Review of The Making of 'American Graffiti'

Though this documentary is beginning to age, it's still a great treat for anyone who's a fan of the film. I really enjoyed hearing about how each actor and actress attained their role and the different hijinks they got up to on set, as well as George's lax attitude and encouragement of them to veer off from the script and truly make their part their own. I was really surprised to hear how much trouble he had getting this film funded and created. I'm also surprised that George had enough forethought to document this time period only eleven years or so after its time. To put that in perspective, here in 2021, that'd be like writing a timepiece script for 2010... Pretty weird, huh? My only complaint is that George never made another film akin to this one.
