The Outsiders is a great book and a good movie. I honestly think that the only bad part of the movie is the very end where Johnny Cake and Dally die and the next day Pony Boy isn't crying or anything. They don't shownany emotion whatsoever whenever there is an issue. The only times are at the beginning: one being where Johnny doesn't want to go home so him and Pony go to The Lot and fall asleep and when Pony finally get home and Darry hits him. The second time was when Johnny Killed a Soc. Honestly I think if Fred Roos and Gray Fredrickson would have added some ore emotion and created a better ending then it would have been beyond amazing.
