In the classic novel 'The Outsiders' by S. E. Hinton, three main characters meet a tragic end. They are: Johnny, Dally, and Bob. Johnny Cade dies at 16, but not before he has already made a name for himself as one of the most tragic figures in Hinton 's story. With severe burns and a back broken in three places, Johnny's death is one of the most piercing images in S. E. Hinton 's novel. These wounds are inflicted when he and his pal Ponyboy Curtis dash into a burning church in order to save some trapped children. Although they come through with the kids alive, Johnny is hurt too badly and eventually dies in hospital as a direct result of that injury. His death is particularly significant from the viewpoint of the story because he's an outstanding example of all that we mean by good character. Even at his young age he was always there to help out whichever way he could for other people. Dally Winston, another greaser, is so distraught by Johnny's death that he breaks down. He robs a grocery store and deliberately starts a confrontation with the cops, fully aware that it will end in his own death. Brandishing an empty gun frantically at the police, he is shot dead. His death is a tragic moment in the book, representing as it does the frustration and despair felt by some young people in their existence. Bob Sheldon, a Soc (short for "Socials," the rich kids in the story), is Johnny's killer. Unlike Johnny or Dally, Bob is presented as nothing but an insufferably violent bully who constantly picks on the Greasers. One night Bob and a bunch of Socs pick on Ponyboy and Johnny in a park. During the brawl, Bob drowns Ponyboy in a fountain. To save his buddy Johnny stabs Bob, whom he kills. Bob's death is a turning point in the story, marking an intensification of the enmity between the Greasers and the Socs.

You'll find 'The Outsiders' on Hulu rather than on Netflix. An adaptation that skillfully captures the essence of the novel, it's a gem worth treasuring. Its portrayal of a tight-knit gang of rebellious youths navigating life in a ravaged city never fails to tug at my heartstrings. There's a certain rawness and authenticity to it that makes it an engaging watch. If you love TV that offers thought-provoking narratives infused with a touch of adolescent rebellion, this one's a winner! Ah,'The Outsiders', such a classic piece of youth-oriented drama. Sadly, it's not on Netflix, it's currently available for streaming on Hulu. That's the thing with these streaming platforms, they're always rotating their selections and keeping us on our toes! Nevertheless, 'The Outsiders' is a show that's undoubtedly worth the watch, so maybe it's time for a Hulu subscription?

There's a cool feel of nostalgia when I sink into a story like 'The Outsiders'. It's based on the setting of Tulsa, Oklahoma, right in the heartland of the USA. It's not a glitzy big city scenery instead, it has a real pulse and beat in its suburban streets and alleys. The very essence of these turf wars and class struggles that confront the characters throughout the book capture its core.
