The Margos revisit a special episode dedicated to the cult classic film *The Warriors*, based on Sol Yurick's book. Directed by Walter Hill and released in 1979, the movie was a hit but faced backlash due to real-life gang violence, leading studios to halt its promotion. It became a staple of 1980s television and is now considered a modern classic for its comic book sensibility in depicting urban decay.

Since the blockbuster success of his musical “Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda has been busy: acting, directing, and composing for Disney projects, including the upcoming movie “Mufasa: The Lion King.” But his new project is more personal, and a throwback in the best sense. Working with the playwright Eisa Davis, he has reimagined a movie from his childhood as a concept album. “The Warriors” is a cult classic released in 1979. “The Warriors are a gang from Coney Island, and they have to fight their way from the Bronx all the way back down to Coney Island in the course of the film,” Miranda tells David Remnick. The film reads as a nineteen-seventies period piece, but Miranda and Davis find a classical dimension to it. “The tale is an old tale. Sol Yurick, who wrote the novel the movie is based on, based it on the Anabasis, which is a soldier's account of trying to get back home from war” in ancient Greece. “It's this mythic story. . . . It doesn't get more clear than that as a plotline.” To tell that story in song and rap, Miranda brought together a cast of legends including Lauryn Hill, Nas, Marc Anthony, members of the Wu-Tang Clan, and more. If releasing a concept album, meant to be listened to straight through, seems like a stretch for 2024 audiences, Miranda is unfazed. “What's interesting about “Hamilton” is that no one I talked to thought it was a good idea when I was writing it. But I could see it. And it was the idea that wouldn't leave me alone.”Follow New Yorker Radio Hour Here - https://www.newyorker.com/podcast/the-new-yorker-radio-hour/with-the-warriors-lin-manuel-miranda-takes-on-another-new-york-story Hosted on Acast.

This week we're joined by new Patreon John Malone and he's picked the cult classic from 1979, The Warriors. The Warriors was marked by its ambitious vision and the challenges of shooting on location in New York City. Directed by Walter Hill and based on Sol Yurick's 1965 novel of the same name, the film aimed to capture the gritty realism and heightened stylization of gang culture. Hill, known for his minimalist storytelling and action-oriented direction, worked closely with producers Lawrence Gordon and Frank Marshall to bring the story to life. The decision to shoot primarily at night in real NYC locations presented significant logistical challenges, including coordinating with local authorities, handling the city's unpredictable elements, and ensuring the safety of the cast and crew amid the backdrop of the late 1970s crime-ridden urban landscape. The film's cast, comprised mainly of unknown actors, added to the raw and authentic feel Hill sought. Michael Beck, James Remar, and Deborah Van Valkenburgh were among the ensemble who portrayed the titular gang members. The production faced numerous hurdles, including conflicts with actual local gangs and navigating the complex, nocturnal shoots that spanned several months. Despite these difficulties, the team managed to craft a visually striking and atmospheric film. The soundtrack, featuring a mix of rock and orchestral scores by Barry De Vorzon, further enhanced the film's dynamic and intense mood.

"WARRIORS, COME OUT TO PLAY-AY!" For the second of our juvenile delinquency duo of films, we cover Walter Hill's 1979 cult classic The Warriors. The film is adapted from Sol Yurick's 1965 novel of the same name, which itself is adapted from Xenophon's Anabasis. Walter Hill takes this classical text and filters it through youth gang culture, comic books, and classic film westerns, using a soundtrack from Barry De Vorzon that fuses synth and rock, imaginative costume choices from Bobbie Mannix for creatively named gangs, and a cast of then-unknown actors who have gone on to become household names. Can you dig it? We've got a heavy rep, so press play to check out our little piece of turf.

This cult classic was based on the 1965 novel of the same name by Sol Yurick. The film was directed by Walter Hill and stars Michael Beck, James Remar, David Patrick Kelly & Deborah Van Valkenburgh.

Monkey jackets and ice cream pants!?! What kind of book has Jay picked out now? For all you boppers out there in the big city, Jay and Phil (that real live bunch from Coney), have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide as they take on Sol Yurick's 'The Warriors' and its 1979 movie adaption.   Leave us feedback on Facebook or at dogearedandcracked.ca (especially if you would like to point out that Phil's insistence that Cyrus was Greek is obviously incorrect). 

