Director: Frances Ford Coppola Rated: R Runtime: 95 minutes
Cast: Matt Dillon, Mickey Rourke, Diane Lane

In this deeply personal tale of estrangement and reconciliation between two rebellious brothers, set in a dreamlike and timeless Tulsa, Coppola gives mythic dimensions to intimate, painful emotions.

Disaffected and restless, Rusty James (Dillon) is spoiling for a fight. Abandoned by his mother and living with his alcoholic father (Dennis Hopper), he hangs out with his girlfriend, Patty (Lane), and his similarly aimless friends Midget (Larry Fishburne), Smokey (Nicolas Cage) and B.J. Jackson (Christopher Penn). When his brother, the Motorcycle Boy (Rourke), returns to town, Rusty is drawn into one more gang fight and the events that follow begin to change his life.
