This film is an adaptation of the 1967 novel of the same name by S. E. Hinton.
Director Francis Ford Coppola wanted Matt Dillon to spend a night in jail to understand the character of Dallas Winston a bit better. Dillon refused, saying, "No way, Francis, how about you go spend a night in jail?"
In the film's poster, the Greasers are shown laughing as Johnny is smirking. This was a candid shot, taken during the photo session in which the actors were supposed to look tough at the camera. What happened was that Leif Garrett (Bob, the Soc) was approaching the food table off-camera, and a stagehand said, "Hey, Leif. Don't dig in yet. Save that for the actors." Then Ralph Macchio said, "Yeah Leif, save that for the actors." This comment cracked up the cast, and the photo was used.
Dallas falling out of his chair at the drive-in was completely accidental, and Ponyboy (C. Thomas Howell) looks briefly at the camera while laughing.
