AMERICAN GRAFFITI (1973)

Directed by George Lucas

Written by George Lucas, Gloria Katz, Willard Hyuck

Starring Ron Howard, Cindy Williams, Richard Dreyfuss

KATY SAYS: Fast cars, fun times and the nostalgia of youth.

ERIC SAYS: George Lucas’ other genre-shifting, ultra-influential movie that changed pop culture. From the diagetic soundtrack to the idea of nostalgia-as-marketing, to the influence it had on Happy Days (AAAAAYYYYY!), its impact is still felt.