Hola excursionistas, soy José Luis Arribas y éste es el súper sonido de 'Ventajas de viajar en cine', desde 'Siéntelo con oído'. Procuren todos su billete de ida, acomódense en su butaca y durante este tiempo háganme el favor de parar sus relojes. El viaje comienza. Hoy: 'The Warriors'. Remontémonos primero muy atrás en el tiempo. Jenofonte, historiador griego que había sido discípulo de Sócrates, escribió un relato llamado 'La Anábasis', también conocida como 'La expedición de los diez mil'. En esta narración se contaba la expedición militar de Ciro 'el joven' contra su hermano el rey de Persia Artajerjes II, y cómo los mercenarios griegos a su servicio intentaban retornar a su patria, una vez Ciro era derrotado y había muerto. Se preguntarán qué tiene que ver un clásico griego con nuestra película pero todavía no hemos terminado nuestra odisea de relaciones. En muchas ocasiones el hilo de las ideas es mucho más largo de lo habitual. La historia que había narrado Jenofonte fue la inspiración para un novelista estadounidense llamado Sol Yurick, para que escribiera en el año 1965 su primera novela, titulada 'The Warriors'. Ya empezamos a ver un poco el final del horizonte de sucesos pero continuemos con la senda que iniciamos en la civilización Griega. En la novela, Yurick mezcla 'La expedición de los diez mil' con una historia sobre guerras de bandas callejeras que tiene lugar en New York. La compra de los derechos cinematográficos fue el siguiente paso. Una copia de la primera versión del guion junto con un ejemplar del libro llegaron a las manos de Walter Hill, el que sería el director de la película. 'The Warriors', filme de acción con el mismo título que el escrito en el que se basa, conocida como 'Los amos de la noche' en España, es estrenada en el año 1979, envuelta en la polémica debido a las manifestaciones de violencia que generaba. A pesar de esta recepción, empañada por el vandalismo y algún asesinato, llegaría a convertirse en una película de culto. La trama principal nos presenta un viaje muy especial, una expedición que cambia los personajes griegos por otros más urbanos, la epopeya de una banda callejera que desea regresar a su hogar, a su territorio, y los obstáculos que vence en el camino, cuando han sido acusados de un asesinato que no han cometido, el del líder de una de las bandas más respetadas de la ciudad, y deben huir por ello. Nos encontramos en un New York diferente al que conocemos. Estamos sumergidos en una distopía futurista que no tiene nada que ver con civilizaciones tecnológicas o controladas por un ojo que todo lo puede ver. La gran manzana acoge a cientos de bandas de todo credo y condición. En cierto momento acuerdan una tregua. Cesarán sus hostilidades para reunirse todas y oír a uno de sus líderes: Cyrus. Tiene pensada la unión de todas las facciones para hacer frente a la policía y así juntos tomar la ciudad. Pero algo inesperado ocurre mientras se celebra la reunión, a la cual han sido convocados nueve miembros de cada una de las pandillas, y alguien dispara a Cyrus. Una de las bandas, los Warriors, es inculpada del crimen, siendo todos ellos totalmente inocentes. La tregua termina con la confusión. Señalados y perseguidos, huyen dirección a su distrito, Coney Island, lugar natal donde tendrán al menos una posibilidad. La odisea del grupo, al que han puesto un precio muy elevado, acosados por el resto de rivales e incluso la policía, transcurre entre las calles duras de una ciudad peligrosa, en tren y a pie, separados en algún momento del viaje pero reunidos finalmente para el clímax final, momento de la aventura en el que la verdad será revelada. Finalmente, habiendo recalado en puerto, calmada la tempestad, un DJ anunciará que la situación de alarma con los Warriors ha terminado y los saludará con una canción. De obra vapuleada por la crítica, al igual que la banda que intenta salvar su vida, ha mudado su piel a obra de culto, con influencia y referencias en muchos aspectos de la cultura popular, en el mundo del videojuego, en canciones y en escenas de series de animación; con reuniones con los actores y viajes conmemorativos entre las estaciones de tren por las que los Warriors escapan de la muerte. En esta ocasión, la expedición de los guerreros no tuvo lugar en un tiempo remoto y en un lugar distante, sino sobre la larga senda que cubre el cortante asfalto.

