American Graffiti 1973 PG, 110 min. Genre: Comedy / Drama
Director: George Lucas Cast: Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Cindy Williams, Paul Le Mat, Harrison Ford, Mackenzie Phillips, Kathleen Quinlan, Joe Spano, Candy Clark, Wolfman Jack, Charles Martin Smith, Bo Hopkins, Beau Gentry, Manuel Padilla Jr.
"Cruising" in the early 1960s on a hot summer night is the setting for this story of an end-of-summer good-bye as one of the group is leaving for college in the morning. It is an insightful glimpse of high-school seniors in a more innocent era before the Vietnam controversies when "Wolfman Jack" introduced their songs and represented their cultures. The five Academy Award nominations included Best Picture, Director, and Supporting Actress (Candy Clark).
