Movie

In the movie in class I found one interesting feature of the movie to be the fight in which all of the Italian boys start to beat up all of the black boys on the bicycles. This was an awful event but I found it interesting that the main character did not want to hurt the black boys despite his friends violent actions. I personally believe that the reason for this is because he is so close with the Mafia leader. In the movie, I feel that the Mafia leader is actually a good person and understands right and wrong. He realizes that his business is wrong and tries to keep the main character from making the same mistakes. Therefore, the mob leader is affecting the main characters sociological mind set into thinking that all people are equal and he is teaching him right from wrong. I think that it is very interesting that a man who acts in completely uncivilized ways can have such a positive effect on the main character. I think that this can relate to our world because everyone has adults, who they look up to, who look back on their life and realize that they made many awful mistakes, so they teach us not to make those mistakes and then we can live a happier and more successful life.
