A BRONX TALE Movie Reaction! | First Time Watch | Robert De Niro | Chazz Palminteri | Lillo Brancato

I never realized Chazz Palminteri not only starred in this but wrote it based on his experience as a kid.

"Nows yous can't leave"... great movie.

Robert De Niro, as the director, pushed very hard to keep the interracial relationship in the movie, imitating his own life experiences. And we know how Robert loves black women 😉.

Chazz Palminteri who plays Sonny wrote this story based on his real life. He made it a play and starred in it himself. The play was a huge hit and and movie companies wanted to purchase it and pay him big money for the rights to it, but he wouldn't budge when it came to his demands to play Sonny in the movie. He was broke but never gave in to offers of a million dollars until Deniro saw the play and offered to fund it and allow Palminteri to play Sonny. Chazz Palminteri's real first name is Calogero, so the entire movie is what he experienced as a child.

“Saddest thing in life is wasted talent” Real line every

This movie is an absolute classic.

As an Italian who loves eating tomatoes like apples I feel attacked. 😂😂

Eddie Mush is a real person and that is him playing himself. It’s his only movie credit.

I would like to think that Lorenzo realizes that if C had listened to him and had stayed away from Sonny like he told him to, C would've probably been killed with his friends. The irony is Sonny was trouble but kept his kid out of trouble for the most part. C was raised well but he was stubbornly loyal to those crap friends of his. Sonny knew how bad they were and I think helped keep C level headed. Anyway, I really love this movie. Everyone did such a great job.
