I suddenly feel compelled to talk more about this (ty @qprpbj for this)
the CURTIS gang is only the curtis gang bc it’s sodapop CURTIS’ gang. It’s not Darry’s, because Darry isn’t in the gang. Sure he goes to rumbles, and hangs out with all of them but part of that is because 1. It’s his brothers friends and 2. he’s a greaser, what else can he do? It’s stated in the book and confirmed by S.E Hinton that Darry isn’t in the gang at all, nor does he want to be. He didn’t “go soc” in highschool, he just hung out with socs. Even if he was a greaser, he didn’t wear that title with pride. Soda fully embraced the title, wore it right next to his heart on his sleeve. I would bet money that the gang wasn’t even like, a thing until Soda kinda looked around at his friends and went huh. we’re kind of like a gang. and everyone ran with it. It’s also Soda’s gang because everything circles back to the kid. For example, I don’t think Steve would’ve voluntarily hung out with the rest of the group had it not been for Soda. Neither would Ponyboy. I also like to think that everyone met Johnny through Soda, even if it’s Ponyboy he’s closest with. I just have a feeling they were in the same class along with Steve. Not entirely sure how Dally got there, but it was probably Soda. Soda honestly could’ve just seen a kid his age chilling by himself and invited him over for dinner bc his mom makes GREAT spaghetti. Two-bit was just a neighbourhood kid Darry used to hang out with until high-school, where he got different friends and such, but Two-bit was still around and ended up mixed in with the group, not that he’s complaining. I don’t think they ever made themselves known as a gang but that’s how others saw them anyways. “it’s the curtis gang” “who’s gonna be at the rumble?” “the curtis gang” “that kids from the curtis gang.”
idk if this makes any sense but thank you for coming to my ted talk.
kind of an interest check! if i was to make The Outsiders/The Outsiders musical linocut prints, would anybody be interested in buying them? i'm still working on designs, but they'd probably be roughly $10 a piece?
The more references I look up of the Curtis house the more confused I am. I think Pony and sodas room has two doors, one to the kitchen and another the hall/ living room. Don’t even get me started on the complex mix of space that is the living room and dining room.
Been looking at movie photos and museum photos for help but at this point I need them to drop like the original floorplan.
this 110%, especially after playing him in the play
unpopular opinion that “The Outsiders Musical” (2023) takes inspiration from “The Outsiders Play” (1990) by Christopher Sergel which were both adapted from S.E. Hinton’s 1967 The Outsiders novel.
