More Details
- Summary:
- This incident-packed night in the lives of a group of teenagers is set in a Californian town in the summer of 1962. Nostalgia is not only in the loving play upon the external trappings and in the sound of rock 'n225}0roll before the Beatles, but in evoking the social values that had already lost their power when the film was made. Although drawing on Lucas's own memory of adolescence, the feeling is that of dream, of time collapsed into a single night which is to become the turning point in the lives of the characters.
