We've followed these boys from adolescence to their premature adulthood in this hell town known as South Central in 1991.

Maybe it's that moment when Wind in his Hair asks Dances with Wolves if he can see that "he is his friend" and tells him that he "will always be [his] friend" that we missed.
Do you agree that this moment is one of the best?
