Acerca deste filme

In Robert De Niro's stunning directorial debut, a devoted father battles a local crime boss for the life of his son. Growing up on the racially-divided mean streets of 1960s New York, 11-year-old Italian-American Calogero, or "C," idolizes sophisticated local mob boss Sonny (Chazz Palminteri), despite stern warnings from his working-class father (Robert De Niro). But when C gets older and defies his dad in order to join Sonny's dangerous gang, he finds that life is never black and white. Funny, touching and explosively honest, it's a provocative coming-of-age story you won't soon forget.

I used to love this flick but I tried to watch it again recently and it just seems like such a cliche. Definitely does not stand the test of time.

A excellent movie about the life of a young boy/man growing up in NYC with local mafia thugs, racial issues, both of color and family background and ideals, and the chance at love despite a families concerns. Narration is done very well by character.

Ive watched this movie so many times years ago ,and still holding up.Love the love story between the young man and the beautiful young black woman.You see people Love knows now color. The relationship between father and son was strained for a minute,but things have to play out so it worked out for the good things happen for a reason,God's plan always prevale.
