Don't think I've seen Bronx tale. Another film I like is boys in the hood

Boyz N The Hood, very good film as far as black crime films go. If you enjoyed that, try Menace II Society. I felt it was a touch grittier than BNTH and it's more realistic in my opinion.

But still both very good films.

I'll look out for it mate, cheers. I like the gritty film especially British ones. A good wee british film worth a deck is based in greenock I think called sweet sixteen.

Very convoluted plot, great perfomances.Some scenes stay in the memory ,the lift scene,coming up to the punch bag,The scene at the station, when they play yesterday.The dancing sequences, the confrontation near the end,and Amapola great song.

catch phrases, "how come you didnt tell me?" " I've been going to bed early".

I can't have all that talk, I asked the one white lad who was talking like that, I said "just when did you decide to talk like that? Your mom never raised you to talk like that, so why start now, you sound like you've got learning difficulties" lol. He didn't know what to do with himself.

"I aint from Africa, Im from Crenshaw Mafia"

 

Boyz...Is a great movie, proper takes me back to my VHS collection taped on Morrisons Maxell 4 packs

 

Other favourites here include The savagely underated "UNDISPUTED" With Wesley Snipes in...

 

Also check out the fantastic and largely unheard of "FRESH"

 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109842/

 

Well worth a watch........

 

Personal favourite????

 

in a world of Danny Dyer esque Nuts readers film goers, The nothing Short of fantastic "A river runs through it" still grips me everytime i stumble across it

You absolute buffoon, you just sit around watching re-runs of " Gangsters, Yardies and Onion Bajeys"...........MELT!

Hardly trying to make heroes out of them is it ? Unless you're a complete moron who see's the things they portray in the film as heroic.

All the films do is show you how life was (still is in certain places) for the black sub-culture. Nothing heroic, just another story.
