The tension between two groups: The Greasers and The Socials "Socs" puts Ponyboy Curtis (Howell) and his best friend Johnny Cade (Macchio) in a bad spot. One night at the movies, Ponyboy and Johnny fall in love with Sherri "Cherry" Valance (Lane) and Marcia (Meyrink) once they get Dally Winston (Dillon), the toughest and meanest of the Greasers to stop attempting to "score" Cherry and Marcia. What Johnny and Ponyboy don't know is that Cherry and Marcia are girls for the snobbish, popular, and rich group, the Socs. Once Johnny kills Bob Sheldon (Garrett), the toughest and meanest member of the Socs, this begins as the Socs demand a rumble against the Greasers.
It was also made into a great movie!

The book is about the social differences between 2 groups of kids who are in vastly different socio-economic classes (one group is rich, the other is poor), and the lengths people go to to keep the groups separate. Its a great book, and a short one. Read it, or check out the movie that was made about 20 some odd years ago, with Ralph Maccio and Matt Dillon
