different childhood

Wonderful childhood growth story, there are a lot of conflicts throughout the movie, C and his father, his father and Zinny, the conflict between white and black, and two murder scenes, but it does not hinder the warmth of this movie, C There is a righteous and responsible father, Xinni who dotes on him and teaches him many philosophy of life, and the beautiful black pearl. I just didn't understand one thing, who put the bomb on Xinni's car? The movie didn't explain it until the end. After much deliberation, it was only the person who killed Xinni at the end, because Xinni was his father's enemy. If you come out and mix, you always have to pay it back. Maybe that's what this film is about. Xinni knows that the underworld is a road of no return, and he can't help himself, so don't repeat the same mistakes. At the beginning of the film, Xinni kills, and at the end of the film, Xinyi is revenge. The first and last echoes.

Robert De Niro's directorial debut, four-star movie, five-star story. The title of the film is also translated as "Different Childhood", which is actually a "different gangster story". A boy and his two fathers, one believes in Machiavelli and the other believes that workers are the real tough guys. Two completely different philosophies of existence, reconciled at the end. The most sincere feelings are the most moving, and the most simple truths are the most lasting. From "The Godfather" to "Empire of the Atlantic" to this film, Sicilians have a consistent attitude towards life and family. Love the way core values are delivered in this form.

Although many plots in the film can be found in similar films, such a warm gangster story about growing up can still be said to be unique in this type of film. The two leading actors in the film, who are also a director and a writer, cooperate very well, but De Niro's control of the rhythm is not perfect. Overall, the film is good~
