  • Today I’m talking about The Outsiders, written by S.E. Hinton in 1967 and the two versions of the 1983 movie adaptation by Francis Ford Coppola, with an all-star cast, including Patrick Swayze, Matt Dillon, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez, and Tom Cruise.
    The story follows 14-year-old Ponyboy Curtis, as he deals with life as a “greaser”, a kid from the wrong side of the tracks. His parents died in a car accident, and he lives with his older brothers, Darry and Sodapop. His group of friends, including Two-Bit, Dally, Steve, and Johnny, are his surrogate family, and through his story, we understand that, regardless of our circumstances, most people are dealing with the same emotional challenges.

    This is my favorite book of all time. And I prefer the full novel addition to the film adaptation. Even Rob Lowe said that it bugged him that his biggest scene was cut out, which was the scene when pony boy realizes Sodapop is the one to bring what's left of their family.

    What makes The Outsiders really impressive is that it was written by a sixteen year old girl. S.E. Hinton was a tomboy and based a lot of the setting and greasers/socs from her own high school. In fact when she published The Outsiders while she was in college, the publisher suggested using her initials to not have male readers know the author’s a girl. However, as a male reader I thought it was strange how Ponyboy would call his brothers handsome. That’s kind of weird.

      tbh I don't think it's weird Ponyboy would call them handsome because Pony has a very soft side and it's his inner dialouge. Maybe it would be weird with another character but not with Pony. and also Pony loves and looks up to Soda a lot and he only sees the good things in him, no surprise he also thinks his brother is so handsome cause he also sees lots of girls fangirl over him.

      @@FeggyMin Ponyboy is embarrassed about Soda being a high school dropout though. Ponyboy pretty much has imposter syndrome I think. I mean, he’s a greaser but he does things a greaser wouldn’t usually do like read and get good grades in school. Cherry even points out that a kid like him shouldn’t be a greaser. I also think Hinton took a little bit of herself when she wrote Ponyboy.

      @@huntercoleman460 i get what you mean! i think deep down Pony doesn't want to be a Greaser or have that Lifestyle. or what HE thinks a "Greaser" is like... the stereotypical in his eyes. I love how all of them are complex characters. on one hand Pony likes his friends but on the other hand he def. wishes that things were different in his life

    I never saw the Full novel movie but I saw the theatrical version, but they both are good, but I didn't care that the theatrical version was missing some parts. So both are like the same, just the full novel movie is longer.

    Wow just found your channel and did not realize there was a second movie for Outsiders. As a 53 year old woman - growing up The Outsiders was my favorite book ever and I remember when the movie was out in theaters. it was the only movie I felt that represented the book perfectly - but I guess I was thinking more how I thought the actors were all cast perfectly. I did not realize as a teenager how so much was cut out of the movie - I am definitely going to have to check out the new version. Thanks for the great video!

    I think Francis Ford Coppola made a mistake in making all the cuts that he did in the theatrical cut, and then when he corrected that mistake he made another big one by messing with the soundtrack. I have never watched a movie and so desperately wanted to change the soundtrack myself so badly. The entire soundtrack to the complete novel version was so atrocious and awful. In some scenes you can’t even hear what the characters are saying.

That soundtrack JOLTS you out of the movie, not just takes you out of it. It’s like he can’t do anything right when it comes to The Outsiders, he always needs to have some way to fuck it up.

      @@strongrex2615 I also feel the movie made Ponyboy less of an interesting character. Since the book is told from his point of view, we see his monologue and how much he looks up to Sodapop and how he has a bit of an artistic streak in him since he can draw and write. Ponyboy in the movie has some of that but not a lot.

    The music in the new version is so off that it takes you away from the drama and intensity. It’s pretty distracting, they should have kept the original music.
