These teenagers are an element that no one knows how to handle. Denied love or dignity or patrimony or tradition or any culture but television, they rock around on the deck of an unstable society, their bread given to them by underpaid welfare workers, their hopes at zero, their mothers despised, their hearth the gutter, a sub-culture in a general American urban culture which itself does not know where it is going”).
