A human life is so short. It doesn't seem that way when you're young. But you wake up one day wondering where did all the time go!
You are so right..I'm 59 in less than a week and it's like WTF?!
It's going faster and faster and I'm not happy about it!!what's next, "get off my lawn you damn kids!!
Uggh
Or better still : Who the fuck is the one looking a me in the mornings when I wash my face!
True but it makes you realize how quickly it really all goes...I mean I remember turning 40 and all of a sudden now I'm pushing 60!!
The Thing is that time passes quicker the older you get, Im 23 and already see that. I think that with doing extraordinary things more often you can make it a Bit slowlier.
Do you remember that day? The day that you stop thinking what kind of life will I have and started asking what kind of Life did I have
I first saw this film in the mid to late 70s as a kid in the UK and it blew my mind, the drive-ins, drag racing, cruising the strip, the whole hot rod culture just looked like the best times....
Bo Hopkins is a great person. In 2011 I could barely walk and needed a back operation. I was at Pete Paulsons car show with my 1969 Camaro. I saw Bo signing autographs at his table. I asked him if he would be in a photo with me and my car. After signing autographs he walked all the way to the back of the show to find me and took the picture, very cool indeed.
Bo comes across a genuine, southern good 'ol boy.
I think your right
"Pharoah's forever"
Kathleen Quinlan still beautiful. She's owned my heart since 1973.
Saw 'American Graffiti' for the first time at a drive-in with my family one hot summer night in 1973 and knew instantly I was watching greatness, something that would be enjoyed and discussed decades in the future. And now here we are. Thank you all for the wonderful memories, memories that keep on giving.
Me too. I saw American Graffiti at a drive-in (remember them?) in Sydney way back in 1975 (films were usually released much later here in Australia in those days). I went with a group of friends, all in cars of the era - a 1961 Dodge Phoenix, Pontiac GTO, and (our Aussie offering) a two tone EK Holden. We had a great night downing burgers, coke and choc top ice creams while watching the film. Wonderful night and a fantastic film - I can still watch and enjoy it, albeit with a veil of nostalgia nowadays. Interesting to see the film's stars then and now ... who has 'had work done' , who has aged well and not so well, and who isn't with us any longer. Happy days, much better, simpler times .... and, Harrison Ford was so hot!
@ Mate! No diesel cars made by Holden back in those days! The EK, as did most cars available in the Land of Oz then, ran on good old fashioned leaded gas. We started phasing leaded petrol out in the 1980s here. Our family car in the 'American Graffiti' era was a 1957 Ford Customline Y-block V8 - I remember it well; it was a great car and served us well for nearly 10 years. Dad traded it on a 1961 Dodge Phoenix in the 60's. My current car is one of the last Australian manufactured Holdens - a big beastie with a 6.2 litre V8. Sadly, Australia's automotive manufacturing died with the closure of Holden in 2017. Over the years all my cars, except for one Jaguar were, like me, true blue Aussies.
Me & my friends did too and back in 1973, '50s cars could be bought for a couple hundred dollars (I had a '54 Chevy truck) & there were a lot of them at the drive-in. Fun days.
@@QueenKatz8 Was that at Matraville Drive In?
@@johnjames1484 No, it was the Skyline drive-in at North Ryde; I remember the evening well as I had been to my BFF's 21st in the afternoon; my friend picked me up later in his yellow Dodge Phoenix from the party, then we headed off to the drive-in to see "Graffiti". We had our cars parked side by side. It was a great day and night! Ahhhh the good old days! I miss 'em!
What was so amazing about this great movie is the fact that it was about a single night in America
In my old mind I see them as they were, young beautiful and vibrant. For me they will never grow old.
I wonder if we will ever get an expanded version of the film? George Lucas’ first cut was around 3 hours long? I can’t get enough of the film.Leave them wanting more I guess..
@@LEEFORDJAGG If there is a longer version I would like to see it.
I like it better when women let themselves grow old and not do plastic surgery or botox.
Perfectly put. It's like having a time machine every time you watch it.
@@LEEFORDJAGG I would definitely buy that.
This show was an all-time classic. Never gets old. Long live "Green Onions" ! :)
Chad Breedlove booker T
"Green Onions", love that song!
@@richeemills8533 Gotta love that one.
