Always good to watch this again. Random observations:
* This time I'm struck by the quality of small parts - Cyrus, the head of the Orphans. These really stand out.
* The costumes are quasi futuristic but nothing is more outlandish than the prom outfits worn by those kids at the end. Did they come in from Saturday Night Fever?
* Why didn't Michael Beck become a bigger star? I know the answer for James Remar - drugs - but not Beck.
* Beautifully shot.
* I keep watching and rewatching the opening credits introducing all the characters - it's so beautiful.
* Why did Walter Hill never return to this style apart from Streets of Fire?
