There are a lot of movies from the late 80's you could have known Chazz Palminteri from but most people just got to know him when in '93 his biographical movie "A bronx tale" was released. It became a movie classic even though most people just saw it as a nice fictional story. The man played his own childhood and teenage friend Sonny and became famous with it. After that many top roles followed like in "Faithful" with Cher, "The Usual Suspects", "Bullets over broadway" and about 50 more Hollywood productions.
Who's that guy and why doesn't everyone remember his name if he's that famous you may wonder. Well, it's the "It's this guy again"-phenomenon again. Everyone's seen Chazz in some movies but no one would recall who again he is. Well I can assure you at least he's a great actor!
Last year Chazz Palminteri started a broadway show on "A bronx tale" as a sold out one man thing. There again he showed everyone what kinda actor he is - a legend who's on one level with his friend DeNiro!

My personal Top 5 roles:
- A Bronx tale
- Faithful
- A guide to recognizing your saints
- Down to earth
- Mulholland Falls
Dear Mr. Palminteri,
I am still sorry I couldn't make it to the show but I am optimistic your coming up (currently 5) movie productions will be just as good! Man, you really are one of if not the best in your field! Keep it up!