Not only did this classic movie define a generation, it defined Lucas and was representation of simpler and really better times in America
And helped finance the first Star Wars movie!
one of the best flicks ever, all us boomers can relate to it. i still watch it.
steve perry The part I relate to the most is the Pharaohs. I was a gang member in the 1960’s. And of course I relate to the music.
Very good and im a boomer..but one of best ever? .. Not much of a movie guy huh?
@@joebloggs8636 of course i am. i find it a film my generation can relate to but to each his own.
@@steveperry1344 i saw it when it came out and love ...its just not the greatest film ever..and no one would or SHOULD make that claim
@@joebloggs8636 i didn't say greatest ever, just one of the best for me.
In 1962, I started my career as a real live Top 40 DJ in Texas. Still rates as the greatest thrill of my life, playing all those songs and being a part of them on the radio. Gotta say that driving across the wilds of Nevada and checking out the Wolfman on XERB in the midnight hour is something I wish I could do again.
Great film and Great Actors. We all grow old and whatever they look like now is fine by me. They are always young in my heart
That pic is not paul le mat
Vic: “Look, creep, you want a knuckle sandwich?”
Toad: “Uh, no thanks, I’m waiting for a Double Chubby Chuck.”
Best line🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Phil M I howled with laughter when he crashed his scooter.
@Phil M That was a for real crash on the scooter. He had never ridden one prior to his role in American Graffiti. After he crashed he just stayed in character until Lucas yelled cut. George Lucas kept doing takes (about 20-30 takes) of the scene outside the liquor store where Smith catches the bottle from the robber. The one take where he almost didn't catch it is the one that was in the movie.
@@ssmt2 why don't we have ALL takes on the DVD? or do we? i never bought it
Shit🤣🤣🤣🤣I forgot that
Kathleen Quinlan was gorgeous then and she's still gorgeous
64 A LOOKS 44! Hotttttt!!!
Amen!!
I so agree...
She was BANGING hot in the twilight zone movie. Even just as good in Apollo 13.
@@Nmdixon-cu7vm directed by Ron Howard.... ;-)
There are certain movies that are bookmarks to the story of your life. This is one of those movies.
Absolutely correct.
Another one for me was Cheech and Chongs "Up in Smoke."
When I saw that movie I remember where I was, and who I was with, and where I saw the movie at. I was high as a kite.
Just found this tonight. I was born in 72. Had always known of this movie. This video very touching. I need to watch movie by myself. As the Golden Teacher's stand guard...
I remember going to see this when I was 10.
oh definitely agree with you James loved the movie n wolfman jack howl
Damn right, sir!
That movie is a time capsule! Once I start watching. I watch the whole thing. The crusing is what kids don't get today. All they know is front wheel drive. Never burned rubber or pilled out Man! Music, hasn't been the same since Buddy Holly died! Buddy your still my Hero! Long live Rock n Roll. Wolfman Jack the greatest D.J. who ever lived. Shawn
Back when your ride was more about how you made it, not how you bought it.
Never been the same since THE BEATLES!
Naw...I am 73 now, and would say that while Holley was great, the 60s and early 70s saw progressive Rock move to a higher level, but now, popular music is merely manufactured trash, fed through computers, aimed at 13yo losers.
I was 19 when the film came out. A car guy then, and still a car guy today. Amazing movie, I believe I’ve watched it 25 times or more. Just a beautiful movie.
Dang, Terry the Toad held up the best.
He had the least to lose.
@@SovereignStatesman That is so true!....most of the actors were pretty/handsome...he was not...but now he looks ok, and some of the other, previously beautiful ones really show the effects of time and the ageing process...Inevitable, I guess.
I think Candy held up well too.
Kathleen Quinlan looked the best.
Went to the Theatre with my Mom in her 1968 Impala SS to see this movie. Saw one of my friends hitch hiking, Picked him up and brought him along.Last movie we ever watched together. I miss you Mom...
The best film ever I could watch over and over
A friend of mine and went to the local theater nightly to watch that movie. Watched both showings.
Agree. This is in my top 5 favorite films. The weird thing is that the film does not really have a story line, and I usually hate films without story lines.
Being a rock n roller since 1963- age 11. yes the best movie for me. it has all things teen ager, angst . pimples. sex lure, cruising , nite out and rock n roll a plenty,!!!!!
My nephew first seen that movie when he was 8 years old his mother said he would watch the movie over and over. Back when this movie came out in 1973 I was 5 years old I don't think I saw the movie until it came on tv when I was 8 years old but you had to look at the tv guide to see when it was going to be playing on TV and be waiting for that day.
