Shownotes

Dana and Tom discuss the movie that started George Lucas' career and helped him finance a franchise, American Graffiti (1973): written and directed by George Lucas, co-written by Gloria Katz and Willard Huyck, starring Ron Howard, Richard Dreyfuss, and Harrison Ford.

Plot Summary: On the last day of summer vacation in 1962, friends Curt (Richard Dreyfuss), Steve (Ronny Howard), Terry (Charles Martin Smith) and John (Paul Le Mat) cruise the streets of small-town California while a mysterious disc jockey (Wolfman Jack) spins classic rock'n'roll tunes. It's the last night before their grown-up lives begin, and Steve's high-school sweetheart, a hot-to-trot blonde, a bratty adolescent and a disappearing angel in a Thunderbird provide all the excitement they can handle.
