The Bronx Tale is one of my favorite movies of all times!

[@kathleenpapaleo8891]

royal7bonez De Niro dedicated the film to his artist father, Robert De Niro, Sr.

[@888alp]

A true story, people like the truth 💙🙏🏻

[@adamhemingway4957]

Great movie

[@maxipereira3345]

Fucking great movie!

[@stephenbwalya4352]

The saddest thing in the world is wasted talent...

[@jorgerobles9484]

This is one of the few actors that really looks like a gangster or a mafia boss. Great actor, now you can see him in Godfather of Harlem

[@muksii86]

Where to watch Godfather of Harlem?

[@stephenfermoyle4578]

and a a great WRITER

[@michaels.8244]

Sunnyyyyyy... Now Yous cant leave

[@samerelsahih]

HAHAHAHA epic comment man

[@depyk7989]

Chazz deserved an Oscar!!!!!!!!

[@MiguelGonzalezP]

Hell yeah , im so pissed that a bronx tale was not at the oscars for any awards. Such a great movie.

[@Caduceus0508]

Was a great movie. Respect to Deniro for letting Chazz star and playing a secondary role

[@MRdivod]

this guy is sooooooooooo mafia ... even outside the movies xD

[@joske103]

A Bronx Tale is a classic

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

Classic shit, an embarrassment.

[@Ghaemi350z]

Chazz, most badass name ever.

[@isabelledesu]

a bronx tale will always be my favorite movie of all time and a part of me believes it was real for chazz

You have zero taste. It's awful.

[@Ffsdevgj]

The energy Chazz projects was amazing.

[@AlexMartinez-mn8bg]

De Niro looks like Einstein lol

[@sdseals2076]

Omg, I thought that too.

[@888alp]

Oh my god Robert Di nero was so handsome back then. Lucky women who close to him. 💙💙

[@salmankhalid3525]

He is a wise guy

[@user-tw8yo6rr5p]

Chazz wrote bronx tale because it was his real life, he was the kid!

[@cappu7367]

1:05 De Niro looking at him like when did i say that??

[@rickyt11]

A Bronx Tale, What a great movie. I cried and I laugh. Thank you Robert and Chazz Palminteri.

[@abdulmumin6251]

He had less hair in the Bronx tale that came out in 1993 this talk was in 2003

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

Crap movie.

[@thelupoistheman1]

If you have not seen A Brinx Tale, you are out of your mind. Its beyond incredible.

[@kathleenpapaleo8891]

Daniel Lupo Saw it on the big screen. Didn't even know who De Niro was at the time. Only saw Raging Bull before that.

[@darrellr.bacon4677]

Mr. Palminteri was the PERFECT choice to play Sonny in A Bronx Tale. Still today one if my all time greatest and most favorite movies. DeNiro is a genius in my opinion and it would be a total honor to meet him in person one day before my time is up. I've thoroughly enjoyed so many of his films and I think the first one I saw was Taxi Driver. He never fails to impress the hell outta me on the big screen. Thank you Bob. You always leave us wanting more. If I ever had the opportunity to see New York in person I'd want to see it with DeNiro as the travel guide and story teller. I think Id need a week or two to see it all.

[@65637guy]

A Bronx tale is such a great movie, When your younger you watch it and enjoy the depiction of gangster life and coolness of the street and then when your older you realize it's actually a movie about being a good dad and role model.

[@winniejohnson5559]

Also that it’s a true story based on chazz’s life

[@HereMikeWas]

I just watched A Bronx Tale for the 20th time again last night and it is one brilliant movie..

[@TonyVega123]

I've had a hard time in finding that movie on DVD. They really need to get this movie out there. It's exceptional.

[@michaelmisczuk1188]

It was a heckuva movie.

[@stephenmccollum1391]

A Bronx Tale is a remarkable film

[@stereo-type1510]

De niro looks uncomfortable but you can tell he is grateful for the recognition from his peers

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

He's uncomfortable because on a night dedicated to him this guy is reminding everyone of De Niro's dismal attempt at directing.

[@mikedemirdjian9976]

Dismal? De Niro did a terrific job!

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

@@mikedemirdjian9976 I thought it was awful.

[@mikedemirdjian9976]

@@sheilamacdougal4874 It was more of a guy's movie any way. Just like I didn't care for Beaches.

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

@@mikedemirdjian9976 Guys, shmuys. I loved Scorcese's classics: Mean Streets, Goodfellas, Casino, because they were brilliantly made. This one was just stupid. Some of the scenes looked fake. The story was stupid, contrived. It was very amateur, and unlike Scorcese's classics, or any great films, not one I ever want to watch even a second time.

[@countalucard4226]

Really liked Chaz in Bullets Over Broadway

[@BloodyBearss]

vic vega i cant find the movie online or did u watched it on cd

[@countalucard4226]

I saw it on cable, HBO, showtime Cinemax one of those. I haven't seen it thou for quite a while now. If you like Woody Allen then you should definitely see it somehow. Chaz was great.

[@theogaccount3791]

@Katharer45 you misread his comment. it is illegal to watch it ONLY ONE TIME which means you must watch it more than once.

Even with all the crap that is going on in Italy, De Niro reinforces in me the pride of coming from that country and being italian.
