Dazed and Confused

“One of the things about Dazed and Confused that's so terrific is that every time you watch it…the characters are like your friends and it's like your hanging out with them again.”

Quentin Tarantino

Actor, Cinematographer, Director, Producer, Writer

“I've always been a fan of time travel and I remember going to Dazed and Confused and being transported to that time period. I just lost it. I really felt what it was to be in that time period because, although I'd been a small kid, I definitely remember the '70s.”

“A film that seems to get more important every year, and I don't mean that facetiously. I don't think it's actually possible to make a flick about high school in the 1970s that surpasses Linklater's.”

Diablo Cody

Writer

“I first saw Dazed and Confused the day I got my driver's license. It was like an instruction film on what was in store for me. This movie was my exact high school experience if you just replace Kiss with Phish.”

Bill Hader

Actor, Director

“Rick Linklater made every actor in it a partner and as a director myself, I've really latched onto that lesson and tried to continue with that.”

Ben Affleck

Actor, Director, Writer

“It's one of those movies where you feel sad when it's ending like you feel like oh the party's over like you really feel like you don't want to leave the party.”

St. Vincent
