Some of the similarities was that the movie had some of the same exact lines from the book such as, “I got a good chance of bein’ let off easy” (Hinton 87). Parts of the movie were exactly like the book. Including the time when Pony, Johnny, and Dally went to Dairy Queen and when Johnny got the food for them when They were at the church (Hinton 87-88). Another similarity is when both Ponyboy and Johnny watch the sunrise and Pony says out loud the poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay” (Coppola, The Outsiders). Some differences are that when they both start. The movie starts where they meet at the store and the book starts where Ponyboy gets beat up after walking out of the movie theaters and toward home. There was another time when the group is doing in the air somersaults before the big rumble and in the book all of them do that and in the movie only two of the characters did in the air somersaults and other
