This was such a great movie. I watched it again three weeks ago. I shared a story with my wife about this movie. The scene in the bowling alley was one of my favorites. I used to bowl league in that alley when I was younger. That bowling alley was in Queens, NY. I don't know if it's still there? I moved out of Queens in 1990. Good times and a good movie!
This movie is one of my favorites. One of the most memorable moments ever in a movie, was the scene that the people heard the news that JFK died. Rain, everyone's crying, Stand by me/Ben E. King playing, the chapel. Goosebumps.
Great cast of then unknown young actors. Surprised that a lot more of the movie's cast members didn't go on to have bigger careers. Also, a great soundtrack to accompany Phillip Kaufman's excellent adaptation of Richard Price's semi-autobiographical novel by the same title. I highly recommend seeing "The Wanderers" at least once while you're still alive, you won't be disappointed.
nterestingly, I have never seen the Movie. I will probably try to watch it. It was originally a book by Richard Price who ended up becoming a Screen Writer and wrote many other Novels as well. Blood Brothers was very similar and also written by Richard Price.
I have a copy of The Wanderers. It's one of my favorite movies. I watch it every couple months. The movie took place at a time that was just before me.

@@57highland- I have never seen the Film, but I should try to watch it. I read the book a number of years back in the 20th Century Century more like the 1970's. He taught Creatvie Writing in College based up The two books he wrote at the time- Blood Brothers and the WAnderes. He leftg onece he started becoming a big Novelist and Screen Writer. I read the Novel in the 1970's- I don't remember the Novel being about Civil Rights and Black People.
@@HoldenNY22 Well, for example, in the movie Despi is Richie's girlfriend. In the book, it's Buddy who's her boyfriend and Buddy who gets her pregnant. And Chubby Galasso is Despi's father. In the book her father is "Al Carabella." In the movie, Turkey is the person who ends up getting killed by the Ducky Boys. In the book it's "Sloop", one of the Baldies, and Turkey isn't even in the Wanderers. He's like a geeky outsider who's allowed to come to Wanderers parties. And Perry and Joey go to California when they leave the Bronx. In the book, they go to Boston and join the Merchant Marine. Those are some of the differences.
For me, this is and always will be the ultimate teen movie. At the time, there were a few others that came close, but this is the one. Thanks to cast and crew for making it. Dont F..k with the Wongs!
Sa fi actor nu-i așa ușor e munca grea și asta Dumnezeu să-i odihnească în pace pe toți actori ce au decedat sa le fie țărâna ușoară și sănătate celor ce mai trăiesc încă

Greetings from Glasgow. I still have an old VHS with original cover of this movie. Have it on dvd too. Picked up a long out of print lp of the soundtrack, with great cover shots from the movie. The soundtrack was subsequently reissued, titled : Jukebox Classics, but dropped the Wanderers connection / imagine on the LP sleeve. El
What, y'all couldn't find a human to narrate this?? Total FAIL for using a damn fake computer-generated voice. WHY??? And the "music" soundtrack soundslike sonething from a 3-year olds wind-up musib box. FAIL!! So unnecessary.
The wanderers then and now cast excellent movie rip dolph sweet rip terror and rip peewee
Leave the kid alone,😂😊 definitely one of my favourite movies of all time

Hello friend love your content 👍
Wow....Ken Wahl was 22 in 1979 and now he's 40? Who the hell did the math on this? Nearly every age is incorrect.
No it's true because he went through a time warp.
I was thinking, he isn't 66 in that photo
Theres always a debate on which is better "The Wanderers" or "The Warriors" i always say The Wanderers
Both iconic films ! I've watched warriors more times than wanders !
Great cast of then unknown young actors. Surprised that a lot more of the movie's cast members didn't go on to have bigger careers.

