A Bronx Tale
Robert De Niro, 1993

In 1960, Lorenzo works as a MTA bus driver in Belmont, a working-class Italian-American neighborhood in The Bronx, with his wife Rosina and their nine-year old son Calogero. When Calogero chooses to keep quiet when questioned by NYPD detectives, Sonny takes a liking to him and gives him the nickname C. Sonny’s men offer Lorenzo a better paying job, but preferring a law-abiding life as a bus driver, politely declines.
