My Bodyguard
1980
96 Min
Tormented by a gang of bullies — led by Matt Dillon, in one of his first film roles — sheltered new kid Clifford (Chris Makepeace) seeks protection from older student Linderman (Adam Baldwin), a burly loner who’s rumored to have killed — and possibly eaten — his own brother. Martin Mull, Ruth Gordon and Joan Cusack also star in this coming-of-age story about an unlikely friendship between two outcasts. Tony Bill directs.
