HBO Brings Sopranos Closer to Home

To promote their Sopranos DVDs, HBO gives us two spots entitled Pole and Hair.

Pushing the objective of “[Bringing] home the Sopranos — permanently,” spots include insider nods to the Badda Bing strip club and Paulie Walnut’s skunky hairdo. They were directed by Harvest Films’ Baker Smith for Venables, Bell & Partners, and edited by Phoenix Editorial & Designs.

Unless you’re an avid Sopranos watcher you’re probably going to be all “OMGWTFBBQ?!” That’s okay, because that’s part of why they’re so funny. We often stare sadly up at our ceilings at night and wish we were born in the mob. Sure there’s sporadic death and violence, but the mobsters’ otherwise zany antics (oh, and piles and piles of black market money) seem to make decent compensation.
