Community Service Letter Samples

American Graffiti - George Lucas (1973)

(Id.)

Viewed VHS.

The night before leaving for college are four friends to celebrate together, in fact it will soon lose sight of, and each, in its way, lost innocence, naivete, or the illusions of adolescence. The protagonist, Dreyfuss, incamminerà is a path to try to interpose obstacles to the start, because it really does not want to leave home, the encounter with a weary idol of young people who would be young and false papers to get the potersene give the last push to get started.

Mild tale of training (which will give to the " Happy days ", but fortunately we are not in the depths of comedy films) for structured, but this was his trump card in the setting in the early 60's, so comparing the carefree youth of the protagonists with those of United States (Kennedy died there one year, after two starts in Vietnam, after six there will be 68) who still have not lost illusions.

The film is left to follow with grace and has a nice cast of characters that seem trivial, but for a closer look will show as losers leaving no possibility of recourse (the mechanic who will not go to college but will remain locked in the car and races in his work; Ron Howard that sends all the air out of love, etc.).

The only drawback is that this film looks like advertising a car dealership. The characters spend more time shooting aimlessly in the car than in their clothes. If it were really the '60s then I understand where it comes from all the pollution of our day.