  Book Vs Movie  The Warriors (Yes, the Cult Classic Film is Based on a Book!) The Margos are picking out our costumes for this special episode devoted to the cult classic The Warriors (yes, it was based on a book by Sol Yurick.) The movie, directed by Walter Hill, was a hit when it was released in 1979, but the glory of that was marred by real-life gang violence at the time which caused the movie studios to cease advertising the film. It was a staple of syndicated television throughout the 80s and is considered a modern classic and one of the earliest films to bring a comic book sensibility to urban decay.  Yurick wrote the original story in 1965 and based it on his experience working for the welfare department in New York City after graduating college in the 1940s. He became fascinated by the teenagers he met and how they navigated living in a big city. (At the time, the term “juvenile delinquent” was used to describe young people who got into trouble.) The basis for the story is a fictional account of gang life and the Greek story Anabasis.  In the mid-1970s, producer Lawrence Gordon bought the rights to the book and Paramount Pictures became the home of the film adaptation.  There are several differences between the book and film including the names and costumes of the multitude of gangs and its depiction of women.  So between the book and the movie, which did we like better?

On a very technical episode of the show we hung out with Sol Yurick aka Nightvisionnn and Christian R. Bauman aka Team Khris! We talked about one of my favorite games ever: Street Fighter!!!! We covered combos, new and old games, techniques, and a little bit of lingo as well! Enjoy folks!

Sol Yurick's 1965 novel The Warriors depicts the harsh and incomprehensible realities of gang life for young men in New York City. The movie adaptation removes much of the violence and adds a lot of camp. Jenna insists we discuss an ancient Greek story. Megan expresses abject terror at the idea of walking through subway tunnels. We both enjoy watching the protagonists be tricked by women.

There are 2 versions of The Warriors: theatrical release and director's cut. We recommend the theatrical release version because it eliminates that annoying comic book panels that interrupt the flow of the narrative. The film is based on the Sol Yurick novel, The Warriors (1965), which in turn is based on Xenophon's Anabasis (370 BCE).

Olá pessoal, no episódio desse mês falamos do livro “The Warriors” (1965) do escritor e filósofo Solomon Yurick, e da sua adaptação de mesmo nome para o cinema, de 1979. O livro tem como tema principal as gangues de Nova York da década de 1960 e a violência urbana. A partir disso, debatemos diversas questões relativas à cultura urbana das grandes cidades, como a questão do planejamento urbano, a miséria e a pobreza dos imigrantes e as estratégias e resistências culturais desses grupos. Conversamos sobre a proposta do autor de narrar a saga de retorno da gangue Dominators de Coney Island, passando pelos territórios inimigos. Debatemos sobre a discussão dos ritos de passagem e a violência nos espações urbanos, a opressão do Estado, o descaso público com as camadas mais baixas da população nova-iorquina, assim como de outros grandes centros urbanos. Falamos sobre a adaptação e a sua enorme influência na cultura pop, desde as vestimentas, a trilha sonora, passando pelo personagens icônicos, assim como os diversos outros tipos de mídias que foram influenciados pelos Dominators.

Let's just say this up front -- the book, The Warriors (1965) by Sol Yurick, is a realistic take on New York city gangs and their activities. Consequently, in our discussion of it and the 1979 movie of the same name directed by Walter Hill, we cover a lot of potential trigger warnings, use a lot of adult language, and touch on some less than pleasant topics. However, we still manage to have a bit of fun. And by the time we get to the movie portion of the show the mood lightens considerably. Through it all we continue our trend of butchering pronunciations; in this case the culprits are a couple of words that proved to be Greek to us. We also find a few ways to bind The Lord of the Rings to The Warriors. There's also more eyebrow talk, to the surprise of no regular listeners. And throughout, a lot of interesting tidbits culled from our tens of minutes of research. Come out and play (the episode)! *Special thank you to youtuber Amazinge12345 for having the answer to the much debated question of what happened to Cleon's character in the movie.

