Taglines
----------
It's 1963. Meet The Wanderers... They were the hottest guys in town.

It was The Wanderers against the world... and the world never had a chance!


PLOT
------
Set against the urban jungle of 1963 New York's gangland subculture, this coming of age teenage movie is set
around the Italian gang the Wanderers. Slight comedy, slight High School angst and every bit entertaining
with its classic 1950's Rock n' Roll soundtrack such as "Walk Like a Man", "Big Girls Don't Cry" by The Four
Seasons and "My Boyfriend's Back" by The Angels. Focusing around a football game where the different gangs
play with and against each other, then at its grand finale, come together in a mass of union to defend their
honour and their turf. Nostalgic stuff and above all a Rock n' Roll retrospective on a grand musical era.

Trivia
-------
The gangs whose names are introduced early in the film (including The Wanderers) were based on real street
gangs in the New York City area. However, they did not all exist at the same point in time. Many of the
Wanderers did actually belong to a local football team, named "The Stingers".

The "elbow-tit" scene, where Ken Wahl first meets Karen Allen, was shot on Lydig Avenue, one block south of
Pelham Parkway, outside of the actual Wanderers' turf, which ranged from Allerton to Burke Avenues.

The Ducky Boys, an actual Bronx gang that was portrayed in the movie, continued in existence through the
1970s. Though portrayed in the movie and Richard Price novel as "killers", neighborhood residents recall
the gang as annoying rather than criminal.

The movie playing on the television at the beginning of the movie is The Three Stooges in Orbit (1962)


Memorable Quotes
----------------------
[Richie and Despi are on her couch, where he's trying to get her to have sex]

Despie Galasso:
Please, Richie, let me do it with my hand.

Richie:
No! *I* can do it with my hand!
