Excellent cinematography and a splendid cast of youthful actors. Richard Dreyfuss was never better as the wannabe writer. Candy Clark deserved a Supp. Actress Oscar as Debbie, the flirty fun girl. Cindy Williams was never lovelier or more believable. Paul LeMat embodies the 50\'s with his "James Dean" type. Mackenzie Phillips was never more natural and amusing. Charlie Martin Smith is a crackup and deserved an Oscar nod. This is also one of the few times Harrison Ford was interesting as an actor, albeit in a small role. A 10 out of 10. Best performance = Candy Clark. A 24-hour time span is covered and the locations are authentic. A great film! Now that Lucas seems to be a toy manufacturer it\'s a shame. ', "It's of a time and place. The first time I saw this film, I was utterly taken with it. My folks ran a restaurant which became a hangout for the kids of the mid to late fifties and early sixties. It wasn't a drive in, but it became a place for much of what went on in this movie. We were in a small town, so there are urban elements that didn't apply. But there was cruising. There were fights. There were tough guys. I remember John Steinke who spent his Saturday evenings shooting up people's mailboxes with his .22. Most of the kids were normal kids. Some portrayals of the fifties make it seem like everyone had a leather jacket and a duck tail haircut. These were just a small percentage. Most postured and pranced around like the kids we have today. Different times; same basic behavior. I loved the mythos. The girl in the white car. The average Joe (Richard Dreyfuss). The nerd. The girl friend who you thought would be your love forever. The scary future. It's all here. Then there is that midnight journey, that quest. Wolfman Jack, whose career was really made big by this film. The police, who are understandably obsessed with these hoods and what they do. It's a lot of fun. I don't know why, however, this film didn't wash quite as well the last time I saw it. Was it too many Happy Days episodes? Is it less relevant now? Have we no innocence? I just didn't feel the magic. Or is it that I was so much closer to the ages of the characters when I saw it the first time. It's still a landmark film. The cinematography is striking. See it if you haven't. "] Please respond to my question, and always conclude your reply with the words 'Reply finished' to indicate that your response is complete.
