What a great era. Cars..Music..Girls. Never to be seen or repeated again.....I'm so glad and thankful I grew up in it.
Yeah, you're very fortunate, great era to grow up in, I'm a 70s kid, I was lucky too.
Lmao shut your old asses up your guys time is over just like my time will come too... but for rn it’s still money music cars and pussy
Micheal Woods don’t be such a peckerwood woods 🤡
Jorge Vortec57 shut up
I wish I that would've been able to grow up in the 50's.
That's when America was America.
Marco Ceccarelli when American was great , now is dead with a joker in the white house .
@@antoniov4152 sadly
I like your song man
You mean Obama one big ass mistake America
Your right I lived it what a time to be 18 Friday Sat nights Lewiston Idaho cars, girls, crusing.
Better days, better cars and better music ....
Not better music 50s and 60s yes not today's music
Back then we had nothing to what young people have today-but we had everything. I miss it.
Sure, because people still had VALUES. Not like the entitled little ingrates clogging the country today.
I wish I was around during that time
Every thing seemed better people had moral back the and people respected others. Even not over 18 I would really like to live like that back then can careless about tech but as long as I got a skateboard I’m good.
@@stellarocquie7957 would you mind telling me what those values are? Sure the cars were cool, the music was good, and so on, but I wouldn't say that was because of their "values". If anything, society today has more values and, dare I say, better values than the 50s, which include, let's think, oh yeah, not being racist, not being sexist, not being homophobic, and not bringing the world closer and closer to nuclear armogedden (forgot how to spell) due to irrational fear. Like c'mon now don't be so backwards and hateful for no reason. oogah woogah hoogah?
@@solhewrext5710 The 50s gave the country 70 more years. We’ll see what this generation gives and for how long.
Sad that todays generation will never understand how free it was to live back then...
Nope! All us young children are slaves to the system :) our future is destroyed! Thank you!
Bullshit, I laid rubber every stop sigh and light in 2 counties today.
@@aliceshaw8265 It's a Kia Rio thank you very much!
@Lucas Cruz Don't forget they're all ENTITLED, too!
It was still close up to 1995
I'm 79 and those were the best years of my life. I FEEL SORRY THAT THE KIDS TODAY WILL NEVER EXPERIENCE THE WAY LIFE WAS LIKE THEN!!!!!!
Isn't that the truth
Amen brother!
I’m 43, and remember the stories that I was told. I’m officially jealous.
Don't remind me my mom and dad have told me many good stories from these days of what they did when they were teenagers and I feel so jealous
Damn I'm old. But I lived through it. And today I look around, and look back, and I feel like the luckiest guy in the world.
I'm 77 and I lived this in Riverside Calif early 1960's. Had a 1951 flat head v8 Mercury 2 door sedan that my girl and I used to cruise Magnolia Blvd in.
Love this movie!!!! Tells it like it was. Fond memories!!!!!
You got that right,Willy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am also 77. I spent 65-72 in Southern California. Those were the days.
I had a 51 two door merc, flat head, I mowed a older lady's yard all summer for. About 10 years back. It was in great shape until thieves jacked it.
@@shandonfarley342 Wayyyyyyyyyyyy cool,Shandon..........!
Magnolia Avenue! Lived there, and we also hung out at taco tia, on van Buren! Crushed market street as well!
These 50's records still burst with love, laughter and fun. They will never die.
yep. und damsls war deutschland noch deutschland. heute nur noch linksgrün versifft. und überall lungern nordafrikanische kulturbeglücker herum.
Still One of the best movies ever made, and it's 2019. God I would give a lot to live in those time's.
I can't tell you how much fun it was. I'm 78 now and saw myself in the movie.
I lived it! Raced my ‘67 camero. Best time ever to be alive. Too many restrictions today.
Hey Russ back then I was running a 66 Olds tri carb 442 w/4speed. most people don't know what that is. I think that year it won the C stock Nationals for NHRA
Damn I wish I had never sold that thing, I've never seen another one
Well, I did live it !! It was a BLAST !!
Not every day was the constant fun.
Things were more calm and steady than what people would like to believe.😁😁
Cruising around with your gal and listening to Wolfman Jack. Just doesn't get any better.
The 60's were the greatest, I was drag racing , drinking beer and jamming to the Wolfman...
We had Dick Biondi out of Chicago.
It WAS good.😎😎😎
And then it's Vietnam time!!!
Dave Hull
@@StinkFingerr Was he syndicated?
That makes a 70 year old man cry. Best time of my life. No other way to describe it. Very grateful to live in those times. And that's exactly the way I lived.
Spot on, Art.
Preach it brother 💯👏🏁
That’s when you could work on Cars
Art I just turned 67 yesterday & I know exactly how you feel my friend! Best of times
It's hell to be as old as I am.
But then, I had this...
Eat your hearts out.
Being old now is a fair price to pay for being young in the most innovative time in popular music. It isn't for sissies, but as long as we can hang on to those memories, I wouldn't trade it.
@@armadillotoe me neither !!!! Or maybe me too !!!
I put a jet engine in my Mustang last spring, and the chicks really dig me.
