quadrophenia or the warriors?

two cult films from 1979....both have great music soundtracks...which is the better film? which do you prefer?

my choice is the warriors, my only gripe is it's too short at only 92 minutes...quadrophenia seems dated

Loved both of them

But as I was not a Mod, its the Warriors first for me

Both as good as each other,,, one British and one American. Didn’t the film “Scum” get released in 79 also? Another cult film, imho.

Cant rem the date Rick, but Scum was another great one of that era

Warriors

Quadrophenia without a doubt.Listening to The Who's brilliant songs throughout(especially 5.15).Great humour throughout aswell.Pity Leslie Ash had proplems wity her beauty therapy as she didn't need it in the first place.

Warriors

The Warriors hands down, nowt wrong with Quadrophenia but The Warriors just has more of everything I want from that sort of film. Cracking soundtracks on both though.

Both good films, but The Wanderers, which came out around the same time, was better than both I think, it had the gang stuff, lots of humour, and a great soundtrack.

Warriors - one out to plaaay

Quad edges it for me based on the music.

Quadrophenia for me, just love The Who so that's all I can say.

Eh? None of them - Only one of the films from those days

The Wanderers

Don't F uck with the Wongs

The Fordham Baldies are so mad they shave their hair so it don't get in their eyes when they are fighting

Utter classic - I'm an Eskimo - Racism 70's style

Both great movies.
So many famous people in Quadraphenia.

Both were good but 'Quadrophenia' edges it for me...

Ironic, as I had long hair and was into motorbikes at that age and disliked scooters (still do)

Two other great film from that era were 'Mad Max' and 'Monty Python's The Life of Brian'

Tough one, both great movies. Actually watched Warriors a couple of weeks ago but haven't seen Quadrophenia for a long time probably because it doesn't travel well to any other country and is never shown.

Always enjoyed both but I have to go with Warriors.

Still riding the dream Andrew; sadly the wind through the hair experience has long since gone...!

This^^
Read the warriors book and the film was nothing like it, enjoyable film but basically a latter day Western. Must confess I've only seen clips of Quadrophina

Both good films, but the Wanderers beats them both. Amazing film from start to finish

Warriors by a mile for me.
