In the night, young people drove to show off looking for girls everywhere, and the uniform band played romantic rock at the dance party. The night before a group of young people in the 1960s went to work separately. This is the 1973 work of Star Wars director George Lucas [American style painting], which seems to be a memory of the "innocent age" that he once experienced. (Someone on IMDB mentioned that the script was created in the late 1960s, maybe it was the sigh and remembrance born after the Vietnam War to a certain extent.) There
must always be four characters with different personalities, but at the same time fascinating as the story develops : Steve, who was wobbly between schoolwork and love, gradually lost the girl's heart in the embracing dance steps. Terry, who added a joke to the audience, can also meet the girl of Xinyi and have a lost night. Curt, who wandered all night in an unknown direction, made a decision for himself the moment he finally received the call he had dreamed of. And Milner, who has the title of first racer, still longs for a real victory in the end.
Steve, who had originally planned to go far away, gave up leaving, and the three of them saw Curt off to another country the next day. And remember that at the beginning of the movie, Curt told Steve that he didn't have to prove himself far away. In this way, fate flipped overnight.
"Mysterious Man" wolfman's radio program is like a voice-over interspersed between chapters. Slightly teasing but warm airwaves rang throughout the night, running through the entire movie. Maybe that is another distant memory.
PS: The lineup in the cast is still quite backed in the future. For example, Harrison Ford, who I can recognize, can only look at his burned car and sigh after being arrogant. And Steve played by director Ron Howard, who was less than twenty at the time.
The episode is very familiar. Smoke Gets In Your Eyes with Steve and Laurie dancing, and Only You near the end.