You make it sound as if you're the only person on Earth to be old enough to have lived in the late 50s/early 60s, but there are millions of US who lived it 🙄. It doesn't make you special just because you were there, TOO.
@@jb6712 just so you know, they have some treatments for dementia now. Just saying.
Cruised broadway in my 55 chevy. 283 punched to 301. Duntov cam t10 4 speed 411 positraction. Listened to Wholfman Jack. Those were the best times of my life.
chuck webster had a 55 in 86 same engine no one new of a 301 it was fast for a 16 year old. now it's 940 cubes and chrome Molly and 330 eighth mile runs .
Take Milner's 34 Hi Boy Anyday F that 55 chevy
Iconhulk it's a 32 .
the 55 as we all lnow was from 2 lane black top but it had the L89 vette 427 4spd i drove a 55 there not heavy. gear it up and you can be a sleeper.
chuck webster Broadway in Indiana.. there's a main street name Broadway were alot of people would race .
Good memories compared to where our country is now!((
Yeah, was awesome. Cold war, Vietnam, presidents who got shot, racism, not beeing able to write stupid shit online.
@@JohnnyC01 And you think you are superior? Let me tell you, not everybody was a racist back then by any means. Presidents in the US have gotten shot and doubtless will get shot in the future, too. Crazies know no barriers. And yeah, if you wrote stupid garbage like you do, back then you would have gotten your knuckles rapped for being so self-righteous. But that is this current generation that thinks rioting is acceptable behaviour. News flash! It ain't! Every generation is born into a world they didn't create and just try to make it a better place. This one thinks you make it better by being anarchists.
@@ToddSauveI remember cops beating the hell out of teenagers and the adults where racist white supremists and Rock and Roll was evil and immoral.
@@hotblonde9882 Yes, there always had been and always will be people like that. Of every colour. But I was alive back then and know what it was like.
And where were YOU in '62? I was still a toddler then. Did my 'cruising' in the mid-70's. Loved every minute of it no matter what I was drivin' at the time!
Hello how are you doing today
This movie changed my life ❤
Only movie in my lifetime I saw 5 times. Took two different girlfriends to see it. 3 times saw it by myself. True America.
That a boy cool 😎 man cool love it
Hello Robert how are you doing today
I lost count on how many times I saw this
movie…& I’m 73 !!!
I was there. You had to experience it to know how great those days were.
Hello Thomas how are you doing today ?
Was there & still am !!!😎
The 50's, 60's and early 70's were the greatest time for the car culture. Cruising the drag, hitting the local burger joints and late night street racing. Man, I wish I could do it all over again.!!!!!
That split second scene where the deuce coupe and the 55 are bumper to bumper, the buildings in the background are flying by, and you can hear the V8's giving everything they have, as the cars jockey for the lead position, is raw and without CGI effects. It will always be one of my favorite car movie scenes.
OG Flyer they was given em hell
Monster Inc. Yup.loved the duece coupe.Just a ultimate street rod.55 IS SWEET BUT THAT DUECE COUPE IS THE BEST.
^^^@Monster's Inc .. Yeah and He Was Hurtling Thru Running The Red Light Yes that Was Great, But Mine is The Race Scene in Bullet With Steve McQueen at The Wheel, Apparently it's The Best Car Action Race Scene Of All Cinema History Chur! :D] .v (Nmcfmamf) ..
don't forget BULLET ! Steve McQueen, he didn't have to act. He was the man. RIP
Great scene ...
Don't forget Steve McQeen he didn't have to act. He was the MAN. RIP
I love Steve McQueen!! The King of Cool!! He did some of the driving in Bullitt, until he missed his turn and had to back that mustang up and go at it again. That's when he about burned that right rear tire off of it. He was pissed off that he did that, but they kept it in the movie. After that happened he wasn't allowed to drive anymore. They were scared that he would hurt himself.
I was in the service back then when this movie came out. I had a 57 Chevy and we cruised until the mid-70s. A lot of people say we will never get those days back and they are correct. I can still smell the air on a Saturday night cruising the boulevard with the Sunoco 260 high octane exhaust spewing out of all our muscle cars. The sound of screeching tires, open headers and the police sirens! Oh yes those were the days!😎😍🤗😅
I would have loved to live back in those days. I love Hot Rods ,LOVE THEM!! I'm going to find me a 55 chevy one day, paint it black and pretend I'm Bob Falfa. Ride my wife in it and tell her, you're going to be hanging on for mercy once I get this sucker rolling!!
Oh yea, I’m feeling it 😍
Sure the hell were . They were the day's gone but never forgotten.
Sure can't do any of this today. Seatbelt laws, Graduated licenses.... and what 16/17 year-old today can afford a 4 or 5 year old car? Or afford the gas to just bomb around all night? 99% of what the kids did on a Saturday Night in 1962 is illegal now. And we wonder why the kids of today do nothing but stay at home, play video games and smoke dope!! They aren't allowed to DO anything anymore.
American Graffiti is in the top 10 most iconic and historically significant movies.....Ive seen it +100 times and never tire of watching it!
Hello Dennis how are you doing today ?

