What are 1960 's outsiders? What are 2000 's outsiders? They are both put out of society, but that can 't be it. The outsiders have changed so much, it 's incredible. But, why are insiders afraid of them.
He didn’t care, after finding out that johnny has died he goes crazy and robs a store. As he is running out he gets shot in his lower abdomen but still runs off. He calls Pony, Steve, Two-bit, Darry, and Soda, when they get to the vacant lot where he was surrounded by policemen, he pulled out an unloaded gun, he wanted to die that 's why he did it, he was gunned down by the police. Dally got what he wanted and dying was what he wanted after Johnny died, he died a hoodlum… ‘“Dally didn 't die a hero, he died violent, violent, and desperate. Like we knew he
In the Outsiders, S.E Hinton, it presents the idea that perspectives changes what other people think of you by being yourself and not caring what other people think of you.you should stop worrying about what other people's perspective of you and start being yourselves so people don’t get the wrong image of you. In Chapter 2 when PonyBoy talked to Cherry (who is a socs).Cherry tells PonyBoy that,”it’s not just the money. Part of it, but not all. You greasers have a different set of values.you’re emotional we’re sophisticated.
After Dally's friend Jhonny gets seriously injured and eventually passes away, Dally robs a grocery store and gets shot at a vacant lot by police officers. My claim is that Dally wasn't murdered but killed by intentional or reasonable accusations. First, Dally wanted to get shot after Jhonny’s death because Jhonny is the only person Dally cared about. “And then I knew.
The characters thought that Dally was just really angry at the world, that his robbing of the bank was him attempting to blow off steam, and that his consequential death was all a result of his bad decisions. In reality, Dally had just been told about Johnny's death, and he was heartbroken. The text shows this happening when it says, “Damnit, Johnny…’ he begged, slamming one fist against the wall, hammering it to make it obey his will. ‘Oh, damnit, Johnny, don’t die, please don’t die…’ He suddenly bolted through the door and down the hall”(Hinton 149).
In the story The Outsiders written by S.E Hinton, there are two rival groups/ gangs, the greasers and the Socs. A young boy named Ponyboy explained his journey being a greaser and the sacrifices, consequences, and decisions he had to manage with. This story reminds me of William Shakespeare's story Romeo and Juliet of their similarities which are they gangs, fights, and loyalty and differences that are the wealthiness, behaviors, and between the two books. One of the similarities of the two books is the groups/ gangs, because in Romeo and Juliet there are the Montague and Capulets and in The Outsiders there are the greasers and the Socs. They are both enemies and try to sabotage and fight each other when every they have the chance to.
In the novel, The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton,Poneyboy made a choice that ultimately drove the plot. Poneyboy wanted to walk home alone, and got jumped by the Socs. “ No”, they had me down in a second, they also had my arms and my legs pinned down”,(Hinton 5). One of the Socs was sitting on my chest with his knees on my elbows, and if you don’t think that hurts, you’re crazy”, (Hinton 5). Poneyboy made this choice,because he didn’t want to wait for one of his friends or one of the gang members to drive him home, “ I could have called Darry and he would have come by on his way home and picked me up, or Two-bit Matthews-one of our gang members-would have come to get me in his car if I had asked him, but sometimes I just don’t use my head.
In The Outsiders, Dally experiences the second stage of grief
Dally doesn't go into the church immediately. He follows after Johnny. Dally would risk his life for people that he doesn't know, as he has no connection to them. When we look closer into both situations, there is one equal factor, Johnny. At the end of the novel when Johnny passes, Dally has no will to live.
Our world has many different people with different beliefs, thoughts, and personalities. S.E. Hinton’s book, The Outsiders, shows this. Some characters are Socs and some are Greasers; some are admirable and some are reprehensible. In The Outsiders, the most admirable character is Sodapop. Sodapop is an admirable character because he is filled with positively warm energy that makes people feel good and he is an understanding person.
He seems to have no emotions, and as it said on page , Dally can take any amount of punishment. “ Dally had spent three years on the wild side of New York and had been arrested at the age of ten. He was tougher than the rest of us……..” (Hinton, 10) . “He had quite a reputation.
When you think of family you might think of adults and their children, or kids who lost their parents but are still related to each other. The Outsiders by S.E Hinton tells otherwise. It shows that even if you are not related, you can still be family; you can still have love and affection for each other. In the book, there is a contradiction between the gang’s biological family and their “family”. There is connection shown between the greasers from the Socs in the blue Mustang to Johnny dying in the hospital not wanting to see his mother.
Dally is not strong mentally (when he couldn’t let Johnny go), he really does not do good deeds, and he does not care about any other people than only Johnny, and he’s rude to others and bad at using words. A quotation that supports my statement is, “What for? Get back in here before I beat your head in.” (p.90) This quotation supports my statement because Dally said this to Ponyboy when he hopped off the car and said to see what the deal is when he saw the old church on fire, it proves that Dally does not care about other stuff that does not involve him and that he’s rude to others and using
(1.48) After Johnny died, Dally makes an enormous sacrifice that took away his life. He loved Johnny so much that he couldn't take the fact he was gone. Dally was known to be the most cold-blooded member of the gang but after Johnny's death, he was the one who showed the most affection. Dally wouldn’t have been shot if he didn’t love Johnny so much, and sacrificed himself.
In the novel, “The Outsiders” that was written by S.E Hinton, one of the characters within the book that has changed a lot was Ponyboy Curtis. Ponyboy Curtis’ change was a slow process, but a lot happened to him throughout the novel. He goes through many events at the start, middle and at the end of the novel too. At the start of the novel, Ponyboy was just an innocent and smart kid who lived with the gang known as, “The Greasers”, but by the end of the novel, Ponyboy is a different person compared to how he was in the beginning. The events that took place in the middle of the novel has some key events that make him change his personality and opinion on life, and that the reader learns that his personality and opinion changes because of the dramatic events he goes through like how Johnny Cade and Dallas Winston’s death.
