"...I think the most unusual thing about the film was the fact that it didn't present the gang and gang structure as a social problem... This was a movie that accepted their values and essentially understood that a street gang was a defensive organization rather than an offensive one. It didn't preach to them about middle-class values. And I think that's what made the movie unique."