Those were the best of the best of days.

I wish you could have been there ... you would have loved it ...it was amazing !
We need a time machine
Simply the best movie ever made to recreate the early 60's in America, when Rock & Roll was in control, street rods ruled, and greasers were in charge in high school...
The greasers certainly weren't in charge at my high school.

@@mikeysmith3755 Hello how are you doing today ?
Only at daylight savings

Here in Chicago it was Skips Drive-in on North Ave. in Melrose Park. Those memories are seared in my brain. American Graffiti hit the nail right on the head. USA !!!
Model car boxes had skips on them
This movie has everything. A classic rock soundtrack, cool cars, and Harrison Ford. Who could ask for more. ?
I miss those days. But I still own my 1970 Z/28.
Great video! Unfortunately fewer Americans today can appreciate what we had back then. Thumb up.
yea like getting drafted to go to viet nam
It was a culture that will never be duplicated.
@@davidjones-vx9ju Get over it, soy boy.
@@Woozler554 over what?
Loud, proud and easy on the eye unlike the boxes on wheels made today to please the greens.
This is reality back in the early sixties,driving East 14 street , A&W 's just like in this flick,see all your

that will never return but for just a few years it was the Best Of Times.Sorry for the 2000 crowd
you will never enjoy anything like it!

Best time in America period!! Unbelievable how things have to come to where they are now in 2020. Just to go back and live one week in that era would be priceless.

@@franceliakarle_1 The sad part of course is that Vietnam wasn't too far off......