On Friday, January 5, we braved (or at least less-wussed) the single-digit temperatures of the “bomb cyclone” to make our last visit to the Landmark Sunshine Cinema (which closed last weekend as of this writing) for Walter Hill’s 1979 NYC gangs-in-costumes classic The Warriors. In this episode we talk about the movie, the novel by Sol Yurick, … Continue reading "The Warriors – it’s a long, hard ride from the Bronx to Coney Island. And goodbye to the Landmark Sunshine…"

Hace unos pocos años escuchando uno de mis podcast de cabecera, Vuelo 180, Wally Week y el Señor VCR hacían coñas continuas con una película de la que yo había visto abundante arte gráfico pero que yo desconocía, The Warriors. SÍ, esta es una de las que no te llegan no sabes muy bien por que, ya sea por que a ningún amigo le flipa y no te la recomienda o simplemente por que fueron de estas que ni de coña se cogían en los viajes familiares al videoclub a por la película de la semana, y que posteriormente o no estaba en el que tu eras socio o simplemente nunca te llamó la atención. Por eso cuando por fin me senté en el sofá armado con un buen bowl de palomitas y una botella de 2 litros de Cocacola (vida sana a tope) no me podía creer que me hubiera perdido durante tantos años una película con un ambiente e imaginería tan afin a mis gustos. Desde entonces las conversaciones con Pablo Lopez fueron habituales hablando de este título, que como a mi le había llegado tarde, y que nos apasionó desde la primera visualización. Bandas, tribus urbanas, señas de identidad grupales y todos esos clichés que de pequeño me hubiera gustado poder acoger con gusto estaban en esta película. Por que sí... yo también tenia mi banda en el cole... Bueno no es que hiciéramos nada fuera de lo común en las salidas al patio en el recreo... ya, pero éramos una banda, de 5 integrantes... sí, pero una banda... que llevábamos babis de colores... ¡Lógico era nuestro traje de batalla!... Aunque claro nunca nos enfrentamos a nadie y al final nos pasábamos el recreo jugando al "pillao" (Que cosa más divertida por cierto). En esta cinta, Walter Hill, adaptando la novela original de Sol Yurick, se adelantó a lo que fue un momento histórico en Estados Unidos y en la que "La noche" es la reina de esta historia. Ese terreno en el que todo mola más y eres aún más libre de desatar tus pasiones y aventuras, y si no, recuerda las anécdotas más recordadas de tu vida y casi seguro que se desarrollaron en la noche y posiblemente haciendo algo que no debías... que ya nos conocemos No quiero extenderme ya que el programa tiene una duración abultada y lo ideal es que os metáis de lleno con nosotros en esta banda formada en esta ocasión por: David Webb, Pablo Lopez, Champi, Miki Edge (Diseñador gráfico del cine Phenomena en Barcelona y que era esencial para el buen desarrollo de este programa como escuchareis) y el siempre escribiente por aquí Domingo Dark Vinyl... Carnívoros... Vamos a jugaaaaaaaar

"I'll shove that bat up your ass and turn you into a Popsicle." The Warriors! Can you dig it? Indeed we can. Based on Sol Yurick's book, which drew inspiration from Anabasis by Zenophon, a pupil of Socrates, Walter Hill's cult classic is one long chase from the top to the bottom of the New York City subway system. At a gang conclave in the Bronx, gangsters from all of the New York City boroughs gather to talk strategy. Cyrus, the de facto uber boss, addresses the thousands in attendance with one of the great speeches in all of moviemaking, including "Can you count, suckers? I say, the future is ours!" And he'd be forgiven for thinking that too. This depiction of NYC features barely any cops, and gangs are running roughshod over the entire population. When Cyrus is assassinated, rivals claim it was the Warriors, a multi-racial crew from Coney Island, Brooklyn. Of course, our heroes had nothing to do with it, but that doesn't matter as every other gang in the city thinks it's true. The Warriors then have to "bop" their way back to Coney Island, their home-base. And they do this on the New York City MTA. With tonnes of excitement, crazy rival gangs, fisticuffs aplenty, it's no wonder we LOVE The Warriors. Find more reviews www.reallyawfulmovies.com.
