[@ashleymorgan9126]

I have to say the director has a pretty good taste for actors ;-)

[@radcece4451]

yes. yes he did.

[@meghnasaha4349]

Oh yeah he got the casting for this and the godfather spot on

[@sighum9325]

Ashley Morgan yes he did

[@MaiNguyen-fi4yd]

I think he picked the teenage heartthrobs of the 80s’ 😂😂😂

[@Romy---]

Mai Nguyen This was in 1982 though :p

Heaven is a dirt nap true, it knowing this shitty-ass generation, it probably will be

[@AB-sr4xd]

Heaven is a dirt nap Yes this movie should not end up like Diary of a Wimpy Kid

[@UkeleleplayinQUESTIE]

They remade it as a tv series in the 90's; and it made me okay with how long it took DiCaprio to get an Oscar.

[@jiggles_piggles2693]

Noooooo it should definitely be remade! Who cares if it’s not the “classic”? The more outsiders the better I always say! Who cares if it sucks because it’s not the original? It would still be fun to make and they’ll simply be another movie so people can watch two! I wanna live in a world with as much outsiders stuff as possible!

[@breadddie]

Omg Matt seemed so nervous "I guess I'll, ill, I'll read Dallas I guess um." I'm deceased

I find it funny that for so long everyone was like "the casting couch is just a myth" and now they're like "every movie ever made utilized the casting couch"! Talk about going from one extreme to the other!

Matt Dillon is still pretty hot, I mean for some reason I was so interested in the first season of Wayward Pines, that guy sure looks good in a suit. Tom Cruise and Rob Lowe also look great still.

Well just to clarify its not that he is aging , hes only like 30 something here and I don't think he looks ugly here in 2003 C . Thomas Howell got appendicitis and had to have three feet of intestine removed from himself that is why he looks the way he does.

[@sodapop8134]

[@glurpbot8048]

First found out about the Outsiders in 8th grade when my English teacher forced us to read it and jot down notes about the characters and their eye colors. Although I hated taking the notes I really did enjoy the book and I was even more excited about watching the movie in class. Now thanks to my 8th grade ELA teacher I'm obsessed.

[@litgal783]

The casting is amazing! Hearing all the famous names that didn’t make the cut is legendary. I’m reading this with my class, as I do every year and they love it! I show clips from the movie as we go along bc it’s THE best book to movie ever. I still have students 20 years later finding me in Facebook and such telling me to Stay Gold and I’m honored to get to read this 7 times a day for over 20 years. It’s timeless and when kids tell me they hate to read, this is my go to book and the kids start reading and I know I created lifelong readers over the years, all thanks to SE Hinton.

[@gemmaleverton772]

No one could play Dally like Matt but Tom Cruise's audition was pretty good

[@billofrightsamend4]

Yes, he's so natural. He was so very good in "Born on the 4th of July". People were sobbing in the theater. When you have people choking back tears, that is talent. I don't agree with his personal beliefs, but he's a good actor.

[@davidpanetta6400]

Tom Cruise had a small part that had nothing to do with the success of this movie. The story centered around PonyBoy, Johnny and Dallas. The secondary characters were Cherry Valance and Daryl who was played by a very underrated actor named Patrick Swayze. All the other famous actors had minor roles.

[@Trenex2gomez]

Aww, I didn't know Anthony M. Hall Auditioned! I think he would be a good "Ponyboy" maybe a tiny bit younger than he was in Weird Science.. But come on, Who can replace Tommy.. I'm glad he was in WS though, Great actor The roll fit him perfect (:
