Silvio Dante - Definition and Overview |
|
|
Silvio Dante (often just "Sil"), played by Steven Van Zandt, is Tony Soprano's consigliere on the fictional HBO TV series, The Sopranos.
Silvio operates the Bada Bing, the most recent in a string of strip clubs that he has operated, which is also one of the family's major meeting spots. Silvio is also one of the more level-headed associates of Tony Soprano. Where many of Tony's men immediately become hot-headed and resort to violence, Silvio generally helps to mediate many situations. Because of this, Tony relies on Silvio to be a clear-headed thinker, someone he can trust (thus his status as consigliere). Silvio is also a strong father for his teenage daughter, Heather, whom, along with his wife, Gabriella, he loves more than anything.
