Although this does not follow the book exactly, it does a great job in portraying the major happenings in the book. This movie includes an all-star cast, and is directed by an amazing director. This film is about Pony Boy Curtis, and his on-going battle with poverty, and with the rival Socs, the rich kids from the other side of the tracks. It also includes some interesting characters. Johnny, the son of two deadbeat parents. Dallas "Dally" Winston, the crazy, but lovable, gun-toting hood. Cherry Valance, the pretty Soc, who befriends Pony Boy and Johnny. This movie includes many stars, who are now top-list actors and actresses. This movie keeps you captivated. It climaxes with the rumble scene. Like the movie "Rumble Fish", this movie is based off of an S.E. Hinton book. I also suggest that you read the book, before seeing this movie.

Clint Eastwood did a magnificent job on this motion picture. Not only does it contain great choreography, but a magnificent cast, and a magnificent director. This is number 3 on my all time favorites list, following Giant, and Gettysburg. Though this film may not be your taste, it captures your attention, and it makes the storyline believable. To some this may seem like trash, but to me this is a wonderfully made movie, which I recommend to anybody who wants to see a masterpiece.

I saw this movie on TBN, when they were playing it in honor of Nora Lam, of whom this movie is about. I totally agree with the message of this movie, because it gives hope to Christians who feel pressured by society, and it also shows Christians in America, that they should be thankful for the religious freedoms our government allows.
