What happens after certain scene?


If someone could please sum up the ending? After King meets Little J under the bridge. The DVD skipped and wouldn't play after that. Thanks, and much appreciated.

I don't know if you're still looking for this, but here's a summary of the ending:

King and his friends wait a while for Sean Astin, but he never shows because he's OD'ed. They decide to get on a bus and just take off somewhere - meanwhile, the police catch up with James LeGros and question him about Tommy Ray's shooting, and after they pressure him he tells them where to find King.

They catch up with King and Little J outside the bus and Little J pulls his gun on them. As the cops shoot, King pushes J aside and takes the bullets, then falls to the pavement, dead. At the end, Little J is being released from jail and Heather is there to take charge of him - she's filled King's role.

Those are the major points, but I still recommend getting another copy of the DVD and actually watching it - most of this part is silent action set to song and plays out really powerfully.

What about the nine kids I DIDN'T lose this week?"

Oh, boy! I am really late in replying but yes, the end of the movie so powerful you have to keep watching it. It's so incredibly sad, too. King basically sacrificed himself for Little J (who I thought was horribly STUPID at the end.)

Watch it. Love it!
