In the next episode AJ partakes in and even escalates the instance where he and his friends beat up the Somalian guy who ran into the car door. And shortly thereafter AJ is talking to his psychiatrist giving some spiel about how screwed up the world is and why can't we all just get along. AJ tells the therapist about the Somalian kid his friends beat up off screen and the therapist says did you think about stopping it and AJ says something along the lines of I'm only one individual what can I do (whereas not only didn't he stop it, he escalated it and was into it), which is hilarious because before and after that AJ is going on to his therapist about all of these foreign conflicts/affairs and AJ proceeds to remain hung up and preoccupied by all things in the world that are external to himself, but the horrible things he saw and was involved in first hand had no effect on him. It's confusing what the show is trying to depict... AJ is clearly going through a depression, but he is happy and does well when he's hanging around with the boys engaging in violence. But AJ remains in a depressed funk focusing on the external world... he reads the poem "the second coming", quits school and either genuinely attempts suicide or knows that it will fail and as a result get a pass for dropping out of school and get favor with his parents, which ultimately happens. His dad hooks him up with that gig with Carmine Junior, so he's going to be around or connected to that lifestyle going forward. I'm pretty sure the show is demonstrating to us that AJ is like Tony... and will possibly follow in his footsteps going forward. I guess they're both manic depressive or something and the mafia lifestyle is the one thing that brings them comfort perhaps? Tony was the same way where he gets stressed over foreign affairs, yet killing or witnessing the killing of someone doesn't effect him.

[@dawdus]

Fun fact: old Carmine is portrayed by Anthony Vallelonga, better known as Tony Lip. An episode of his life, when he became a driver for a black classical pianist Don Shirley, was dramatised in 2018 film Green Book. Tony Lip was portrayed by Viggo Mortensen.

[@seanbhoycfc4834]

I don't think Little Carmine was ever actually stupid. But his failed attempts at making himself sound to Tony like he had more to offer the Omerta or even the situation than the following he has loyal to his father and influence he has with his dad. In the first meeting he's like an older AJ. Who AJ wanted to be. With his Dad's influence and finance he had the potentia anyway to run a chain of clubs. Of course, Carmine had long proved he could do that and despite early little Carmine having parallels with Fredo Carmine was rightly quite proud of that reputation until he stepped up for what he felt was his Birth Right and as Johnny said Tony legitimised him in their world. The battles with John, the bloodshed that John did start. Angelo's guidance and Rusty's Kingmaker guidance. That would change anyone but by Season 6 B Little Carmine has realised where his true strength lies in terms of his father's legacy and he is indeed an effective mediator when he wants to be. "You know you've got the Support" "You never thought you'd say those words did you?" In that moment I feel Tony envies him a little. If Livia didn't make out that Johnny left them very little and such a package was given to Tony before he made his bones and Livia was a different person altogether then perhaps Tony could have used his own Dad's wealth and influence to start a chain of clubs, restaurants whatever. Not officially part of the mafia but a high ranking associate maybe. Whether he wanted it anymore or not I feel Carmine would have been the perfect successor to Phil. To stabilise the family again. I see him as a Castellano type boss after his experience from the war with John. Not a stone Gangster by any means but a good mind for business, organising the family and helping make it vert profitable. Plus, a long list of loyal soldiers ready to handle the bloodshed that seemed to be the biggest factor in him making the deal with John. As always, really love your analysis my friend. I hope this channel will keep growing with like minded Sopranos fanatics and theorists 👌

[@Rorschachqp]

The whole thing between Carmine Jr. vs. Johnny Sack was all Rusty Millio and Andrew Garepe running that show. For bowing out, keeping most of his wealth, health, life and none of his loved ones harmed, plus reserving himself a permanent good will role with both NY and NJ, that was a 5 head move, whether or not he meant to do it.

Carmine Jr was a moron and still managed to survive longer than most of them, always remained neutral and always negotiated things. He's the definition of peace between the families.
