So last night I watched American Graffiti for the second time in a week. It is currently number 4 on my list of favorite movies!
Why is it one of my favorite movies? Well, it's everything I love! The setting is California 1962 and is based of George Lucus's teenage years. Yes you heard right, the genius George Lucus, the one with that came up with the Start Wars Saga. The things which I totally love are the cute outfits (which I plan to someday make my wardrobe look like along with a bunch of dresses from the '50s), vintage cars, and some badass! haha. When I watched this movie I couldn't believe how many songs I knew! They were all oldies from my dad's collection that I love. Songs like Sixteen Candles, Love Potion No 9, and The Great Pretender.
Isn't this photo so darling? I just adore Laurie, but I can't see her being a head cheerleader. That has nothing to do with the plot. It was only mentioned once. Some of the black and white photos online are confusing me since I saw the film in color.
My favorite story of the movie is John and Carol's. At first I didn't like John at all cause he doesn't look too good in the beginning. However, being stuck with "Judy's sister," was such a cute little story and his greaser look and hot shot as the fastest racer in town made me just love John.
Harrison Ford! Who doesn't love Harrison Ford!? Oh, I wish I got to catch of glimpse of him at Comic-Con but didn't get to. He was so handsome.
The genius himself, back in the day, with his USC jacket.
Oh, and if anyone has £79.00 they'd like to give me for this canvas, feel free!
