The creators of the movie The Outsiders, changed Dallas Winston's looks from the way he is described in the book. In the movie, instead of having blonde hair, he has dark brown. Also, in the book he has a pointy face, but in the movie he has a more handsome, regular face. The book describes his ears as lynx-like, but the actor in the movie has rounded ears.
The movie doesn't show everything the same as the book of The Outsiders, especially Dallas Winston's looks.
