“Streets of Fire” Directed by Walter Hill was released in 1984 and tells the story of a lone mercenary that comes back to his hometown to rescue his ex-girlfriend kidnapped by a dangerous gang. It stars Diane Lane, Willem Dafoe, Rick Moranis and Michael Paré in the lead role as Tom Cody.
“Streets of Fire”’s biggest success is its soundtrack which contains very recognizable songs like “Nowhere Fast”. Still very popular today, over 30 years later. I think a lot of people don’t even know that song belongs to a film’s soundtrack. The film actually opens with that song and it opens beautifully. We meet Ellen Aim a famous singer as she gives a concert in her hometown. A dangerous gang lead by Willem Dafoe’s character, Raven, crashes the concert and kidnaps her. Tom Cody, Ellen’s ex-boyfriend is called by his sister Reva to come help get her back. He agrees to it after accepting payment from Ellen’s current boyfriend and manager Billy Fish played by Rick Moranis. An obvious plot ensues and the film delivers what it set out to deliver. The classic damsel in distress setup with a few twists and turns.
