A Bronx Tale is a movie about a boy named Cologero who is torn between his bus drivning father, Lorenzo (Robert De Niro) and a local mob boss

named Sonny (Chazz Palaminteri).Cologero witnesses a shooting outside his apartment involving Sonny. Cologero is then asked to identify the shooter. Knowing what

the conciquences would be, Cologero lies and says he doesn't recognise the shooter all the while knowing it was Sonny. Sonny then sees something within Cologreo

and takes him under his wing and teaches him all about the streets and making people respect you. This angers Lorenzo who doesn't want to see his son grow up to be

a street gangster instead tries to tell him that "The workign man is the tough guy." Of course as a willful kid he disobeys his father and continues to go to the bar and be

a part of this lifestyle. Cologero then has two fathers, one who he lives with and signs his report cards. And one who he runs errands for and rules the street with.This

movie tackles all aspects of the 1960's New York. Race and the importance of the neighborhood are all issues that easily recognisable here.All the actors on display pull out great

performances. De Niro as usual
