...drama focuses on Anthony Soprano (James Gandolfini), a suburban dad and Mafioso whose general malaise and thorny mommy issues send him to the couch. While refraining from slapping the comedy on too thick, creator David Chase has made Soprano's inward search surprisingly affecting. Soprano may not have Ally McBeal's legs, but his introspection is a lot more fun to watch...
...Windows, by the way. And both include free mail programs: Netscape comes with Messenger and Microsoft gives away Outlook Express, which has been upgraded. Again, I prefer Microsoft's offering: Outlook looks snappier and offers a great way to handle junk mail.

In short, this darkly sumptuous, hypnotically complex movie ought to have many constituencies, even in the age of Ally McBeal. The largest of them may turn out to be moviegoers hungry for rich, old-fashioned historical spectacle and eager to revel in the subtle grace with which Cate Blanchett takes the title character from wariness to regality...