Using anamorphic lenses, 35mm film, vintage cars shot at night is just stunning.
I agree, it's a great looking movie 👍

My favorite movie of all time. I was 18 when this movie came out. Absolutely loved it! Cars, music, girls, what more can a guy want?
George Lucas nailed it...I was 17 at the time...untouchable movie
I was born in 1968 but was raised by a wonderful mother and I have tried to live my life by this era if you know what I mean and when I say era I mean the 50s will always be the best
Chuck Berry, the True King of ROCK AND ROLL.
Absolutely positively accurate
He was good but nope.
Buddy Holly...... thank God Waylon wasn't on that plane too.
@@galeaiken3841 yes yes thank God 🙏
Hardly. Buddy Holly was/ is the true king of Rock and Roll. Chuck Berry is # 2 though
This movie changed my life when i was 16. Only one dream. Go to America. I did it in summer 78 and found Grease. Bam. But this time is over. And America will never be as great and friendly again. Snif snif.

Electric and hybrid cars with built-in Wifi! 😝
I was 18 when this movie came out. Watched it at a drive-in in my 1964 Chevy Impala. After the movie, Main Street was insane. My town had 3000 people. Many nice cars. Was the best time of my life.
In high school had a 57 chevy gasser with a 409 4 speed 12 bolt 456 gears, oh how I wish I had that car today.
Told my 18 yr old son he needs to watch this movie to see what it was like to hang out and cruise!
Hello George how are you doing today
He probably wouldn’t
understand !!’
I was lucky enough to go to high school in a small town in the early 80s. It was like being transported back to the late 50s. We cruised “The Ave” every weekend, went to Arctic Circle, chased girls, waited outside the liquor store for someone who would buy us a bottle -- very good times I will remember forever!
So miss those days.................🙁
From the moment that beautiful duece coupe came on the movie screen I WAS IN LOVE.Nothing says 60s and street rod and ultra cool like a duece coupe with the engine showing LOUD AND PROUD.
True Americana! What a car! Miss those days like crazy. Shawn

Probably the one song that DEFINES ROCKNROLL..:):)
Hello harry how are you doing today
One of the best movies ever made
This movie was so well directed and the actors so good you would think it was actually filmed in the 50’s!
Produced by Francis Ford Coppola; directed by George Lucas. Those guys know a little about movie making!
It was the early 60's!
So many up and coming stars in this movie. It never ends who you will see. Suzanne Sommers in a classic T-Bird. Priceless.
Suzanne Somers in anything is awesome

She was🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@robletsdoit5886 Lol
And Richie Cunningham before he was Richie Cunningham and after he was Opie. I'm having a sometimers episode and can't remember the actors name .
Great movie and great song! I've said it before and I will say it again "If you got to grow up in the 50's,60's,70's & 80's YOU were blessed to live in the golden decades, the world will never be the same again!!". Rock on!!!
I grew up in the 70's in those areas used for filming the movie. The early part in a high school was Tamalpais High School in Mill Valley. Many of the scenes were on 4th street, San Rafael & they used Petaluma. I lived in Sausalito. I went to Tam high with Kathleen Quinlan who was the lead on the drama team & the school negotiated that she would have to be in the movie for them to use the gymnasium. She had a crush on my older brother, Gary, but he wouldn't go out w/her because she was too short. I used to give him a hard time about that after she got that role that started her career in Hollywood, lol.
Hell yeah those were the days man I miss them it's different now
@@aliceshaw8265 Sorry man. The music of the 60's and early 70's is the best ever.
Sure is different. Broads today stink compared to the broads then. Back then, they WANTED the attention of a guy, now in days, they pop off with this me to garbage.
Hello Darrell how are you doing today ?
Man where would music be without Chuck Berry? If you're not tapping your foot to this you fell asleep with the radio on. The get up & boogie that became part of rock n roll started right here with this man who imo is the real king of rock n roll
We didn't realize it at the time, but these would end up to be some of best memories of our lives. Sure be nice to go back.
It seems that way, but we tend to only remember the good things. If we could go back with the brain we have today, we could rule the world.

I remember in 65 when the Mustang came out and I envied the kids of the 70's and 80's who would be able to by these cars used with 289's and 4 on the floor already installed. We had to put in our Hurst shifters and Mickey Thompson mags ourselves.
I’m 29 but I damn sure wish I was alive in the 50’s, my favorite decade by far!

