From director George Lucas (Star Wars) and producer Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather), American Graffiti is a classic coming-of-age story set against the 1960s backdrop of hot rods, drive-ins and rock n’ roll. Starring Ron Howard, Richard Dreyfuss, Harrison Ford, Cindy Williams, Mackenzie Phillips and Suzanne Somers in their breakout roles, this nostalgic look back follows a group of teenagers as they cruise the streets on their last summer night before college. Nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, American Graffiti features the howling sounds of Wolfman Jack and an unforgettable soundtrack with songs by Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, The Beach Boys and Bill Haley & His Comets.

It was also a number on the back of one of the battle droids in Phantom Menace. And you can hear General Reikan say, “Send Rogues 10 and 11 to Station 3-8” as Han and Chewie head out to investigate the probe droid in Empire.

Probably re-watched it, like... 50 times since seeing the movie in its entirety many years ago? The scene- esp. that "main street" vibe at night. is awesome. the dialogue, too. the song in the bg I almost wanna visit that exact street in Modesto (or Petaluma) at night just to get that feel

@ForceMaximus84 Год назад

So, because he appeared in this movie, George Lucas had no intention of casting Harrison Ford as Han Solo, but Harrison ended up reading as the character for other actors’ screen tests and he was so good in the readings that Lucas relented and gave him the part. Imagine if he stuck to his guns and didn’t cast Harrison. We might have gotten Kurt Russell or Perry King as Han instead and Harrison might be best known as Bob Falfa.

How in the world Harrison Ford became a big star and Paul Le Mat didn't, is a big freaking mystery.

@Russell_Huston Год назад

Le Mat IS a pretty engaging personality in this movie. I think every teen age guy, no matter their actual age, who saw this film wanted to be Milner. Tough guy speed demon who was kind to guys like "Toad" and girls like Carol, and wise enough to not do stupid things like blow through that red light. I like Milner a lot. And I just ignore the bit at the end of the film saying he was killed by a drunk driver. You know what though, personalizing the cost of drunk driving, even with a fictional character like Milner, really does help shape peoples attitudes about irresponsible behavior, so I'm not too mad at Lucas for killing off a great guy like John. God challenged Milner to a drag race in heaven,......God lost. Yellow Duce Coupes forever!

@gnosticcinema9596 Год назад

I thought it was pretty poetic to have Milner killed by a drunk driver, something he almost spoke into existence when walking in the car graveyard earlier in the film. Like the other main characters, he is at a crossroads and being pulled in two directions: keep risking his life in street races or grow up and put it behind him. He almost does the latter after the Paradise Road accident, but ironically is convinced to keep doing it by the guy who would end up getting killed in another pointless exercise of violence in Vietnam. Milner represents the toxic Americana death wish of the James Dean era who didn't learn the tragic lessons from the fallen icon.
