The Big Picture In 1993, James Gandolfini was a completely unknown actor. He had an uncredited role in the Bruce Willis film The Last Boy Scout and a small role as a petty criminal in the Melanie Griffith-led drama A Stranger AmongUs in 1992. So, when he got the part of Virgil in the Quentin Tarantino-written and Tony Scott-directed classic noir thriller True Romance, it would serve as a pivotal moment in the young actor's career.
