And I don't say that lightly. I loved Mockingbird and Miracle Worker, and I consider this film to be in their class - in fact, to be better than either.
It's the biography of the central character who begins as a child of about nine years old.
Being that it is an honest biography, and being that life doesn't go the way you expect it to almost ever, this movie is impossible to second-guess. So when you're watching it, and you think oh this would be the next element of the plot, you're likely to be wrong.
I was amazed at this wonderful film having never heard of it. I was born on the West Coast and this is surely an East Coast movie. DeNiro does an excellent directorial job, and the acting is flawless.
Prepare to be deeply affected in ways you never expected by Mr. De Niro's wonderful, "A Bronx Tale."
