5. American Graffiti
A total classic from George Lucas, pre Star Wars. It’s the start of pop culture going retro, as it created a whole kind of rock & roll revival with records being reissued and that double LP soundtrack being released. It’s the past informing the present so it’s important in terms of pop culture and teen films. It influenced a couple of other movies that we’re going to talk about later. And I love the music – ‘I Only Have Eyes For You’ and all those tunes. Fantastic.
