The movie A Bronx Tale was based on a true story (Chazz Palminteri's, right?). So on who was Sonny based? Wich family operate in the Fordham Section of the Bronx?

Calogero, actually. :rolleyes: And what do you think the position of the real Sonny was, in one of the Four Families? Caporegime, maybe?
See, we can act as smart as we want, but at the end of the day, we still follow a guy who fucks himself with kebab skewers.

Originally posted by Don Cardi: Since you posted I've been going crazy doing searches and such to see if I could find any hint of who Sonny was based on. Nothing! It's now driving me nuts. The character of Sonny was called "Little Johnny" (and supposedly based on someone by that name) in Palminteri's play (on which the movie is based). Who "Little Johnny" was is a mystery.

Thanks all of you... Originally posted by Enzo Scifo: Calogero, actually. :rolleyes:
And what do you think the position of the real Sonny was, in one of the Four Families? Caporegime, maybe? I think he was a caporegime. Calogero mentioned that Sonny became a boss, but i think thats not true.
