People are unkind, and deep affection

In the Bronx district of New York in the 1960s, doo-wop music was sweeping the city. What a wonderful time.

I, an eight-year-old boy, would sit on the stairs and watch a man from morning till night. This man is the gang boss in this neighborhood, Sonny.

So, in an incident that seemed to me to shoot and kill people because it was fighting for a parking space, I didn't correct Sonny because I witnessed the whole crime, and since then I have become friends with Sonny. Dad is very angry because Sonny is not a good person. People love him not because they love him, but because they are afraid of him. In this way, my father and sonny didn't say a word. But I don't listen to dissuasion, and I secretly go to the bar opened by Sonny to help guests serve tea and water to earn tips.

In this way, 10 years later, I am 18 years old, and Sonny's influence has also expanded. Sonny has always regarded me as a friend, but my father was sad because he saw me and Sonny mixed together. My dad often said: "The greatest sorrow in life is to waste my talent." At that time, I didn't fully understand the meaning of this sentence. After many years, I didn't clarify whether the shooting was really due to a parking lot. Bit happens. "Who cares." Like sonny often tells me, no one cares. When sonny saw that I was furious because a classmate owed me 20 dollars and avoided meeting people, he stopped me and said to me very seriously, Nobody cares, you “get rid of” one for 20 dollars. Isn't the person who upsets you very good? Yes, every time I am upset, Sonny always asks me to talk, give me enlightenment, and a lot of advice in life. And when I was about to make a mistake, sonny would come to stop it. Yes, even my life.

Everything has a cause and effect. Sonny eventually died of the shooting 10 years ago, and I gradually understood the truth that Dad often told me. Understand that we have to accept love and be loved unconditionally. Understand, the country is easy to change, but you have to accept it. At the same time, I understand that don't waste your talents. The choices you make determine your life. Back in time to that day, why did Sonny shoot? Maybe it's because people are not affectionate and affectionate. Some people care so much. These people are the people they love.

Robert De Niro's debut, directed and acted, is a very classic movie, with a strong sense of substitution and age of the soundtrack, a masterpiece.
