Dazed and Confused - 5

This is an interesting period piece. Not one from the 19th century mind you, but an interesting look at a typical high school in the mid-70's. It is actually a quite nostalgic look at this time period, except the junior high hazings. It has plenty of ironic lines like, "The 80's are going to be great, how much worse could it get." This film is really a look at a group of people rather than a story or plot. It is really about teenagers trying to live life to its fullest, or maybe just what they think that is.
