"Yeah, you did a good thing for a bad man" ....

When it comes to being categorized in a group there are billions that you can belong to. Groups are what make people who they are and what they become. In the movie A Bronx Tale that we are watching in class has a boy, Collogero, who is part of many different groups. Some of the groups he is a part of are the italians, family, Sonny's gang and friends. If I were to put him into a master group he would be with Sonny because Sonny has changed him into someone that dresses more of the italian role, smoking, getting into the bar fight and hanging out with the same kind of people, even the way he talks. His master status would be student. I think this because he looks up to Sonny and asks for his advice and opinion and learns from what Sonny has told him. I have him with Sonny instead of his family because if he were to be with his family he wouldn't dress like he does and he wouldn't be hanging out in the bar. I don't think his status changes throughout the movie because he is always with Sonny and learns from him. In a way I think his morals change because he used to be a bit racist but he ends up liking someone that is black and that no one would approve of. People's master status usually changes so don't be surprised if yours changes in a couple years.
