Teen melodrama set in 1960s Oklahoma, based on S. E. Hinton's novel about rival gangs of young men from Tulsa's disparate neighborhoods: the upscale Socs and the underprivileged Greasers hate each other with passion, and fight at every opportunity. The plot revolves around budding writer and Greaser Ponyboy (C. Thomas Howell) who falls in love with a popular cheerleader (Diane Lane) from the Socs' side of town, a fight that ends in someone's death, and the rescue of children from a fire by unlikely heroes. Also with Matt Dillon, Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez, Tom Waits . . .
