George and Tony are two good fellas from the mean streets of New York. All they want is to make it to their 21st birthdays, but in their world of prostitutes, junkies and gangs, one wrong move can be their last!
Directed by Joseph Merhi, Emperor of the Bronx leans on a strong ensemble — William Smith, Alex D'Andrea, Adrian Drake — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1990.