In college my Dad bought a used '63 Impala for me to use in college, a 327 four barrel. He didn't know much about cars and didn't know he had bought me a cool ride. I was on cloud nine the first time I picked up my girlfriend in it.
@@garybeauchamp3623 actually your dad probably wasn't as square as you think !
I started cruising because of this movie. Bought a 1974 Camaro brand new and cruised the El Camino Real between San Bruno and San Mateo in the bay area. I met great people and a few girlfriends in those times. Best years of my life.
My high school class graduated in 1963, the year this film portrays. It was our "Glory Days" and this movie is a gem really capturing a teenagers life at that time. The music, the documentary style of this movie is unique and never gets old. "Long live Rock "N Roll," to quote Chuck Berry's "School Days,"
Hello Gary how are you doing today
This, for those of us that still have our faculties together (no liberals allowed) ALWAYS the BEST! You are even luckier than I was, you graduated first. Were you in Vietnam? Yes or no, I thank you for being there
Not that it really matters, as it’s the same era, but this film takes place in 1962.
Damn you're living on the golden era of music... I wish I can live in 60s or 70s
@@MrPhotog7 The promotional line was "Where were you in '62?
What a fantastic time be in school and dancing to the great music of the 50s and the 60s. there will NEVER BE ANOTHER TIME LIKE THAT THAT WE ENJOYED BACK THEN.

So true, those times are gone. But were they great. We settled feuds by street racing on back roads and when whoever won race everything was cool. Kids today are in serious trouble, they can't settle anything without violence. I wish we could go back. I reminisce about those days. We were all lucky to live through those days

I'll take your Comet, your 63 Comet is a beautiful car, a real treasure, prefer a Ford over a Chevy any day of the week.
@@danbasta3677 I love both Ford and chevy both American muscle 💪 my Ford conet is a wagon with a 200 6 cylinder and a four speed top loader out of a 428 police intercepter big block my top loader will fit both small and big block ford, alot of small block top loaders only fit the small blocks I got it to mate with the engine with the correct bell housing I picked up from a mustang parts yard in orange CA. I had to do my homework on this subject, also im in the process of buying that aluminum head from vintage inlines thats the manifold that is removable from the head but its around 2500 .00 , the little 6 is also built with all TRW forged pistons rings and high volume millings oil pump, big cam shaft everything good , the block is out of a 1968 mustang and is a 7 main crank not the old 4 main crank , in 68 and after is when the blocks were better to build up the horse power in those straight 6, inlines. A friend of mine had a top loader but wouldn't sell it to me. So when he and I went to purchase my top loader he said oh cool it will fit both small and big bucks so now you and I can trade, I told him naw you wouldn't sell me your top loader when I needed one so now that I have the better one you all of a sudden want to trade naw il keep mine and you keep yours , the expression on his face was classic!!!! Sorry for the rambling but it is a cool little car , thanks again 😀
Gotta hand it to Chuck Berry he truly is the Grandfather of Rockabilly with his sound of swing, rock n roll and and little of blues.
The 50's will never get old. Love the rides.

Definitely an American classic.....I'm a little too young to have grown up in those times.....but definitely seen the movie a bunch of times.....👍👍...73 is my birth year

Hello Christopher how are you doing today
1948 is my birth year, and yes, I did live the
dream …,
The One & only Chuck Berry☝️
Godfather of Rock and roll
Loved this movie along with The Hollywood Knights.
1963. The last year of American Rock And Roll before the British Invasion. Look how young this unknown cast was in '73, besides Ron Howard of course! I was 4 when this came out. THE best movie soundtrack ever.
American Rock n Roll didn’t disappear after the Brits came and joined in on RnR. I think in someways the British Invasion took away from the great RnR in United States. Been listening to the old Doo Wop songs of 50’s - 60’s lately.
A movie, but a real time. The best of times.

