THE WARRIORS (1979) [40th
Anniversary]
U.S. | 92 mins | Dir. Jack Hill |
35mm
A battle of gigantic proportions is
looming in the neon underground of New York City. The armies of the night
number 100,000; they outnumber the police 5 to 1; and tonight, they’re after
the Warriors – a street gang blamed unfairly for a rival gang leader’s death.
This contemporary action-adventure story takes place at night, underground, in
the sub-culture of gang warfare that rages from Coney Island to Manhattan to
the Bronx. Members of the Warriors fight for their lives, seek to survive in
the urban jungle and learn the meaning of loyalty.