Love this movie. Can’t believe it was directed by the same guy that directed “The Phantom Menace”
Saw this twice in the theater when it came out, which, on my allowance, was quite a big deal. I was 12 and thought it was amazing. Still do. Thanks!
I make it my business to watch it once a year! Without fail! I just love it!
Best film ever made . Saw it 5 times in the cinema and 100 times+ on TV, video, dvd. Sad for those we have lost, but thank you for making such an awesome movie. Thanks for making this and posting. Great stuff.
Colin Ballard yes, agree in full - one masterpiece
I graduated from high school in 1973 and not long after that American Graffiti was still making the rounds when I got my first job at the Theatre in our small Florida town. I remember feeling stressed one warm moonlit night because I wanted to make sure I correctly spelled the title to the movie as I placed each of the letters up on the Marquee. As usher I got to watch all of the films for free, and I loved watching this one over and over again. I still remember the 'trailer teasers' that came with the posters of this one "Where were you in '62?" Wonderful days of innocent youth.
I too graduated in 1973 but due to having a night shift didn't see it till Spring 1974.I had bought s 1955 Nomad by then.But sold it a regeted ever since. About a month ago I bought a 1955 Bel Air four door with 60,000 miles. Sometimes the old ways are the best ways.
16 years old when this hit the big screens, can still remember every part must of watched it couple hundred times never get tired of it, good to see some have kept good health and sad for those passed to early. RIP
I was alive then and I feel very blessed to have been able to grow up then.
Those were the good old days!
Thanks for compling these pics of stars that have been out of the spotlight for so long; I wasn't sure how many were still with us. The majority of them aged well.
46 years since the film debuted......I'm surprised half these people are still alive-God bless them if they are.
I watched it in the movie theatre in 1973...till this day it's one of them movies that stands out..an awesome movie
Mine to.
I have the original vinyl sountrack LP. Still great and stands the test of time.
I am so impressed with Mr. Lucas, and his resolute, long-term belief in his script...Over two years to convince those in power to back this sensitive film.
Same here. I think the first PG movie I saw, either this or the sting
You are all still so beautiful 😍. RIP to those who died so young and made us so happy. Thank you 😇
Speaking of dying, I didn't know that Debralee Scott passed away. I remember her from "Welcome Back, Kotter" and another TV sitcom, "Angie," with Donna Pescow (who co-starred with John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever") and Doris Roberts (Marie Barone on "Everybody Loves Raymond").
I saw American Graffiti in the movie theatre...it changed my life. These faces have changed so much, I guess I'll have a popsicle.
Paul Le mat was the man and always will be. I must have watch that movie 150 * and still enjoyed it I used to go to the drive-in with my 55 Chevy through him I drag raced for years but one of his best movies was Aloha Bobby and Rose a must-see for a hot rodder thank you Steven Spielberg and Paul Le mat you live on forever no one beats Milner
Growing old with more wisdom, but with a certain amount of sadness. Just graduated high school in 72, so this movie had a strong connection to my youth.
I was born in 72. I was born with the fear you speak of... i see the clowns who stay in corners and put me in the steel box.... when I've been a good boy
Candy Clark looks absolutely gorgeous today. Wow.
So cute in The Blob remake in 1988
I wonder if Candy Clark has been in any movies lately. After being in "American Graffiti," she never became a big star like Richard Dreyfus, Ron Howard, Cindy Williams, or Suzanne Somers.
She and Paul LeMat (who played "Big John" Milner) appeared together a second time in "Handle With Care" (also called "Citizen's Band"), which was about people talking to each other on their C.B. radios, which was a big fad back in the 1970s. Like "American Graffiti," "Handle With Care" received mainly positive reviews, but most of Miss Clark's later films were, at best, fair or mediocre. In 1976, she was in a long forgotten comedy called "Hambone And Hillie," starring, of all people, former silent screen star Lillian Gish. In 1978, she co-starred with Robert Mitchum in "The Big Sleep," a remake of the classic 1946 mystery movie with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. A few years later, she appeared in a Made-For-TV movie called "Popeye Doyle," with Ed O'Neill (of "Married With Children" and "Modern Family" fame) as the detective played by Gene Hackman in 1971's "The French Connection" (a character based on Eddie Egan, the New York City police detective who investigated the real French Connection case). Candy played a stripper who becomes Popeye Doyle's girlfriend and helps him solve a murder case.
