Movie seems cool, but it's so hard not seeing Matt and Diane as Dally and Cherry. And it really sucks because I fell in love with Matt portraying Dally, but now I see my babe kissing all over the broad that threw coke on him?! WHY DOES COPPOLA HATE ME??! WOULD IT HAVE KILLED HIM TO CHOOSE DIFFERENT ACTORS? AGH - @Monday, August 31, 2015 11:27 PM

Big fan of Rumble Fish and The Outsiders, but it's annoying me seeing all the kids in the comments calling Matt and Diane's characters in RF Dally and Cherry. Completely different movie not at all related to the classic Outsiders. Both are wonderful, but if you're looking for a part two TO, you won't find it here. - @Wednesday, December 10, 2014 10:32 PM

It's weird. I don't like Matt and Diane dating in a movie because I picture as Dally and Cherry.,,and I was not -still not to be honest- a supporter of Dally and Cherry. It's hard not to typecast them as Dally and Cherry. - @Saturday, July 12, 2014 8:05 PM

Matt, Emilio, and Diane have been in other SE Hinton films based on her novels. Matt was in The Outsiders as Dally, Rumble Fish as Rusty, and Tex as Tex. Emilio was in the Outsiders as Two-Bit, That Was Then..This Is Now as Mark, Tex as Johnny Collins. Diane was Cherry in the Outsiders and Patty in Rumble Fish. - @Saturday, July 12, 2014 7:57 PM

I grew up in Tulsa and was in 8th/9th grade when this was being filmed. They had an open casting call for extras, but I was too young at the time. Most of the film was shot in north and west Tulsa near downtown where there were lots of buildings from the 1920's through 50's still occupied by stores and businesses. It gave the movie a real authentic feel. - @Thursday, April 3, 2014 5:58 PM

I don't remember the exact line but it went something like. "My father told me that some people are just born in the wrong time. Like the motorcycle boy, he would've made a good night in Medeival Times. Tough, and didn't show any fear." I live by that line. - @Monday, December 30, 2013 7:36 AM
