highly recommended

Director Francis Coppola's adaptation of the popular S.E. Hinton novel about the price of rebellious youth is notable chiefly for the stunning cast of young actors who went on to rich and varied careers. In supporting roles, the film features the likes of Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze, Diane Lane, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez, and Tom Waits, among others. The story centers on two rival gangs in the early 1960s Midwest, and the violent turf wars that escalate and tragically claim young lives. C. Thomas Howell plays the central character who yearns to prove himself and be accepted by his older brothers' gang, while at the same time finding his first love and dreaming of a life beyond his dead end existence. Geared toward the teenage crowd, the film nonetheless features some fine direction from Coppola in a story that evokes memories of the classic coming-of-age films of the 1950s. --Robert Lane

"stay gold, pony boy, stay gold"

This is a movie that will be loved through the generations.

A must get movie if you have read the outsiders book!!!!

outsiders a hit with new generation

Bought this movie after my 10th grader did a book report on the Outsiders. They loved it and had to show all their friends. Took it on vacation and they watched it on the way there, there, and on the way home.

Had to have it

I had seen and read this book 24 years ago and I just had to own it. The story is as true to life for young people today as it was back then. Timeless!!

Great film, terrible music

I can't believe the music is changed in this one. To me, it made the film feel completely different and not in a good way. To anyone that remembers the old version, hearing this new one is very difficult. Since it was a two disc set, I wish the second disc had the new version with new scenes available with the old music. I'll stick with the old one.

I Love Cherry.

The Outsiders is a good film but I've grown sick of it over the years. Matt Dillion, Ralph Macchio, and C. Thomas Howell give the best performances in this all-star cast. I like the story but the look of this film is so dated and washed-out. This is a film every young adult should watch, and hey look for a red-headed Diane Lane who plays the beautiful but stubborn Cherry. Give this film a try sometime.
