A Bronx Tale





This scene is where Sunni meets Calogero Anello, the young boy.
The tone of the scene is meant to be calm but humorous because Sunni is a notorious man known in the mafia business, Calogero witnessed a shooting that Sunni performed.
The dialogue in the scene is quick and short with small hesitation coming from the young boy, this just conveys some shyness rather than fear.
The background music is from the surroundings where the actors are set, they are in a small bar and the noise is from honking cars and people chattering, this could be to enhance the environment and create a more realistic mood.
From where the scene begins, with the young boy led into the bar by a chubby man, there are subjective shots of Sunni and him done, this is done to emphasise the conversation between them, the shots aren't close up but a medium close up shot. This also helps the viewer concentrate on the conversation between these two characters than being distracted by the background noise.
The lighting is done to be quite natural and lighten up doom lit bar. Certain shots, the lighting is harsh and other areas soft, mainly when the medium close up shots  are done, the lighting is soft, only casting a small shadow on the main subjects faces.
Towards the end of the scene, when the young boy has sat down next to Sunni, a low angle shot is used to add to the type of power Sunni has, and how dominant he can be, the camera is looking up at Sunni and his partner which gives the impression of him being somewhat majestic.