Aside from that, I don't know what other films she has been in, although I remember her making a guest appearance on an episode of "Matlock" with Andy Griffith, which is ironic because Candy's "American Graffiti" co-star, Ron Howard, was on "The Andy Griffith Show."
I agree! I just happened to live across the street from her in summer 1979 when my dad bought a house in Hollywood on Bronson Ave. and I moved down just after graduating high school in the foothills of N. Ca to help him fix it up. She lived in a pink two story Spanish and I saw her but a handful of times. We also were just one house away from Chuck Berry! Gotta love living in LA amongst the stars LOL!
@@tpolerex7282 Wow, that's so cool! You sure are lucky.
Michael Palmieri You forgot Cats Eye and The Blob remake she's done other films too I just can't recall
That was good to see if a little sad for the one's who are no longer with us.. top film which i could watch over and over again...
I prefer to remember them as they were, back in the day 😊
"Clap for the Wolfman!"
",...he's gonna rate your record high...."
I loved this movie and still do. I was 19.
I remember in high school, my date had "premiere tickets' to see this film so we did not have to wait in the extremely long lines. One of the greatest films ever made.
To all those posting derogatory comments about Paul le Mat: "Vietnam War veteran awarded the National Defense Medal and Vietnam Service Medal, and won the George Washington Honor Medal, from the Freedom Foundation. Attended Newport Harbor High School, San Diego City College, Cypress Junior College, Chapman College, and LA Valley College. Paul won the LA Diamond Belt, Welterweight Division, the Southern Pacific AAU Boxing Championship in 1972. Won two Golden Globes."IMDB
HAD NO IDEA ABOUT PAUL LA MAT. WHAT A WONDERFULL MAN. GOD BLESS HIM. SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST MULTI TALANTED..WOW.
Never heard of him
@@johnnyjm11 DEPENDS HOW OLD YOU ARE. WATCH AMERICAN GRAFFITI AND YOU WILL. DECORATED HERO.
@@johnnyjm11 Well, ya can't help stupid...
@@johnnyjm11 So self-professed ignorance is your response.
Thank you for putting this wonderful piece together. American Graffiti is timeless, regardless of it being set in the 50s. When a movie hits all your senses, it's forever a classic.
One of my all-time favorite movies I thank you for putting this together it was very enjoyable
I was 7, saw it in a Saturday Matinee. Just turned 53 last week. Saw both films. ✌
A lot of top-drawer stars came out of this. But Paul LeMat should have been a breakout from this one, as his performance was probably the best in the film.
I certainly agree with you here.
@@mastercylinder5225 If Paul LeMat would clean himself up a bit, he wouldn't look half bad.
John Milner..I loved him in this.. didn't he supposedly die after getting hit by a drunk driver?
Desiree Hall No
@@knk4ever83 yes
R.I.P. for the three that have passed away. And the others still are going strong.
Fantastic video! The music is haunting. I love it. It really adds to the video. This movie is one movie that everyone should see at least once.
This was a wonderful film. Great actors were born from this movie. Thanks so much for posting.
Man I had forgotten there were so many stars in that movie. I’m going to have to watch it again. It’s been so many years.
One of my favorite movies. I think I pop it in the DVD player tonight and watch it again.
This movie was so good, that it spun off Happy Days, and Lavern and Shirley. The unknowns who acted in this movie went on to become stars.
Cindy Williams was in all 3,of course starring in Laverne & Shirley.
Kathleen Quinlin still looks good.
And has remained a top-notch actress over the decades!
I thought the same thing.
I always thought Cindy Williams was a cutie
@@eargasm1072 However shes a dog today
When you could cruise the blvd. on 5$ of gas all night long. Then listen to great music playing over the radio. Meeting up with friends at the local burger place.
Go to a dance. Or go looking around.
Have a race because your car was bad ass !!
American Graffiti!!
Or the fact that you could cruise? We used to cruise back in the 80s in C.F., Iowa, but the the city cracked down in the 90s, making it illegal. What a shame...
You could cruise all week on $5.00 not a day.
The most accurate film representation of that particular era - and the best definition of what cruising downtown meant. The movie got it right, Happy Days missed the boat. John was real, "Fonzie" would have been a joke.
@@jojomcgee3430 How could they crack down on cruising? Sounds like Big Brother.
@@Acadmb Fonzie WAS a joke at first, just a local dropout until the series Jumped the Shark long before it literally jumped the shark.
