A Bronx Tale

The kid looked up at the faces in the lineout. He knew who did it; he’d seen Sonny kill the man just like that, right in front of him. But he wasn’t going to rat; nobody ratted in The Bronx.

Robert De Niro directs for the first time and stars in A Bronx Tale. This story of a boy brought up by two fathers, one an honest working man, the other a charismatic mafia boss, has been called “Goodfellas with a heart” by Variety. As the boy grows to manhood, he experiences the full range of emotions, the joy and pain of first love, the horror of conscienceless violence, the cold emptiness of death, and the received wisdom of two men, both of who love him in very differrent ways. Rarely can it be said that a film has everything: A Bronx Tale has!
