The first time I saw "American Grafitti" I was just a kid. It is a great movie and will always be one of my personal favorites.

I was able to see Milner's car in Modesto during one of their cruise nights. (It was years ago.) Being a fan of the movie it was a blast seeing a bit of history. I never knew my Dad knew the owner and I got to sit in the driver's seat. Man! To behind the wheel of one of the most famous hot rods was awesome. Still love the movie to this day. (Didn't care for the sequal at all.)

American Grafitti, What a Great movie !!! It's all about being young... where high school friends spend that last memorable summer together, before they journey out into that real world... and become adults.

The story takes place in the 60's. But, we have all lived this in our teen years, regardless if that time was the 60's, 70's, 80's or 90's. Bottom line is that EVERYONE can relate to this movie.

I grew up in the early 70's and graduated in 74. I had a hotrod
69 Roadrunner. Yes, we had a "Paradise Road" and raced on
weekend nights... and yes, we also had a "Holstein" who was always out to bust us... but never did. ha ha.

IThe film works fo me in lots of ways The music: yes. The cars: yes, and you could enjoy it for that happy stuff. Or you could go a lot deeper. It was the end of something for those kids - Steve knew "you can't stay 17 forever", but he missd the plane in more ways than one and was stuck with whimpy clinging Lorie.

Curt got out - but only thanks to the Joe and his hoods. In one night they got Curt involved in a robbery and willful distruction of police property - so he had to get out of town.

My favorites will alway be Terry and Debby. God I love that peroxide hair! Toad was the innocent good hearted every-ones victim and Debbie was the most fair dinkum girl in the film: a real pal as well as a "bitchin' babe". It was kind in a way that Milner was to be killed by a drunk driver, because "Paradise Road" was taking him nowhere.

Anyway, the film did touch something in me, like lots of you.

I first saw the movie while on R & R in Saigon (USMC Recon. at the time) while I was in from the bush. I couldn't believe it; I didn't even know that there was such a movie planned when I left early in '71. Most of the cruising scenes are from my home town, Petaluma, California and I took huge pleasure in that alone. Still do. In fact my first race was on that very road (Frates Road) where the black '55 lost it. I still race there when the mood strikes. Most of those stores are long gone. Petaluma is now a yuppie antique dealer populated town, but back then.....

I Think "Cooley High" (1975) was a better movie.
