Teenager Quotes
-
I think you are going through so many 'firsts' as a teenager, and it's a charged time because of that. You don't have much autonomy in life.

I first saw Walter Hill's second film, 'The Driver,' as a teenager, late at night on the BBC, quite possibly sitting too close to the telly. Given that this 1978 slice of neo-noir takes place almost entirely in the dark streets of a deserted downtown L.A., it's really a perfect midnight movie.
