Back in the Day Page #10

Synopsis: Set in both the late 80's and current day, "Back in the Day" is a gritty tale about Anthony Rodriguez (William DeMeo), a half Italian - half Puerto Rican young teenager growing up on the streets of Bensonhurst, Brooklyn; a then very dangerous and racist neighborhood filled with bullies, big shots and social clubs where all of the neighborhood shots were called. Anthony had to endure an abusive, unemployed, alcoholic father but was blessed with a nurturing, hard-working mother who he loses at a very early age and is devastated by it. In spite of his bitterness, he struggles to uphold the morals his Mother taught him and retain his dignity in spite of being up against all odds. He is taken under the wing of a local mob boss, Enzo DeVino (Michael Madsen), who supports Anthony's wishes to escape his demons through the sport of boxing.

Do you really think I give a

f*** about you and your friend?

I've been waiting my whole life

to tell you what a f***in'

punk I think you are,

and I will see you outside.

You don't change, Dominick.

Go f*** yourself.

Okay, thank you.

What are you, f***in' stupid?

I'm so sorry, Mr. Dom...

hey, how do you like it, huh?

What's the matter, they can't hire

better busboys at this joint?

Leave him alone, Dominick.

Of course, one spic

defending another spic.

Oh, sh*t.

Go back to work.

I got this, Dino.

All right, Anthony.

You're such a jerk-off,

Dominick.

He's a boxer, right?

You want some?

Uh...

Get that f***in' camera

out of my face!

Oh, sh*t.

What are you staring at,

you bald headed prick?

Shoot him!

Go ahead. Shoot me.

You f***in' p*ssy! I knew I shouldn't

have let you in my f***ing crew.

Crew?

This isn't 1989 anymore,

Dominick.

Oh, sh*t.

Hey, that was awesome.

Don't be puttin' that

on YouTube, Sal.

On second thought,

do whatever you want.

Yeah?

- Ooh. -What are you

looking at, you prick?

- What do you think? -Get that

f***ing camera out of my face.

You can do something better

with your life.

You're gonna do

something better.

I don't know what it is,

but it's gonna be huge.

The people from

olive garden came by.

They offered me four mil for the

building and the restaurant.

Like I'm really gonna sell out.

I said, "not in my f***ing

lifetime," right, Rocco?

We know that, Gino.

Aw, f***.

I wanted to come by

and tell you that

I'm whacking that spic,

Anthony Rodriguez.

World champion or not,

I don't give a f***!

That cocksucker put

his hands on a made man.

Broke my rib.

Yeah, we heard all about your

escapade in front of la Palina.

In fact, there's a video of it

all over the f***in' place.

I think maybe you're in the

wrong business, Dominick.

You should have been an actor.

Seems like you love the attention.

We all make mistakes.

My mistake was believing

a f***ing mutt like you.

Remember when Enzo used

that word to describe you?

Well, he was right!

F***, Enzo!

Hi, Anthony.

Just one minute.

No, Tommy!

- Please, don't.

We known each other

since we were kids, Tommy!

Oh.

That's right,

we did grow up together.

Don't ever show your

face around here again.

- Okay. -As far as

everybody's concerned,

you're dead and buried!

You got that, Matty?

Yeah, Tommy, thank you,

yeah, thank you.

Thank you, Tommy.

I'll call you later, okay?

Okay. Bye, Matty.

So, how is this one?

You know, I actually

like this girl.

I think I'm gonna settle down.

Yeah, okay.

On second thought, nah!

By the way,

how was the interview?

What was it like going back

to the old neighborhood?

Come on, champ.

Tell me what happened.

You're gonna love it.

We couldn't do this in Brooklyn

when we were shooting the movie,

but this is how we really

do it in real life.

Brooklyn style, baby.
