The Warriors
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 theyre after the Warriors - a street gang blamed unfairly for a rival gang leaders 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, seeking to survive in the urban jungle and to learn the meaning of loyalty. This intense and stylised film is a dazzling achievement for cinematographer Andrew Lazlo.
