I finally saw the movie of Rumble Fish, which I read the novel of for the second time this past summer. It was great! It might be my favorite SE Hinton novel turned book.
Wish they'd have made a colorized version of it, but that would have destroyed one of the fundamental aspects of the film, which was the sparing use of color to point up very specific aspects of Rusty-James's and the Motorcycle Boy's lives - remember that the M.B. appears to be totally color-blind, and Rusty-James suffers from this after a head injury as well.

I actually was surprised to see it on tv a week or so ago.
