continues a season celebrating Hollywood's 'new wave' directors of the 70s, starring Richard Dreyfuss, Ronny Howard

A small Californian town: 1962. Four friends - about to leave for college - get together for a typical night's entertainment, centred on chasing girls and baiting the local police. This free-wheeling, highly-entertaining film has a memorable music score - made up of 50s' rock hits - which did much to ensure the movie's sensational box-office success.
