Down here my guys bigger than yours is
In the movie A Bronx Tale, Sonny is like a god to C. C looks up to him in every way possible but he doesn't really fit in with Sonny's crowd. C is apart of 3 major groups: Sonny's gang, his friends, and his family. His father is trying to look out for him and do whats best for him but C just wants to do what he has his mind set on. He wants to be Sonny's friend. I don't really think he fits into Sonny's group. C is trying to be something he is not and he's better off just being himself. His friends also are not the best indication of who he is as a person. I don't think he agrees with all their beliefs in reference to African Americans and violence. I think C is best off just representing his family. His father is a hard working man who takes pride in what he does. As the movie continues, I hope that C realizes he can be amount to more than what people around him have achieved.

Yeah I agree with you that C is best off with his family. Making an honest living is the best way to do it and it is even socially acceptable.
ReplyDeleteI also think that C is better off earning an honest living, but I also think that C learned a lot from Sonny...even though he wasn't the best guy, I liked him.
ReplyDeleteI think that one scene where sonny pulled C away after the gun selling thing and told him that his life is not right for him had a big impact on C. He finally understood he should be his own man.
