#Aristotle Torres

[tinyreviews]

Reminds me of A Bronx Tale, with the two mentor figures. This is so good. A human, coming of age story. Close to a Must Watch.

Story Ave is a 2023 American drama film directed by Aristotle Torres from a script by Torres and Bonsu Thompson, produced by Torres and Jamie Foxx, and starring Asante Blackk, Luis Guzmán, Melvin Gregg and Alex R. Hibbert. It is based on Torres' 2018 short film of the same name, which in turn was based on a true story.
