Bronx Tale

The movie so far is very good. Yes, sal your right there is alot of racism in it but it is projected ina way where it almost feels like they are being offensive to there own culture. I mean like obviously in this neighborhood there is crime and people like sonny, but i feel bad for C's father. I feel like he is a stand up guy in this corrupted area and he is just trying to teach him right. You can see the difference between him and his father towards the middle of the movie when C is starting to get older and into his teens, he seems as if he is pulling away from his father. It is very intense to see him want to be the black woman on the bus because throughout the whole movie it is projected like it is a bad thing to be attracted to the african american community so it will be interesting to see how that plays out. I really enjoy the movie so far and have a secret crush on sonny, shhh

I like the movie too. I noticed the same thing between C and his dad, I'm wondering if that could be a micro-sociological thing? The racism is there too, but now that we've finished the movie I wonder how things end up with Jane. There's really no mention of their relationship at the end of the movie and you know they see each other at school. Who knows, good movie.
