# A Bronx Tale - Parental Guide
This R-rated drama contains strong violence and language unsuitable for children, including brutal street fights and frequent profanity. While the story about a boy choosing between his father and a mobster offers meaningful themes, the intense crime content, moderate sexual scenes, and morally ambiguous characters make it best for mature teens and adults only.
Synopsis
Set in the Bronx during the tumultuous 1960s, an adolescent boy is torn between his honest, working-class father and a violent yet charismatic crime boss. Complicating matters is the youngster's growing attraction - forbidden in his neighborhood - for a beautiful black girl.
