I like to think of West Side Story, The Warriors and Escape From New York as being a trilogy.
West Side Story sets the stage of sorta wacky hyper-stylish street gangs fighting over turf, with police only serving to maintain a white status quo. The Warriors depicts attempt at a multiracial coalition-build of said gangs. Escape From New York depicts the right-wing backlash.
Logging off before I loop Newsies into this.
