This week Kael Your Idols welcomes filmmaker Levi Butner to discuss George Lucas’s mega-hit American Graffiti. The film is, in a sense, the director’s first prequel - showing a day in the life of some Modesto teens in 1962 way way back before those pesky social changes came to define the decade. Topics include: similarities to Dazed and Confused, Lucas’s incest obsession, and what it takes to get a film made on a budget.
