4 stars very good racing film
This feature film played theatres in the early 70's. Very good depiction of early funny-car racing and life on the road for the Dunn family racing team.

5 stars The way back machine
The cheesy 70's music is almost removed from your mind, as the camara pans through the pits and reminds you of how it was. The beautiful simplicity of how is was rushes through your mind, and the feelings of races past, and cars little remembered pop into your head and suddenly your a kid again.

4 stars 6 second trip down memory lane
I always wanted to be a funny car pilot, and this film reminded me why. I had forgotten about some of these cars and am excited about seeing them all again. The movie itself is typical 1970's production and would not probably capture the interest of anyone other than the person who lived thru this era. But I enjoyed it and I still get chills when I see these old cars leave the line.

Set in 1962; Produced and released in 1973. AMERICAN GRAFFITI presents a powerful collage of youth on the brink of maturity just before the assassination of J.F.K.. Based on George Lucas's own teenage hot-rodding days in Modesto, California, this brilliant, bittersweet comedy inspired numerous other productions, including the long-running TV series HAPPY DAYS. Lucas's second feature film (following THX 1138), AMERICAN GRAFFITI contains an early screen appearance by Harrison Ford, who would figure heavily in the director's ...

THE RULES OF ATTRACTION, based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis, stars James Van Der Beek (DAWSON'S CREEK) as Sean Bateman, campus drug-dealer and 24-hour-a-day reveler at affluent Camden College. A senior at the New England school, Sean is caught up in a nihilistic love triangle. He has a crush on Lauren (Shannyn Sossamon), an arty virgin who is saving herself for a vapid, vacationing ex-boyfriend, while Paul (Ian Somerhalder), a beautiful bisexual, has a crush on Sean. Every night is a party at Camden, where students celebrate with a "Dress to Get Screwed" theme and teachers appear more often on the dance floor than in the classroom. Director Roger Avary conveys the individual angst of the three lovelorn main characters in a series of vignettes, using their different perspectives to weave together ...
