A Bronx Tale Page #3

and we believe your son was there.

Really? Well, he knows

nothing about that.

Well, we feel he does.

There were people who saw him.

Well, they're wrong.

He don't know nothing.

Listen, Mr Anello. We can do things

the nice way or the hard way, all right?

I don't care what way you do it.

He don't know nothing.

Daddy, I know everything.

Kids. Sometimes they

make believe they see things.

We didn't pick your name out of a hat.

We know your son was down there.

So, come on, let's go.

Son, listen. Here's what

I'd like you to do for us.

I'd like you to take a walk downstairs

with us and your father.

We have people down there.

All I want you to do is pick out

the person you saw with the gun in his hand.

That's it. You think

you could do that for us?

Good. Come on.

Let's take a walk.

Mr. Anello,

take a walk downstairs.

- We won't be long. Go ahead.

- Officer, is he gonna be OK?

Everything's gonna be fine, dear.

They'll be back in two minutes.

There's Lorenzo.

Hey, fellas, turn around.

You two, take your hats off.

Hey! Put your head up.

Straight ahead. Look this way.

- Is that him?

- No.

How about this guy?

Straight ahead, fella.

- How about him?

- No.

Straight ahead, you.

How about this guy?

Give me an answer.

- How about him?

- No.

How about him?

Is it this guy?

Give me an answer.

Hey! Put your eyes up!

How about this guy?

Let's go. Hey, look

straight ahead! Over here.

Look at me. That's it.

Is it this guy?

- How about this guy?

- No.

OK.

Look at this guy.

How about him?

Hey! Straight ahead.

How about this guy?

Is it him?

Give me an answer.

No.

- You satisfied, Officer?

- No, I'm not satisfied.

- He don't know. He can't help you.

- Yeah, yeah, your son doesn't know anything.

- He said no, he can't help you.

- I'll tell you what. Take a walk.

- Go ahead. Go ahead. Take a walk.

- Come on, son. Let's go.

All right, you guys can breathe again.

Beat it. Get out of my sight.

- We really fooled them, Dad.

- Yeah, we fooled them.

I didn't rat, Dad, I didn't rat.

No, you didn't rat.

I did a good thing, right?

Yeah, you did a good thing -

you did a good thing for a bad man.

I did a good thing for a bad man.

I didn't understand that,

not at nine years old.

All I knew was...

a rat was the lowest thing anyone

could be in my neighbourhood...

and I didn't rat.

Daddy, why did you say

I did a good thing for a bad man?

Because sometimes in life you gotta do

certain things that you gotta do,

even though they're not right.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

No. It's just that I thought

I did the right thing.

Now I'm not sure I did.

You did do the right thing,

and when you get older, you'll understand why.