Both the hero cars were powered by Chevy, like Old Man pointed out, , the Deuce has 327, the 55' had a L88 427.
@@GlassTopRX7 ; In reality, 1962, Chevy didn't have a 427 and the deuce most likely had a flathead. When Graffiti came out in 1973, the 55 was running a 454.
@@cobracharmer6178 you’re correct about the 55. However, the 32 probably would not have had a flathead, as most guys switched over to the OHV engines by the mid fifties. The Chrysler Hemi came out in 1951, the Ford Y Block came out in 1954, and the Chevy 283 came out in 1955. And, there were also other OHV engine options such as Oldsmobile, Cadillac, etc. So, anyone who had an early Ford in the early sixties who wanted to go really fast, or to race, had already replaced their flatheads with an OHV engine long before 1962.
I would like to have grown up in this Era, in 1970 I was 10 yrs old I can still remember the roadrunners, and Cudas, chargers ect.. but very happy I got to experience what I did, even into the 80s were great, wish we were back there now.
Reminds me of my dad when he was alive tearing up the guitar 🎸 singing and picking and hammering the sound down. Damn I miss my pops 🙏🏼💛💛
Hello jones how are you doing today
@@franceliakarle_1 stop putting this on every comment
When I saw this movie at a drive-in 1973 I never imagined that all those actors and actresses would go on to become famous in Hollywood.
they didn't know either.
It is well known ron Howard's career was pretty much at a standstill.
Memories are flooding back of how my Dad and I built a car like those

Hello jimmy how are you doing today
Can never get enough of the Classic American Graffiti. Relive the past every time I watch this flick. The era, the cars, the music. How can one ever tire of that? Keep on Hot Rodding!!
Hello William how are you doing today ?

I have my Dad's 55 chevy. He died in 2016. I grew up under these cars. Stoked that he passed it on
Please don't take it to Foose!
@@johngrepo9976 Lol!! No way, bro. He's very talented, but I don't need my truck turned into a $150k wonder car. They need to be loud & homebuilt
Cruised Sacramento in the late 50s in a semi-custom '57 Ford. Mel's, at 19th and J was the happening spot to hang out.
The "J street cruise" was a regular thing for quite a while, we did it in the 80's.

Hello David how are you doing today ?
I seen this movie at the theater with 3 of my friends, we were teenagers. It changed my life as I knew it.
Every generation should see this film.
How many of u in the Chicago area remember SKIPS out on North ave. What a time !!!
U could tell what a car was from a block away. O !! i think i'm gonna cry. I'm 78 in 2020 !!!
Thank God we didn't have cell phones. You wanted to meet, you met up in your cars. And yes, you knew which friend was coming from blocks away. So thankful to have grown up when I did and it wasn't too late. I was 16 in the early 70's.
And motorcycles by their sound. I’m 68.
The best car movie ever, I first saw this movie in1979 as a pre-feature to another and it stirred me more than the main feature film,
Kids today think F&F is the dogs, they have never seen this and they should, this is ALL about being young having fun in cars with yer buddies, something that seems to have been lost somewhere along the years, we had a bit of this here in U.K, in the 70's and 80's and today car show are all about Americana, unlike in the 70 and 80's when we had home grown custom's and hot rods.
Nothing better than this. Watched it a houndred times! Best regards from Warsaw, POLAND
1:28 yeah! long live the REAL american automobile!

One of the best movies ever. Never get tired of watching it. Love the cars and the music.
I watch it at least once a year, usually in the summer.

Hello Allan how are you doing today
I went on a date back in 1975 and this was the movie GREAT MOVIE loved it then love it now 🇺🇸👍🍔🌭😎
That movie had the most amazing cast. More future actors and actresses got their start in American Graffiti than any other film I know. Even the police officer that pulled Miller over was played by Tommy Lee Jones. What a great flick!
what did you liked about the flim?
@@mrteaparty6090 I grew up in that era. I thought the soundtrack was great, the town that it was filmed in Modesto, looked like the the times. The cars were awesome and it had some funny parts that reminded me of when I was younger. That's about it.
