The Sopranos - Tony's mom runs over her friend

.

[@TheEwing69]

The lady that was ran over was also in Livia’s funeral episode. At the house, she’s in a wheelchair saying how Livia was her best friend, when Janice had everyone give their memories of Livia.

[@sexyhomeowner9345]

Good catch

[@greg2016]

I've watched through the entire series twice and I never caught that. That detail really makes that scene feel even more awkward and hilarious, somehow

[@AnAbsurdExistence]

Proshai, Livushka

[@markb5403]

I've seen this show at least 8 or 9 times all the way through and never noticed that before! When Chris is going on his massive stoned monologue, that was a brilliant episode!

[@sarzac]

I actually felt really bad for Livia's friend at the funeral. She was the only one to say anything remotely positive about Livia despite this accident, and then the whole thing turns into a Livia-bashing session (which, yeah, Livia deserved). That must have been so awkward for this woman to just sit there and listen to since she seemed to actually like Livia.

[@Groteskfull]

Good to know I'm not the only one! 😆 This little scene has a VERY high replay value, and that's really saying something considering that the series itself already has a high replay value.

[@vladimirhorowitz]

@@Groteskfull And it gets better when you watch it again because you keep noticing extra stuff. Like how she slaps her purse on the hood of the car perfectly on collision. I think the best part is how the woman's ass ends up facing the windshield perfectly for a second. Absolutely classic.

They didn't use a stunt double actually, David Chase insisted that the elder woman be run over so the scene could be more ''realistic''.

Lol, yeah especially the pilot episode. Tony had the dialect of an Off Broadway mobster, as opposed to the full on premium cable mobster dialect he developed as the series progressed. The pilot episode almost had the feel of a play. Particularly Tony's scenes with Melfi. It's obvious that Chase's vision of what the series was to be, changed dramatically once it became an undeniable success.

[@stagna1959]

We often forget that Sopranos is comedy - dark, with lot of violence and sick humour, but a comedy . What about Paulie and Christopher lost in woods ( hilarious ! ) Richie Aprile shot and sawed into pieces in meat factory, feds installing microphone in Tony`s lamp, Ralph prank call to Paulie`s mom and many other scenes which are just comedy gold. This is one of them. You just cant take it seriously even though you know poor woman was badly injured and in pain.

[@jayson657]

It’s a 63 Olds 88 and I think you’re right that it isn’t the cars original color. I always thought it didn’t make sense for Livia to be driving that car. When Tony had flash backs to the late 60’s his father was driving what would have been a fairly new blue Cadillac. So why would 30 years later his mother be driving an even older car with a horrible paint job. This episode aired around 1999/2000, Johnny Soprano died in 1986. Seems like it would made have more sense if she was driving something like a terrible power blue color mid 80’s Cadillac Fleetwood or Lincoln that Johnny would have bought not too long before he died.