Karen Allen ("Nina") had the best career.
Saw it on HBO when I was 11 in 1979, was my favorite movie as a kid. Still great to watch!
Yes, I agree
I 'm huge fan of Ken Sir .
He is my most fav hero❤
From Pakistan
One of the greatest films ever created.
And a fantastic soundtrack...👍

You forgot the "Wongs"
Don't fuck with the wongs
Ken Wahl is supposed to be 62 in 2023. Not 40 as shown.
There's many. Incorrect age.
Probably the only 'recent' photo of Ken Wahl the poster could find. There's not many (if any) of Ken Wahl in later years, as the guy is now a total recluse. He retired from acting in 1996.
I was 🤔 something was off about that 😂
Incredible, almost half a century has passed and they were teenagers
Alot of them were men back then
that was a brilliant video. NEW SUBSCRIBER
This was so much better than the Warriors
The wanderers then and now cast rip linda manz 1961 -2020 who played peewee . And rip erland van lidth 1953-1987 who played terror 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻excellent soundtrack to the wanderers
Pretty sure Ken Wahl is older than 40 . Good video though pretty good movie
Emilio was a key character in this movie and in the climactic fight, how can you leave out an important character like that?
Bravo
love it greets holland😍
Danke. 5 ⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🎥 KINO✌️😄👍
This is Ken Wahl before his neck injury!!!!!
The best movie ever made,great great
Wow!! Richard Price (bowling bankroller) WROTE the Wanderers!! I never knew that he had a small role in the film!😃
Have you read "The Wanderers"? Good book but a lot different from the film.

The warriors and the wanderers came out the same year. I always preferred The wanderers

The Wanders is a drama film, which was directed by Philip Kaufman and starred Ken Wahl, John Friedrich, among others. May God bless them.
Love this film,watched again last night
Ken wahl...a pesar de los años sigue siendo guapo ❤
Italians wanderes..... Best films... Top...
Brilliant movie ❤️ sad some have died now 😢🙏❤️🎵🎶🎵
A lot of good actors in this movie.
Hollywood have no mercy!

Great cast. The young actors were great but the older cast even greater... Val Avery

Romania?
The Wanderers was released in 1979, 44 years ago from 2023 so Ken Wahl is older than 40. :-)
Ken Whal is 66 years old in 2023.
Born February 14, 1957.

This is sooo a vibe, memories of when i was a kid.. use to walk around saying 'leave the kid alone' or dont fuck with the wongs 😂😮
me and my friends did the exact same thing especially leave the kids alone
ケン・ウォールが今も若すぎる
CHRIST! I can't believe how many died in 2023!
I remember Toni Kalem was also Gianelli in Pvt. Benjamin and Angie Bonpensiero in The Sopranos.
i noticed especially in the last videos here that the obese actors are very prone for heart disease and dying at a young age..john candy, blues brother(s), the big guy here..second big factor are drugs must be a very hard business as a famous actor apparently 🙄🙄
Imagine a double bill of the Warriors and the Wanderers, I saw them together at the Rio Theater in Santa Cruz.
Interesting. Ken Wahl played in the series "Wiseguy". Cool 😎 show but didn't run very long. I wonder why?
I haven’t seen this on tv in 35 years. If I do I’m recording it

Karen Allen always had that KILLER smile! She was a cutie for sure.
that is NOT ken is 2023......you can NOT find a current day picture of ken.....he is an extremely private person.
Best greaser movie ever
The warriors and the wanderers the best gang films and don't forget the original Assault on precinct 13 .Nothing to touch em
Didn't know that was Ken Foree as the black gangster.
WOW! PUTTING A PICTURE OF SOMEONE CLEARLY NOT KEN WAHL TO TRICK US INTO CLICKING ON YOUR SITE. YOU ARE MY HERO!
LOL......And he left out the best character.....Joey's father
" I said, leave the kid alone!"
If you know, you know.
As datas não batem com a idade dos atores .
god they’re all so attractive now
Allan bruanstien looks like Martin sheen in this film
My brother wrestled with the guy who played terror in college he said one day he got mad at some guy and chased him through the cafeteria he was so big he was knocking over chairs and tables as he tried to catch the guy throwing stuff around and screaming whoever he was chasing had to be scared
Where are the Wongs?
keeping themselves in the background, waiting....
Who cares they are asian and don't count..
And there’s not one Wong in this.
The actor who played "Teddy Wong", Dion Albanese, never did another acting part and pretty much dropped off the radar.
That's right who cares.
Ken Wahl is 40? No way!
Of course not, The Wanderers came out more than 40yrs ago 😁 think that picture of him was when he was 40.
Alas I am sorry to say that Tony Gainos died in 2024.What a great actor he was.
Ken Wahl is not 40 🤯🥴🙄😆
What about Teddy Wong ?
I am pretty sure everyone who saw this film started a gang, we called ourselves “censored jedis” messed around mostly shoplifting and breakdancing lol
What about Emelio???
LOOKED
Never shown on tv and not on dvd in uk