Watched this on tv back in 78, at my friends house, I was 8. That night it became my favorite movie and still is this night 41 years later. Later when our family finally got a VCR I lost count after watching 25 times. As Terry would say, "I loooove this car!", I love protect and cherish this movie until death do us part!
One of my favorite movies. I saw it when I was 16 and it made a lasting impression on me. I don't think there has ever been another movie made which had so many future movie stars in it as this one did. It was a fantastic movie, one that I can watch over and over again with no problem.
The movie was filmed in Petaluma, California when I lived and worked there while attending Sonoma State University. I was delivery driver, pizza cook, and bartender at Pinkies Pizza which was prominently used in the movie as it was on the main drag and had a retro decor that fit the time period portrayed. Those were the days when Sonoma State was California's main weed school. There was always "Dead" or "Airplane" music blasting somewhere and nightly nude swimming at the dorms. Fun times.
And, yeah, I'm seventy-one now. We've all lost our looks but wifey and I still like to go out to Boomers Bar for live classic rock music, beer, and pool. Keep on Truckin'!
Good on ya pops
Cool...and The Doors and Hendrix/Joplin I suspect.
GojusJoe
I went to Granola U '81-'84.
We played Hacky Sack.
Don't forget frisbee..lots of frisbee
You da man
I was so connected to this movie through growing up drag racing etc , sad to see we all grow old but real sad for the lost ones, God Bless, they don't make them like this anymore....
Some look great for there age...
Thank you for sharing .
Kids today are missing out on so many things we took for granted. We would cruise gas guzzling cars all night for $5.00 in Petro. Never thought it would end. Those amazing70's will never be forgotten.
one of the best movies ever i watched it last night wolf man jack was taking to soon i miss these days
The greatest movie ever released on this planet.
my favorite film, all these characters bring back some really nice memories when I saw this film in 1973 I was 17 , great cast for sure!

looks just like Connie Stevens!
I saw it when I was 13 they don’t make movies like that anymore good ole days.
Ron Howard bugged George Lucas to no end on breaks from filming and down times, picking his brain about every aspect on directing, filming, and other chores of the profession
Mark, they do. You have to be VERY persistant and look hard. Lucas made this and between he and Ron Howard, some absolutely WONDERFUL films have been created
@@bentnickel7487 Yes, b.t.w. ' like your Call Name
Time is hard on us....Sad what time does.... sad
The diets don’t help
Never get tired of watching American Graffiti. It was on TV again the other night and yes I watched it again even though I've seen it dozens of times.
Saddest loss was Wolfman. I loved listening to him on late night radio. RIP Wolfman. Greatly missed old friend! 😥
I grew up in a small farming community about 65 miles south of where this was supposedly filmed in the "Central Valley". It was as if my little town was transformed into the movie - "Dragging Main" on Friday and Saturday nights, etc. What a way to grow up as a kid.
Cindy Williams was the cutest, I say.
I agree. Shame we all get old, but some of us-and them-are/were denied the privilege. I've heard that Cindy has MS. God bless her, and us all.......
Had a thing about Mackenzie Phillips, must have been a 15 year olds crush!
Yep, her and Ron Howard had happy days ahead.
@@MrFreakMeister Yeah she just proves that you can't fix bad teeth.
Cindy had a girl next door cuteness about her.
I saw it in 1973 and I really liked the Richard Dreyfus character...thought he was cute! Great movie, has aged well..
The passing of time. Then all will be lost. Like tears in rain. It will then be up to the remaining generations to keep their works in the minds and memories of the future. Things come into being. Then pass. I wonder if I will remember anything of this world when I fully transition to the next. Thank you.🌟
5 years later another classic that never gets old...Animal House with similarly aging stars,and a few Dead ones...Rip Belushi
I got a burning urge to see this again
Awwww!!! Sweet movie, brings back sweet memories!! I thank God for allowing me to pass through this life up till now. Always, be thankful!!!

Thanks for putting this video together, very nice to see and catch up on the stars of the movie. Seems only like yesterday that I drove my 70 Duster 340 down to the theatre to see this movie. I think that Charles Martin Smith aged the best of the male actors shown.
Although, he did lose his hair!...but Lucas did not!...not fair.
SUCH A GREAT FILM
Had the opportunity to meet Paul Lemat and Candy Clark at an event my daughter and I were attending. They were both gracious and friendly individuals. We thought very highly of both.
