CM's DVD joint o' the week

The Wanderers, ($14.99 on amazon) is a movie with something for everyone. Italian, Black, Asian and Irish gangs, a big football game, and the world famous "elbow tit". The scene where Richie (Ken Wahl) is walking through the alley Italian style (i.e. with his ass cranked up) and whistling for the other Wanderers to come out for a stroll is great. The classroom scene where the teacher asks for the racial breakdown and Clinton (Michael Wright) doesn't get up when the teacher asks for the blacks with his reason being "I'm an Eskimo", is genius. Set in 1963, made in 1979, The Wanderers is one of my all time favorite movies ever.

I think the class room scene is pure genius. 1 Jew, 1 Eskimo, 15 Blacks, and 18 Italians. That's diversity.

The Bandito's and other South Texas latin gangs would have ran roughshod over those Italian gangs. Great movie though, even without Latin representation.
