Anyone ever see A BRONX TALE? |
|
I saw it for the third time tonight...
Wonderful movie - Just a well woven /well told story with excellent performances by Robert DeNiro and Chazz Palmintieri.
Its about a young boy growing up and being influenced by two different forces - his hard working dad and the neighborhood mob boss.
Recommended!

Nice coming of age love story, too.
I have a feeling it was autobiographical, on Mr. Palmatieri's part?

6. Yes, he wrote it as a one person play...and it won all sorts of awards. |
|
Chazz's full first name is Calogero too, like the young boy.
Interestingly, it was also DeNiro's first directors role.
(My wife loved it too!!).
"Now you can't leave." - best line. Love the look on his face.

And I don't understand why it doesn't get any play. I think it's well-acted all around, and touching, and exciting, and all those things.
