- Richard Linklater's 1993 teen classic Dazed and Confused is an under-rated gem. It's also one of my favorite movies ever made.
Footage from:
Dazed and Confused (1993)

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Slacker (1991)
American Graffiti (1973)

I grew up in Dallas and graduated in 1975. I was a hippie chick, not a prep or a jock or one of the popular crowd. We listened to those exact songs, we had those tight jeans we had to use a coat hanger to pull our zippers up, hung out with the guys who had pot. We even had the older guy that kept hanging around the High School after he graduated. 😂 He got one of the girls pregnant and she hid it under peasant blouses! We drove around so much! The main difference was we didn’t have initiations. The guys might have, I don’t know. When I first saw this film I could put a name to each character that matched people from my school. They even got the clothes right! And the song “I just wanna make love to you”-that song was played so much back then I almost got sick of it. My friends and I went to so many concerts. Tickets were cheap back then. Yeah, great movie, great time to grow up. Wish I could go back.
The film got one of the greatest cast lists in film history. Everybody and their grandmother before they were famous. It's ridiculous how on the money the cast really is....
Ikr? I watched it and it took me a few years before I realized that was Ben Affleck under all that hair lol.
Just like how universal didn't market Dazed and confused properly, CZcams clearly hasn't recommended this to enough people
Just found your channel through the Mad Men video, and by god you are a criminally underrated channel. Immediately subbed. Keep up this phenomenal video quality and I can guarantee you will find success soon! Good luck!
i watched this movie after seeing the title of this video and damn it made me soo happy, and i was also surprised to see that it was directed by the same director as of boyhood.
Great film essay!!! Thank you CZcams algorithm for this brilliant recommendation and introducing me to this awesome channel.
lady on youtube ive never seen your channel but now i have cause i COMPLETELY agree with you dazed and confused is also my favorite movie as well growing up i loved old music old cars fhe culture the clothss i looked back on that passed erra in a kindnof unearned unexpereinced nostalgia i graduate this may and allthough the music has changed and the cars are worse this movie is timeless because thats what teenage life is like, hell just last night i cruized arround in my 84 K5 Blazst blasting deff leappards 87 hysteria album hanging out with people i know talking about cars music and life it was pretty fun im a person who kinda hates repitition i cant watch a movie twice in a 4-6 month period i just cant, but i could watch this movie over and over and never get boared, i lifed with my grandparents in idaho for anfew years for a school i wanted to go to up there and every time they would go out to dinner because they had no internet i would buy mcdonalds and eat upstairs (something my grandma hates but im clean) and watch dazed and confused, never got old, i had always compaired dazed and confused to american graffiti because they realky have no plot, and othing really happens its cool finding another person who also sees that connection i havent had anybody talk abojt it othet than me
This movie will always have a special place in my heart. I was born in 76, so these kids were my parents. What makes it special was one time that I watched it in 96. I had just joined the Air Force and was in Tech School at Sheppard AFB in Texas. A group of us had gotten the movie and settled down in the day room of our dorm to watch it. I was laying on the couch with the girl I was seeing at the time laying with me. What I remember most about it was that towards the end of the movie I remember looking up and suddenly the day room was full of people. Everyone was glued to the screen. It's one of those rare moments in time that you can look back and remember it like it was one of those memory balls in the movie Inside Out and you play it back in your head over and over. I think it's also a special time/viewing because being in Tech School, this was the transition between Basic Training and our first assignments. The overwhelming majority of us were between 18 and 20. So in a way it felt like a group of high school students hanging out.
Plus since this movie was my parents, thanks to my dad I was already familiar with the entire soundtrack. Still one of the best movie soundtracks ever.
My favorites are this one, Children of Men, Dr. Strangelove, and 2049,
I loved the intro to this and I enjoyed your Euphoria video as well. You make amazing videos 🙂
same here
That universality is an interesting thing aspect of the movie's appeal, because it definitely has its limits.
My early Gen X parents showed it to me when i was a kid, and so many contemporary 70s aspects of the movie like the hazing or the driving culture just seemed completely alien. Once i was a little older, I gave it another chance and loved it, and one small part of that appeal was that it kind of served as a window into the culture my parents grew up with(though they're a little younger than the kids in the movie), what was different and what was the same. I think Mad Men did the same thing for a lot of Gen Xers with their Silent Gen parents, maybe even for Matt Weiner himself.
Later, I showed this movie to a friend of mine from China, a fellow Before trilogy fan, and she bounced off it really hard. I think it was that same alienness, the kind of strange culture shock of a movie made to be relatable feeling bizzarre.
Anyway, great video! I found you from yhe Mad Men one and subscribed; can't wait to see what you've got next!
One of mine too Hazel!
My favorite too :)... and so are YOU, my new favorite :)
You’ve convinced me to watch this, sounds great!
Behind every good man there's a woman, and that woman was Martha Washington, man, and every day, George would come home, she'd have a big fat bowl waiting for him, man, when he'd come in the door. She was a hip, a hip, hip lady, man.
Nice work! Subscribed
What a slept on channel. Great content.
Saw this in the theater. Fun movie. Had a ton of future stars in it. Like school ties or the outsiders. Good flicks all. Matthew McConaughey s first movie. In 3 years he was up for a dam oscar in a time to kill. Now that doesnt happen all that often
I enjoyed your video. I believe this movie nails the uncertainty of your teenage years and the fun!
Alright, alright, alright !!!
This movie is so awesome, and it's a real hit of nostalgia for me. Back in the olden times when I was a mere dipshit barely into my 20's a few friends and I would watch this or have it on in the background while we did what we did best: smoked weed and drank alcohol. Jason London was so fucking cool in this, he's just one of those guys who you might see around school who was good at everything but didn't have an ego about it and always had something positive to say to anyone. Parker Posey was terrifying in this, or at least to the teenage version of myself. As a teen it can be hard see deeper than what's at face value, and looking for anything beyond is just a mess. So at school if you have someone like Posey there people like me might think, "Holy fuck, this girl is totally fucked, give a wide berth," because due to the lack of experience I know I wouldn't understand what can truly lie in the depths of a person. I could barely know the depths of ordering a fucking pizza.
I almost forgot how much I love this movie, it really is fantastic. Didn't know any of that about the production woes, though. This was great, you managed to pack in a lot of facts in such a short time! (Also forgot Linklater directed School Of Rock, bout to watch that again now, glad it got the mention in the vid fuckin A)
great video!
I’m a little (or a lot) older than this host. Fast Times still ranks as my favourite but Dazed and Confused is a close second. (If I’m leaving out Do The Right Thing and a few others.) great breakdown of it. 👍🏼
Congrats in advance for 2K subs
The spiritual 1980's follow-up, EVERYBODY WANTS SOME, is also awesome
All the stuff you see in movie, me and my friends did, same attitudes, same riding around, blasting rock music, looking for trouble.
Slacker isn’t actually Linklater’s first film, It’s Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books is. Give it a chance, you might really like it!
Have you ever seen American Grafitti? Heads above this, except, of course, for Matthew McConaughey.
American actor
Is this the UK version or the American version? Also your editing is amazing
There's a UK version?
Probably one of the most quotable movies of all time.
Never heard of this movie.
Have you seen “Human Traffic”?
You’re welcome 😎🥞
I like your voice and Mad man scene analysis was really good. But saying any moviebbuff would pick Nolan movie is pure shit. He is one of those red flags between high end and middle ground.
Dazed & Confused is undeniably my favorite movie ever 🥲 For all the reasons you listed and beyond!
