Dazed and Confused 4K UHD The Criterion Collection US Edition

It’s the last day of school in 1976, and for a group of Texas teenagers the only thing that matters is making it through the night. Incoming freshmen face brutal initiation rituals, seniors cruise the streets looking for parties, and everyone else drifts between beer, music, romance and the uncertain prospect of what comes next.

Richard Linklater’s Dazed and Confused is an endlessly quotable, music-filled snapshot of teenage life that helped define the modern hangout movie. Featuring an extraordinary early-career ensemble, including Jason London, Parker Posey, Ben Affleck, Milla Jovovich and Matthew McConaughey, the film turns one seemingly ordinary night into a funny, affectionate portrait of youth, friendship and rebellion.
