My parents tried desperately
to start a family...
:04:06
... but after many
unsuccessful attempts...
:04:09
... they pretty much
gave up on the idea.
:04:12
Get off of me.
:04:14
Then, after what my mother
refers to as...
:04:16
What your father did to me
while I was sleeping.
:04:19
... my sister Anna was born.
Followed by me, Angelo Barberini.
:04:24
I grew up in a quiet, peaceful
neighborhood. But from the inside...
:04:29
- No, you can't play in the park.
- You'll get kidnapped.
:04:32
- No, you can't go swimming.
- You'll drown.
:04:34
No, you can't go eat
at the Bouchards' house.
:04:37
- They're not Italian.
- Their food will kill you.
:04:45
Then there was my Aunt Yolanda.
Always trying to inject life...
:04:48
... into an otherwise
death-at-your-doorstep existence.
:04:53
Hey, Yo. Can you shut it, that music?
:04:57
What she has to be happy about,
I don't know.
:05:00
My sister Anna had her own
special way of calming herself.
:05:03
A tasty little treat called Icesuckle.
:05:06
To this day she denies that she
has an addictive personality.
:05:12
My best friend Nino
was always up to something.
:05:25
Nino and I were inseparable.
:05:30
I enjoyed school. I looked forward
to going every day, until:
:05:35
St. Pius X Comprehensive
High School.
:05:37
Fifteen hundred students,
99.9% Italian...
:05:41
... all looking for someone to pick on.
:05:44
And when I got there,
their quest was over.
:05:51
I could take the humiliation
of being human graffiti...
:05:56
... but when Nino started being
ashamed to be seen with me...
