Favorite scenes in American Graffiti?


Mine is when the rear axle falls off of the police car as the police car goes airborne, the scene where John Miilner and Bob Falfa first meets up and the scene where Toad is trying to score liquor.

yes great scenes. i agreed.

i like anything with terry toad and john millner. both character are played great actor and that make difference to these classic film. i like both these great actors very much.

if american graffit come today then terry toad and john milner are play by paul crudd and seth rogan and both these actors are shit and they make american graffiti shit film and not classic film.

American Graffiti is one film I don't want to see remade that's for sure, I loved the scenes with Toad and Milner, I felt they were the most fun to watch, I noticed that Steve didn't appear in the halfway portion of the film as much as the other guys.

"I loved the scenes with Toad and Milner, I felt they were the most fun to watch"

yes i agree with what you say. charles martin smith and paul le mat are good actor. lucas have real talents for spotting good actors in his early films. he know how to choose actor who fit role and give life to movie. he did same with star wars.

the various colorful character you find in american graffiti are what it make it interesting film to watch and have good times with.

also the filming style of this film is reminisce of original 1977 star wars film. very retro 70s/60s feel, very uniques. if you like star wars then american graffit is like prequel in terms of tone and filming style.

it is shame about 'more american graffiti'. i could not finish this film. terrible!!

The Freshman Hop!
Curt seeing his dream girl for the first time.
All the driving on the Strip scenes.
Toad trying to score liquor, for certain.
Everyone heading out of town at dawn to watch Milner race Falfa.

I forgot to mention the racing scene with Milner racing Falfa out of town, I remember laughing my ass off when the wolf was howling after the clerk shoots at the robber.

Every John and Carol scene.

And every Toad and Debbie scene.

Favourite line though is. 'You're disgusting! I told you never to talk about that. Get out of my car!"
