hay greaser one said in an over-friendly voice. We’re gonna do you a favor greaser we’re gonna cut all that long greasy hair off. the outsiders is the story of two rival gangs who have grudges. they seem to be fighting because the socs are selfish and the think they are better because they are richer. this leads to unfortunate occasions for very young people. The Outsiders BY S.E. Hinton was published in the 1960s.

So for them to make death scene up would be hard because they do not have the supplies we have right now. When dally dies the the gunshots were not believable. Because the actor dally was also starting out carrere so dally's death
