• A moving story about life in the Bronx, NYC.
  I've seen this movie numerous times, and definitely think it's worth commenting on. It was originally released in 1993 (directed by Robert De Niro - his directorial debut), and having seen it on VHS quite a few years back, I felt that I had to have a copy on DVD.

• Excellent Movie About a Neighborhood I Actually Grew Up In

  Update:
  Without prejudicing my commendation of this film, one aspect of it made me uncomfortable; the sanitisation of a couple of scenes of strong violence by not having any trace of blood when by rights there should be plenty. I am torn over this practice. more info
