if he gets killed or something, you just bury him. no sweat.
will you come with me to get some popcorn?
i couldn't ever cut anyone.
it just didn't seem right to me.
i'm glad he doesn't know us.
let's walk to the park and back, then maybe i'll be cooled off enough to go home.
he didn't use to be like that.
you don't believe in playing rough or anything, do you?
baby, you know we don't get drunk very often..
it wasn't just that they had beaten him half to death, he could take that.
i'll bet you watch sunsets, too.
if i had worries like that i'd consider myself lucky.
you haven't even got a coat on.
don't talk. you're gonna be okay.
when you're a gang, you stick up for the members.
you don't ever think, not at home or anywhere when it counts.
boy, she was good-looking.
it took a lot to make him cry.
sometimes we get along okay, then all of a sudden he blows up on me
you keep your trap shut! i'm sick and tired of hearin' you stick up for him.
i'm walkin' over to the nightly double tomorrow night. anybody want to come and hunt some action?
i'll bet he's jumped a few people.
the only things i was passing anyway were auto mechanics and gym.
gonna go play a little snooker and hunt up a poker game.
he gets drunk on just plain living.
not all of us are like that.
that's an original and lovely name.
it's not just money. part of it is, but not all.
it seems to run in this family.
we're almost as close as brothers.
nobody was ever going to beat him like that again.
he would carry that scar all his life.
we're always going and going and going, and never asking where.
that's probably why we take turns getting our names in the paper.
i was wishing i looked like paul newman.
i didn't like him, but he was smart and you had to respect him.
you didn't act like it was an invitation to make out for the night.
you're gonna put me to sleep.
he would kill the next person who jumped him.
it seems funny to me that he should look just exactly like my father and act exactly the opposite from him.
we used to get along okay, before mom and dad died. now he just can't stand me.
i told you he don't mean half of what he says..
i couldn't take him hollering at me and hitting me too.
we couldn't get along without you, so you can just shut up!
i like to watch movies undisturbed so i can get into them and live them with the actors.
you in love? what's it like?
i'll find out one of these days.
why did the socs hate us so much?
he'd leave you alone if he knew you.
maybe the two different worlds we lived in weren't so different.
there isn't much else we can do.
i reckon we're wilder, too.
i think i'll stay all night out here.
fiery, huh? well, that's the way i like 'em."
guess what i've been in for?
most of my neighborhood rarely bothers to get a haircut.
you must think at school, with all those good grades you bring home, and you've always got your nose in a book.
i look better with long hair.
i hate most guys that have green eyes.
that didn't make me feel so hot.
don't ask me why. i don't know why.
leave my kid brother alone, you hear?
you don't look old enough to be going to high school.
we couldn't let our parents see us with you all.
where in the almighty universe were you?
i walk in that house, and nobody says anything. i walk out, and nobody says anything.
next time get one of us to go with you.
i thought i was the only person in the world that did.
i think you're the first person i've ever really gotten through to.
that little broad was two-timin' me again while i was in jail.
when i want my kid brother to tell me what to do with my other kid brother, i'll ask you.
my father was never rough with anyone without meaning to be.
i wondered foolishly if i would suffocate before they did anything.
man, that was a tuff car. mustangs are tuff.
wish it was the other way around.
i don't really think a beer blast on the river bottom is super-cool, but i'll rave about one to a girl-friend just to be saying something.
a fair fight isn't rough.
they didn't hurt you too bad, did they?
if you did have to go by yourself, you should have carried a blade.
come on, we're running away.
you'd better leave us alone, or i'll call the cops.
do you ever use your head for common sense?
you want to know something? things are rough all over.
he'll probably find the fight.
i'll tell you something, and it may come as a surprise. we have troubles you've never even heard of.
he's tough, but he's a cool old guy.
it seems like there's gotta be someplace without greasers or socs, with just people. plain ordinary people.
it's not my idea of a good time to sit in a drive-in and watch people get drunk.
what's to talk about? he's big and handsome and likes to play football.
it ain't the same as having your own folks care about you.
man, your brother is one doll. i might have guessed you were brothers. you look alike.
we're careful not to get caught when we can't.
just don't forget that some of us watch the sunset too.
you're more emotional. we're sophisticated.
nice cut, too. makes you look tough.
you got cut up a little, huh?
you ought to see my record sometime, baby.
well, those were two good-lookin' girls if i ever saw any.
you're a nice boy and everything..
you're crazy, out of your mind.
