Paternal love and paternal love

In the United States in the 1960s, there were big and small gangs in the neighborhoods. Among them, it seems that black and white people will never appear in the same gang. The protagonist C grew up in an Italian neighborhood. I know why I always feel that the Italian gangsters are so in awe, so creed, and so philosophical. This is the so-called Italian gangster background.
C's father was a rigorous person and never violated his creed. He was a crucial infection for C's growth. Johnny is the boss of this neighborhood. Everyone respects him and fears him. Only C is not afraid of him and treats him as his father. Johnny also cares for C, but Johnny never trusts anything. People, including C. After an incident of borrowing Johnny's car, C had a big blow to Johnny's father image.
I personally feel that Robert De Niro knows better about the role of Johnny than his father, so why didn't he play Johnny? It may be that he is the director and wants to interpret the soul of the whole movie. The hard-working father of his life drove the bus every day to earn a meager salary. Even if he worked hard, he was unwilling to accept money from the gang. The young C didn't understand why his father was so.
In the end Johnny was killed, C realized that no one cares about these four words, but Johnny was also wrong, because C cares, Johnny also said from time to time not to follow my old path, which is why he does not trust any The reason for people. Finally, the strict father also came. It is not difficult to see what he thought in his heart when he gave the warning. If you die, my son will not mix with you, so you can rest assured. In fact, my father didn't understand Johnny's love for C, maybe he did, but he was afraid that C would follow Johnny's path.
This is a typical Italian gangster film. To be involved in the underworld, you must have a creed and use your brain to do things. There are many godfather-level lines in the film, and I sincerely admire the traditional Italian gangs.
PS: Pay tribute to the film "The Godfather", and also pay tribute to this film.
