The Outsiders (1983)

In 1965 Tulsa, Oklahoma, greasers Ponyboy Curtis and his brothers, Darrel (“Darry”), and Sodapop (“Soda”), as well as Johnny, Dallas (“Dally”), “Two-Bit”, and Steve hang out. Their rivals are the socs (short for socials, pronounced soshes), wealthier kids from the other side of town. The Curtis brothers live together, with Darry taking on a parental role because their parents died in an accident.

While Ponyboy is walking home some socs beat him up. Greasers show up and rescue him. One night, Ponyboy, Johnny and Dally go to a drive-in, where Dally tries to hit on “Cherry”. After Dally leaves, Cherry and her friend Marcia invite Ponyboy and Johnny to sit with them. Later, the boys walk the girls home when their boyfriends, Bob and Randy, confront them. Johnny recognizes Bob as a soc who beat him up. The girls defuse the situation by going home with the socs. When Ponyboy arrives home, Darry yells at and hits him, causing Ponyboy to run away. Ponyboy fetches Johnny and goes to a park. They are confronted by Bob and Randy and three other socs, who chase and attack them. They beat up Johnny and try to drown Ponyboy in a fountain. Ponyboy passes out and when he comes to, he sees Johnny holding a blood-stained switchblade and muttering about killing Bob, whose body is nearby while the rest have fled.
