How Chazz Palminteri Created the Movie “A Bronx Tale”

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

I always knew it was based on a true story but never thought it was HIS life. Respect!

[@Gpaiva24]

This clip was just over 18 mins, and Chazz had me hooked. Felt much shorter. What a great story

[@Rick-bi9fw]

I'm 5 mins in and feels like 5 secs lol

[@airplanebuilder8685]

[@Lettusfarm]

For real. Didn't realize until I looked lol

[@Taito3D]

Just had my kid watching "A Bronx Tale" while we quarantine. And he loved it. I was so happy that he loved it.

[@williamjburkhardt]

I will never get tired of hearing this story

[@timelesstechwatches]

A Bronx Tale is my favorite movie of all time, I loved everything about it. I can relate to it in many ways as well, I can't say enough about this movie. It's like a "Goodfellas", in the sense that you can't not watch this movie in your life.

[@zoltankaparthy9095]

This is the most beautiful movie I know because it speaks to character. I have seen it a bunch of times and will watch it again tonight. Beautiful story, beautifully told, beautifully filmed. No wasted talent in this show, baby, none at all.

[@steveamoni641]

Incredible , Chazz history is almost identical to Stallone when he was a struggling actor and wrote Rocky and held out until he played the role

[@littlemac844]

This is the American Dream incarnate. Thank You Chaz

I really love Chaz's energy and integrity above all everything else. He knew he had something good, and he stuck with what he wanted to do. How can you not love this guy? That's the dream right there. That's the real Rocky story.

[@stevehalli1538]

Love Chaz. My mothers family is full blooded Sicilian, somehow over the years because of her trips regular trips to Arthur ave and through social media. she became somewhat friends with him. He is the most respectful and down to earth man.

@@MM-bt8ke let me help you so called friend. Stop killing children, women. You have killed 70 children this year alone, thousands were disabled girls and boys mostly aged under 5 during the bombing of gaza this year. Shameful. You bombed thier homes/hospitals/schools and in bethleham the Christians were insulted by settlers last week. When are you going to protest against the war crimes of your terrorist governments in the last decade. You are the status quo. Dont get ot twisted think uae/saudi prople are cool with you, the government there are doing so for israeli surveillance tech and hatred for iran. People around the eorld hate israeli oppression. It wont last. History shows.

[@MM-bt8ke]

@@mrfasm1644 sounds good! Just let me know when we are going to stand side by side to fight Hamas leaders who oppress their own population, blame Israel for everything meanwhile their stealing billions and billions of aid dollars from its own population. HAMAS leaders kids live in Paris, Dubai, London, driving in Ferraris and other luxury cars means while the average Palestinian cross the borders into Israel every day to work and make a decent living. You refuse to look at the mirror, you refuse to accept facts and let's be honest your probably living in north america speaking from a place of privilege without having any actual on the ground knowledge or direct experience. Keep your western view opposed vs oppresser propaganda to yourself! Want to stop killing? Want to protest it? Let's see you call out Hamas a world recognized terrorist group; if you can't do that, there is nothing else to talk about and you fake! You don't care care Arabs, you don't care about dying children; you just trying repeating the same speaking points any uniformed idiot on your team says. Have some original thoughts or perspective on the subject and only then come @ me. Great podcast! Great topic! Great ending!

[@MM-bt8ke]

@@mrfasm1644 FYI.. the terrible human crimes Hamas does to ITS OWN Arab people on a typical Monday; israel will need 5000 years to achieve just half of the evil shit that goes on in Gaza by Hamas. Facts are; Arabs in Israel (within israeli borders) have a higher standard of living than 19 out of the 21 Arab countries today!! Arabs in Israel are more educated Arabs in Israel have longer life expectancy Arabs in Israel have higher earning income Arabs in Israel have ability to vote for their party leader Arabs in Israel can be homosexual or a women with an opinion and not be killed Arabs in israel have electricity and water... I have been to Jordan, I have been to Lebanon, I have been Eygpt.. I know all one needs to know about Syria and Iraq.. I have seen with own 2 eyes children and women carrying water buckets: people sit in the dark, people live in dirt roads with no basic anything; while their governments, kings, "leaders" are living lavishly with golden toilets in their castles... You keep telling yourself Israel is the enemy and Israel is the root of all human suffering (I have heard it all before; doesn't change the facts).. but anyone who has been places, a local, or lives with the people or among the people knows what is really goes on. Google "The Son of Hamas" 95% of arab countries are living in 3rd world conditions standards with corrupt, oppressive leadership. You want to blame Israel that's okay; keep talking about bombing homes and dead children; but keep ignoring the 4500 rockets launched on civilians from Gaza into Israel (who by the way killed Arabs and Muslims just like they killed Israelis). Ignor the fact that Gaza shoots rockets daily and never stopped even when signing a ceasefire (no honor; talk about shameful) using homes, schools and hospitals as launching pads hoping and praying Israel will attack so misinformed idiots like you give hamas the support they need to keep the conflict going so their leaders can continue to steal money from the average Palestinian. You want to ignore the facts; you go ahead and do that; but anyone with half a brain knows whats really going on and life will continue as it is; unless idiots like you finally wake up and realize what's causing this issues. Keep boycotting; keep hating; the worst part you will soon go into your work, go get drunk with your friends, go party or do whatever you do with you're life while children under hamas and other Arab leadership will continue to exploit their own people.. but don't worry; I am sure you will remember to leave a misinformed anti-israel comment on some social media platform video that has nothing to do with politics to make yourself feel better! 😉

I've heard about half of this story I remember that Chazz was doing his one act play at Joseph Papp theater Manhattan. One of my friends from high school worked on locations for a Bronx tail. He told me a pretty cool story for him and how he got the job for locations. Most of the movie was shot in Queens because the merchants of Arthur Avenue in The Bronx would have lost too much money to close their businesses down for the making of A Bronx Tale.
