Title: A Bronx Tale
Post by: eazye on April 03, 2008, 08:51:58 AM: FUcking fascinating movie.De Niro's debut as a director is one great piece of work if you ask me.Great story about a young boy growing up and learning about life from 2 "father" figures.Watched this for the 2nd time last night and It reminded me how amazed I was the first time I saw it

gotta say that the soundtrack is really good too

My favorite part is when little C is shooting craps and they keep throwing all of the unlucky dudes in to the bathroom...

Yeah, Chazz is the fucking man... Should be getting more starring roles for sure, cause he's one of the prime method actors still working...

Well, he's been in 40 movies since The Bronx tale, I'd say he's doing good..

Another interesting trivia:

Lillo Brancato (playing 'old' Calogero 'C' Anello) is on trial for armed robbery which led to a police man's death..

Quote
In December 2005, he was arrested and hospitalized after he and a friend, Steven Armento, were shot by an off-duty police officer Daniel Enchautegui while the officer was investigating a burglary in New York City. The officer was killed, and Brancato and Armento face murder charges.
