A visually brilliant film about teenage gangs in America's urban wasteland. The leader of a small dying gang, Rusty James, lives in the shadow of the memory of his absent, older brother - The Motorcycle Boy. His mother has left, his father drinks, school has no meaning for him and his relationships are shallow. One of Coppola's two adaptations of S E Hinton novels, 'The Outsiders' being the other. A great performance from Dillon and an awesome soundtrack.

THE DEAD (1987)
CertificationU Our Rating
Not a horror film, but the late John Huston's adaptation of a novella by James Joyce. A comedy-drama set in turn of the century Dublin and detailing the changing fortunes of a married couple. Beautifully capturing the charm and wit of the Irish, this is a fine version, and the last film, from a brilliant director.