_____ would kill me if i got into trouble with the police.
where the heck have you been? do you know what time it is?
you're a cheerleader. we go to the same school.
i'm working tomorrow night.
he liked fights, blondes, and for some unfathomable reason, school.
shut up talkin' like that.
it ain't fair that we have all the rough breaks!
why don't you be nice and leave us alone?
if i see you in the hall at school or someplace and don't say hi, well, it's not personal or anything.
he would be real handsome if his eyes weren't so cold.
they ain't gonna hurt you no more.
you've seen too much to be innocent.
what were you doin', walkin' by your lonesome?
he got spotted, too, and that was his fault.
if you don't think that hurts, you're crazy.
i hope he don't get jailed again. he just got out.
you must make such interestin' conversation.
i was plannin' on getting boozed up tomorrow night
he's just got more worries than somebody his age ought to.
i don't know which way's the best.
i wouldn't drink it if i was starving in the desert.
i think they were still half-scared of us.
what's a nice, smart kid like you running around with trash like that for?
he's really proud of you 'cause you're so brainy.
when you grow up in a tight-knit neighborhood like ours you get to know each other real well.
if he had been carrying a blade it would have been a good excuse to cut him to ribbons.
i must have been outa my mind to ask for it.
you can't win against them no matter how hard you try.
that's no reason to go walking the streets with these bums.
things gotta get better, they couldn't get worse.
we still hang around rodeos a lot.
nice-lookin' bruise you got there, kid.
he can get drunk in a drag race or dancing without ever getting near alcohol.
she looked real good in yellow.
i never told anyone that.
did they pull a blade on you?
i thought he might be dead; surely nobody could be beaten like that and live.
he looks tough and i don't.
it's a shame you can't ride bull half as good as you can talk it.
too many things could happen while you're drunk.
take your feet off my chair and shut your trap.
nobody in our gang digs movies and books the way i do.
sometimes i just don't use my head.
you heard me. leave her alone.
we're gonna cut all that long greasy hair off.
i don't care too much for girls yet.
greasers can't walk alone too much or they'll get jumped.
i didn't know you were out of the cooler yet.
i'd beat the tar out of you.
it's two in the morning, kiddo. another hour and i would have had the police out after you.
i have to be content with what i have.
he doesn't understand anything that is not plain hard fact.
dingo is a pretty rough hangout; there's always a fight going on there and once a girl got shot.
i don't know why i handed you that busted bottle, you'd never use it.
i bet he wishes he could stick me in a home somewhere, and he'd do it, too.
he wasn't ever going to hit me again
he would have run away a million times if we hadn't been there.
you're bleedin' like a stuck pig.
we all know you ain't wanted at home, either.
there just isn't a whole lot you can say while waiting to get mugged, so i kept my mouth shut.
how come you dropped out?
it seems like we're always searching for something to satisfy us, and never finding it.
i wanted to have another smoke and to watch the stars.
oh, my, my.. you've got me scared to death.
in our neighborhood it's rare to find a kid who doesn't drink once in a while.
we're gonna do you a favor, greaser.
how'd you like that haircut to begin just below the chin?
there's nothing wrong with throwing a few punches.
maybe they won't see us. act normal.
did you ever hear of having more than you wanted? so that you couldn't want anything else and then started looking for something else to want?
i think i like it better when the old man's hittin' me, at least then i know he knows who i am.
my dad was an original person.
you greasers have a different set of values.
i've seen you around rodeos.
i can't stand fights.. i can't stand them.
i don't like to talk about it either.
i didn't mean to! i didn't think! i forgot! that's all i hear out of you! can't you think of anything?
i told you, i'm never going out with you while you're drinking, and i mean it.
i'm just a little spooked, that's all.
i can't take much more, i'll kill myself or something.
they were the only kind of girls that would look at us.
when i stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, i had only two things on my mind.
i got put up a year in grade school.
i hate to tell people my name for the first time.
are you going to start in on us?
i guess my own looks aren't so bad.
i thought maybe it was money that separated us.
you're scarin' me. what happened?
thanks. he had me scared to death.
they're gone now. it's okay.
you know, sometimes i'll catch myself talking to a girl-friend, and realize i don't mean half of what i'm saying.
what on earth is the matter with you?
after you wash your mouth and learn to talk and act decent, i might cool off, too.
he might get beat up, he might not.
the chips are always down when it's our turn, but that's the way things are. like it or lump it.
how come we don't see your brother at school?
if you get cold or something come on over to our house.
shut him up, for pete's sake, shut him up!
