He's going to regret breaking that window for the rest of his useless life as he languishes in Attica. Most people who watch A Bronx Tale find it necessary to smoke pot to overlook Brancato's incredibly bad acting in that flick.

"In other words, his testimony is completely unbelievable." Whoa, thanks for the translation. It was hard to figure out what Lynch was getting at there.

"He's acting on the stand much like he did in the movies." In other words, his testimony is completely unbelievable.

I think he's truly sorry for what he did but I don't know if that's helped others in his predicament. Just a fucked up situation all around.

In the Metro this morning, this jerkoff blamed all of his troubles on being introduced to marijuana on a movie set. Now, I've smoked up for YEARS and it never made me think, "Hmmm. I bet heroin or prescription drugs are just as good or better." Leave it to a loser like Brancato to blame drugs for his own lack of good judgement.

Using crack, he refers to himself as between a rock and a... Is that some sort of pun? What did Baretta teach us? Don't do the crime if you can't do the crime. No no.
