#StreetsOfFire by #WalterHill. Favourite of my early teens. It immediately catches me again. First shot, the neon lights reflected on the wet street. Then going all-in with #JimSteinman's music, strong colours, the audience at the rock concert turning into an impersonal, billowing silhouette. #DianeLane, wow, Diane Lane! The threatening entrance of the incredibly evil looking #WillemDafoe and his gang. The sudden high-carnage fight and kidnapping with acts of totally gratuitous violence.

"And all the morons
And all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones that make the rules
It's not a game it's just a route"
-Jim Steinman, "Life is a Lemon and I want My Money Back" - recorded by Meat Loaf in 1993

Something about the world today made me hone in on those lyrics...
