Does anybody remember this 1980 movie My Body Guard where this kid hires a body guard to protect him from the witts of Matt Dillion i belive this was Dillion first role before he did the Outsiders the music throughout the film was boring, it felt like watching those silent b/w filims

It's an excellent film. Saw it on the big screen when it was released.

I've heard of it but have never seen it. I'll have to see if my library has it.

I love that flick. The kids in it really behaved and spoke like kids I knew at the time. Great acting, too. A shame most of the stars didn't go on to greater heights than they did.

Both Matt Dillon and Adam Baldwin did well for a while.

that must have been a true life story, especially the way kids are getting bullied today this should be a great movie to watched which will either help them to stand up to bullies or higher a body guard

They're both still doing well.

Great movie....too Chris Makepeace's career didn't take off.....I remember he was reduced to doing shlock like New World's "Vamp" where Grace Jones was the vampire.

Vamp is an excellent horror-comedy. And you can tell he(And the other cast members) had a great time working on the film from their DVD audio commentary.
