Dazed and Confused

Richard Linklater wrote and directed Dazed and Confused, a 1993 American coming-of-age comedy film. The mayhem of a bunch of unruly teens in Austin, Texas, celebrating the last day of high school in 1976 is chronicled in this coming-of-age film. The graduating class gathers at a famous pool club for an unplanned keg party, but star football player Randall "Pink" Floyd (Jason London) has sworn to concentrate on the championship game and refrain from drinking. Meanwhile, the incoming freshmen struggle to escape being hazed by the seniors, particularly Fred O'Bannion, the cruel bully (Ben Affleck).

The film failed to make money at the box office, making less than $8 million in the United States. Despite this, the film has become a cult classic and has received critical and financial acclaim over the years. On Entertainment Weekly's list of the 50 Best High School Movies, it came in third. It was also named 10th on the magazine's "Funniest Movies of the Last 25 Years" list.
