    • Production

    The film was rated "PG" rather than the "G" then customarily earned by Walt Disney Studios productions, and was noted as an early effort by Disney to incorporate more mature subject matter into its films. Tim Hunter, who had previously co-written the 1979 film Over the Edge with Charles Haas, brought the project to Disney and asked for the opportunity to direct it himself. The film was shot entirely on location in and around Tulsa, Oklahoma and its suburbs, the setting of the S. E. Hinton novel on which it is based.

    Tex

    by: Litfiba

    Sulla strada ci sono solo io
    Circondato dal deserto attorno a me
    Il silenzio taglia tutta la citta`
    Grande spirito mi chiama dal falo`
    Oh, ma cosa dici?
    La vostra liberta`
    Oh, che cazzo dici
    Noi ce l' avevamo gia`
    Giorno e notte, notte e giorno senza via
    La mia gente e` come un' aquila senz' ali
    Tu cavalca, cavalca mio cow-boy
    Che la terra tanto ce la rubi a noi
    Ah, che cazzo dici
    La vostra liberta`
    Oh, ma cosa dici?
    Noi ce l' avevamo gia`
    Non voglio piu` amici, voglio solo nemici
    Non voglio piu` amici, voglio solo nemici
    Basta le vostre bugie
    Tu cavalca, cavalca mio cow-boy
    Che la terra tanto ce la fotti a noi
    Ah, che cazzo dici
    La vostra liberta`
    Oh, ma cosa dici?
    Noi ce l' avevamo gia`
    Non voglio piu` amici, voglio solo nemici
    Non voglio piu` amici, voglio solo nemici
    Basta le vostre bugie
    Tu cavalca, tu cavalca
