Having lived through that era, it's staggering how realistic that movie was -- in the set, in the music, and in the cultural interactions. That cruising scene was really the way it was in hundreds of towns across America. It strikes me that kids today don't have anywhere near the fun that we had in the 60's. . .

My dad was born in 1941 so 1962 he was 20/21. This movie was one of his favorites, and I regret not watching it with him at least once to get his take on it and that era, and I can't because he died in 1990 when I had just turned 21. I have a picture of my first real girlfriend and I with Wolfman Jack, my dad made us go down and meet him while he was DJing some radio thing at the Greenhouse on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands in the summer of 1986, when I was 17 - I grew up on the island. I did not get to talk to him and really didn't know much about him beyond what my dad told me, "a pirate radio jockey on the border of Mexico". I remember he was not tall and very round.

My all-time favorite movie. My teenage years in Napa, CA in the mid-80s were just like this movie, just different hair and clothes. We even cruised in Petaluma, where Graffiti was filmed.

I was born in 53 but had siblings born 10 years before me. We lived on a lake year round and in the summer the population probably increased 3 or 4 times. Everyone would run there cars around the road. They was also a clubhouse that had dances Friday and Saturday nights.

Have to love the 55 Chevy driven by Harrison Ford but John Milner was my favorite character. It was a great ensemble of actors and characters. Milner's Deuce Coupe sits on my mantle as a model and I did up when I was in my teens. Will never grow tired of watching this classic

This film is the diary of my teenage years in this era. I fondly remember cruising Woodward Avenue (U.S. 10) in a brand new 1959 Ford. Woodward is an eight lane divided highway famous coast to coast as the highway-dragway with the U.S 10 sign near my house in advertisements for G.M. muscle cars. Our Mel's Drive-in was Elias Brothers Big Boy where for a Dollar one could get a Big Boy burger, fries and a drink, and gas at the Shell station across the avenue was 19.9 cents a gallon. As Archie and Edith sang, "Those were the days."

I had just broken up with my first boyfriend before seeing this movie. He was a red-head & seeing Ron Howard here just made me sad & reminded me of him. My favorite by far, though, was John Milner. What an awesome character, & Paul LeMat was gorgeous! I wish I could have lived in this sockhop, soda fountain era. Sigh.

They found the American Graffiti CD and played it over and over and really loved it. So I took them through Petaluma and showed where it was filmed. We stopped on Old Adobe Road where the race scene happened. It changed a lot since the filming.

LOVED, loved, loved AG. It was impeccably cast with largely unknown kids ... who all went on to build fabulous careers. The choice of music was perfect. Set design, slang, cars, and costumes were SO authentic to the period. The only thing that bugged me was the ending that revealed the fates of the male characters. Why weren't the girls given that treatment? As for the sequel, I wish it had never been made. I really disliked how they handled it.

This movie 🎥 👌 brought good memories for me,I was with someone who I loved very much. The bad part of it from memory sake there was an old witch 🧙‍♀️ who broke us up.I've never ever liked her since she did what she did to me. I found out that sometime later that the guy I loved died . Both of us were apart from each other for 41 years. I never ever got the chance to say what I wanted to him . I sure really truly honestly did enjoy the movie 🎥, time we had together as a couple 💑. I sure really truly honestly did enjoy the music as well. Each of the actors and actresses were wonderful in the movies. As far as the movie 🎥 goes I would give it a thumbs up 👍 anytime.

My all-time favorite movie. Didn't care much for More American Graffiti, though. The split screen thing, and jumping between different time periods, didn't work for me. But it was still great to have a sequel.... and the music was great, just like in the first one!
