In Robert De Niro’s stunning directorial debut, a devoted father battles a local mob boss for the life of his son. Growing up on the racially divided streets of 1960s New York, 9-year-old Calogero, or “C”, idolizes sophisticated local gangster Sonny (Chazz Palminteri), despite stern warnings from his working-class father (Robert De Niro). But when “C” gets older, he finds himself torn between two worlds and must choose between earning respect like his father or commanding it like Sonny. Vividly evoking the sights and sounds of the iconic neighborhood, “A Bronx Tale” is a compelling story of love and loyalty.

Movies that got 30th anniversary editions on DVD and Laserdisc in the second half of the 90's, for example, felt so old, because they were from the 60's! An era away, that I did not know, or live through.
Well, now we're officially 'those old guys' that like and watch 'their old stuff' from 30 years ago...
Imagine how every 90's film will soon be 30 years old. Even Independence Day, and The Fifth Element.
