Movie · Drama

In the Bronx in the early sixties all that mattered was the name on your jacket. The Wanderers led by heart throb, Richie (Ken Wahl - TV's Wiseguy), are just one of the gangs fighting for turf in this darkly comic re-imagining of the golden age of American innocence. Love, loyalty and pretty girls keep The Wanderers busy while they fend off The Baldies, The Duckie Boys and The Del Roys - and struggle to keep their crew together...no matter what. A cult classic directed by Academy Award (R) nominee Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff, The Unbearable Lightness of Being), The Wanderers features a superb soundtrack full of sixties rock 'n' roll hits.
