Now Viewing: streets_of_fireTag type: Copyright "Streets of Fire is a 1984 [action] film directed by Walter Hill and co-written by Hill and Larry Gross. It was described in previews, trailers, and posters as "A Rock & Roll Fable". It is an unusual mix of musical, action, drama, and comedy with elements both of retro-1950s and [current, at the time] 1980s. The film stars Michael Paré as a soldier of fortune [called Tom Cody] who returns home to rescue his ex-girlfriend [Ellen Aim] (Diane Lane) who has been kidnapped by Raven [Shaddock] (Willem Dafoe), the leader of a biker gang [called "The Bombers"]." From < en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streets_of_Fire > The Final_Fight games were inspired by Streets of Fire (which was much more popular in Japan than it was in its native country, United States) with Cody_Travers and Jessica_Haggar being inspired by Tom Cody and Ellen Aim respectively. The plot of the game and the film also involved the hero rescuing the female lead from being captured by a ruthless gang.
