Overview

Cinema ‘76 films feature stories set in 1976 followed by a post-screening discussion exploring each film’s themes and cultural context.

Dazed and Confused (Richard Linkletter, 1993, 103 minutes) is a coming-of-age film that follows teenagers in a small Texas town on the last day of school in 1976. Richard Linklater’s breakout, and a launching pad for many future stars, captures the boredom, angst, and excitement of youth. waiting for something to happen.

Janet Maslin of The New York Times wrote, "Dazed and Confused has an enjoyably playful spirit, one that amply compensates for its lack of structure". Desson Howe of The Washington Post, wrote, "Dazed succeeds on its own terms and reflects American culture so well, it becomes part of it". In her review for The Austin Chronicle, Marjorie Baumgarten gave particular praise to Matthew McConaughey's performance: "He is a character we're all too familiar with in the movies but McConaughey nails this guy without a hint of condescension or whimsy, claiming this character for all time as his own"
