Poster for The Outsiders

They grew up on the outside of society. They weren't looking for a fight. They were looking to belong.

When two poor Greasers, Johnny and Ponyboy, are assaulted by a vicious gang, the Socs, and Johnny kills one of the attackers, tension begins to mount between the two rival gangs, setting off a turbulent chain of events.
