Description of this American Graffiti Poster
American Graffiti is a 1973 American comedy-drama film directed by George Lucas, produced by Francis Ford Coppola, written by Willard Huyck, Gloria Katz, and Lucas, and starring Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard (as Ronny Howard), Paul Le Mat, Harrison Ford, Charles Martin Smith, Cindy Williams, Candy Clark, Mackenzie Phillips, Bo Hopkins, and Wolfman Jack. Suzanne Somers, Kathleen Quinlan, Debralee Scott, and Joe Spano also appear in the film. Set in Modesto, California, in 1962, the film is a study of cruise ship culture and the early days of rock ‘n’ roll, which was popular at the time among Lucas’s age group. Through a series of vignettes, it tells the story of a group of teenagers and their adventures over the course of one night. While Lucas was working on his first film, THX 1138, Coppola asked him to write a coming-of-age film. The genesis of American Graffiti took place in Modesto in the early 1960s, during Lucas’s teenage years. He was unsuccessful in pitching the concept to financiers and distributors, but it found favor with Universal Pictures after all the other major studios turned it down. Filming was originally scheduled to take place in San Rafael, California, but the production crew was denied permission to shoot beyond a second day. As a result, production was moved to Petaluma. The film was the first film to be produced by George Lucas’s company, Lucasfilm.
American Graffiti had its world premiere on August 2, 1973, at the Locarno International Film Festival in Switzerland, and was released on August 11, 1973, in the United States. The film received widespread critical acclaim and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.[2] Produced on a budget of $777,000,[1] it became one of the highest-grossing films of all time. Since its initial release, American Graffiti has reportedly grossed well over $200 million in box office and home video sales, not including merchandise. In 1995, the United States Library of Congress deemed the film “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant” and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry. 3] A sequel, More American Graffiti, was released in 1979.
