American Graffiti



George Lucas has to be praised for the authenticity and absolute immersion of his vision of fifties America, but this film feels like a series of sequences and skits that shuffle unhurriedly to a conclusion that's almost a given. Set in one night, a lot of the scenes are dimly lit, and the pacing is frustratingly slow. Ten out of ten for style though.
