I liked this one.  It is a true (it started out as a true story anyway) story
written by a teenager about his experiences growing up as a greaser with his
greaser friends.  The antagonists are the soc'es (society teenagers from the
correct side of town).

The newspaper ads portray this as a kind of "gang" movie, but any "gang" war
stuff is minimal and certainly secondary to the main jist of the movie.
The Outsiders deals with some kids trying to grow up in a confusing world
and how they handle it.  (Men:  take a date and wear a shirt with asorbant
shoulders.  My bad luck was to see this one with four of my housemates. sigh.)

Frank Coppola produced this one and it shows.  Don't miss the beginning.
A MUST SEE.
