The Deuce thaws your (Robert) Frost-ed hearts and gives YOU something golden to live for again this New Year – when we whisk you away to Times Square’s Lyric Theatre circa 1983 for Francis Ford Coppola’s epic, poetic, eccentric pageant of emotionalism: THE OUTSIDERS!! S.E. Hinton’s turgid tale of troubled Tulsa teens wrought for the CinemaScopic screen with dizzyingly delirious directorial style into a potboiling pulpy stew teeming with romantical rapture!! Ponyboy! Two-Bit! Cherry! Sodapop! Derry and Dally!
A bevy of beautiful youth caught in a classic battle between “Greasers” and “Socs”… – rumbling and bumbling… and blubbering their sweet lil hearts out! A cinematic ecstasy of youthful energy and charisma! There’s still a lot of good in the world… and The Deuce is gonna keep it that way… Dig that sunset, man…
