Stay Gold
I saw Outsiders in school after reading the classic novel by S.E.Hinton. never in my life have I seen a video that followed the book so closely. The cast was incredible, especially Matt Dillon (Rumble Fish,TEX), Ralph Macchio (Karate Kid, Up the Acdamy, My Cousion Vinny), Emilio Estevez (Young Guns, The Mighty Ducks) and Patrick Swayze (Red Dawn, Youngblood). The story is mainly about Teens growing up in a harsh world. teens who were forced to grow up early and give up there childhood.Teens who don't see any good in the world and lost what staying gold means. The video is pure reality and makes you think about life. I can't say that The Outsiders will leave you feeling good for the rest of the day because of the several deaths that occur during the film. I can, however, say that the movie will open up ypur eyes to the many troubles teens have today and will make you think twice before doing something.

Great Movie
This is a good movie. I read it in school in 7th grade. We watched the movie and I loved it. I am sad that Cherry and Ponyboy never dated. Great movie though.

Very Close To The Novel
The Outsiders was mandatory reading for me 13 *cough* years ago. It wasn't until I was browsing through the video store that I found this movie. I must admit a few of my favorite parts were edited out. *An entire chapter, but hey? It is a movie* Other than that, I found that the movie follows the book quite well. I do reccommend first reading the novel, but if that's not your thing, than the movie is a great adaption.

As for the cast? Can't go wrong with the line up. Tom Cruise (Top Gun, Mission Impossible), Emilio Estevez (Young Guns, Men At Work) C.Thomas Howell, Pratrick Swayze (Road House, Dirty Dancing) Ralph Machio (The Karate Kid) Rob Lowe (St. Elmo's Fire, West Wing)and Matt Dillon (Rumble Fish, Tex) I was a bit dismayed by a review that said it was geared toward girls. Perhaps it was to offset the serious tone and violence? Come now, not many girls like a lot of violence, so why not have some cuties to help? I admit it caught my attention over 10 years ago and I still love the movie along with the book.