The music is a reminisce of what life / death and aging is. All part of life.
this made me very sad the passage from adolescence to old age but the montage is just great
It stinks
candy clark looks amazing!
Especially considering she went through a long period of drug abuse.
A favourite film of mine. I was 19 in 73. Sad so many of these folk died young. RIP 🇬🇧
Tried to get my son to watch this when he was younger. He said it looked stupid and not watch it. KIDS today have NO FREAKING IDEA of a CLASSIC!!!!!!
Actually wanted to see this, at the theatre. Was with my grandmother. Harper Valley PTA was billed against it. Guess what won out. It would be some years later before I would get to see AG. What a classic.
I bought it, plus a bunch of other movies from that era, like Duel, Convoy, California Kid, and gave them to my millennial friend. He is finally getting around to watching them....2 years later! They simply can't identify with such classics! I feel so old!
@@howarddrakeford Its their loss. Years from now they will have no good memories of anything. The cars suck, the music sucks . Well you know what I mean. Grew up in the 50's and 60's the best time their will ever be.
I'm sure your parents said the same thing about you at one time. Every generation thinks their movies and their music are the best, and it is, to them.
I've seen parents take their kids to a Stones concert and the kids played on the phone! Parents were disgusted and admitted they would never waste their money on kids again!
The music you present during this is very nice. I remember Manuel Padilla Jr. from *The Young and the Brave* 1963. I was his age when we saw it. I used to play Adventure in the backyard. Pretending to be him. God bless him.
I met Candy Clark and Paul Lemat in Syracuse some years back. Both very nice people.
I'm in British Columbia, Canada...and my good friend and former neighbor, Cameron, met Candy in California years ago. Before He moved away, he gave me a photo of him and Candy together, plus the western shirt he was wearing in that photo. I thought is was so cool of him and I treasure the photo and shirt. Yes, Cameron said that Candy was very nice and sweet too. :)
@@willyboy6126 I always laugh at the scene where she tells Toad something like: "I got to watch you get sick, and then you got into a real bitchin fight, I really had a great time tonight".
Simply Amazing... for this film... I loved the music as much as the movie...
Funny you should mention the music in this film. Not only do I have both A-G films, but I also stumbled across this 2 cd set of all the music that was featured in the first film. Talk about a real find!!!
Just showed this to my own teenage kids last night and the loved it. It's timeless.

Many of those old songs were rediscovered thank to this film.
Dont let the Wolfman getcha!
It sucks to watch people grow old. This is still one of my favorite movies to watch. " yeah, there's very wicked 55 Chevy lookin for you"
Bought this movie 5 years ago and damn, it's real good. George Lucas captured what it was like to be young in the early 60's just as the Beach Boys and Rock were pushing out Rock n Roll and Doo wop era and Vietnam was lurking around the corner.
Listened to Wolfman Jack on Armed Forces Radio while stationed on Okinawa early '70s 12 midnight
I listened to him on Saturday nights while cutting laps in the early '80s. Good times.
I would listen to him schlepping pens, etc. on the border in my 1953 Ford and 1954 Chevie. I was stationed just across the border from TJ at Imperial Beach CA.
I was 18 when I drove my 56 Belair to see ( known as the best B movie ) of all time. The time, Music, Cars & things we got into then really hit home with me. Ive seen A/G 29 times & want to see it once more before I die. Yea I put on a burn out show leaving that nite ! ☺
Hope you still have that car
I was 12 then, I watched that movie 3 times one Saturday and closed the theater and walked home. Great Classic
One of the greatest flicks of all time!
Its amazing what the years will do to a persons appearance.
Thank you for adding the film date, and age at the time of release.👍😎 I enjoy what you are doing, for us fans.😊
first saw this when I was about 13 or so in the late 90's. liked it so much, I painted my 68 Huffy yellow and my Murray Eliminator black. bicycle tributes to Milner and Falfa. went cruising every chance I could get when I was 16. usually in my dad's Ramcharger.
This was a fantastic movie. Most movies today do not compare. It s something that never gets old.
Thanks for that. Very cool.
Enjoyed this and interesting to see
How time has changed these people but also sad that we lost
Some.
ThNk you.

My friend and I sat through two consecutive showings of this movie...back in those days when you didn't need to leave the theater after the first showing of a film, especially matinees. We did the same with "The Way We Were". And the tickets for matinees were $1.
