Similar Movies?


What are some similar movies? I am sure there are plenty. I just thought of "Foxes".

"Kids" from 1995 is in the same ballpark at least

check out Suburbia (1983) - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086589/reference

If by "similar" you mean movies that include drug use and sex among young kids, then yes Kids (1995) is rather similar. Also Christiane F (1981) about young German junkies.

If by "similar" you mean movies that include some sort of violent rebellion of kids against parental generation, then If... (1968) comes to mind.

The Outsiders, perhaps? As a matter of fact, many of Matt Dillon's early movies deal with juvenile delinquency and rebellion.

reply

Second on early Matt Dillon. I tend to blur those movies together in my mind because they look so similar & deal with similar themes.

Ladies & Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains.

Kids & Skins were more sleazy than sincere. I get the comparison because neither of those movies shied away from the underside of youth. But Splendor in the Grass, If..., River's Edge, Virgin Suicides & Myth of the American Sleepover were all gritty without being so cheesy.

And (SPOILERS)...

...similar fate for Matt Dillon's characters in both Over the Edge and the Outsiders.

The British TV series "Skins" is like this film, circa 2007.
