}}80 Blocks from Tiffany's is a 1979 documentary directed by Gary Weis.[1] It depicts the daily lives of gangs within the context of the South Bronx. It deals primarily with two gangs, one African American and the other Puerto Rican, known as the "Savage Skulls" and the "Savage Nomads".[2]

The South Bronx was known for its severe social decay during the 1970s[3] and this idea was emphasised throughout the documentary. The documentary also illustrated many social issues such as high unemployment, prostitution and drug and alcohol abuse.[1] The name of the documentary refers to the distance between Tiffany's jewelry store on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and the South Bronx.

80 Blocks from Tiffany's was released by Pacific Arts Entertainment for Home Video on VHS in 1985.
