The Big Picture Richard Linklater is one of the greatest filmmakers of the past 30 years, and if his upcoming Hit Man is any indication, he hasn't lost his touch when it comes to finding the joy and spontaneity in different people getting to know each other and coexisting between each other's bubbles.
What Is 'Dazed and Confused' About? Dazed and Confused is set at Lee High School in 1976 Texas. The film follows different groups of students on the last day of the school year, the most important being senior quarterback Randall 'Pink' Floyd , stoner Slater , over aged flameout Wooderson , and first-year student and baseball hopeful Mitch .
'Dazed and Confused' Is the Perfect Example of Richard Linklater's Filmmaking Genius One of the greatest attributes of Linklater as a filmmaker is how collaborative he is and how open he is to the fact that things change, filmmakers can't always work according to a perfect plan, and they have to adjust to what happens around them.
It also shows how experimental Linklater has always been. While he is perceived by most people as a wholesomely traditional filmmaker in his commitment to telling intelligent stories of grown up people experiencing complicated emotions, a genre that people constantly claim is endangered in today's entertainment landscape, he is arguably as forward-thinking in his approach to form and time as Christopher Nolan gets praise for being.
The Legacy of 'Dazed and Confused' Dazed and Confused has gone down as one of the most influential teen films of all time, full of quotable moments and pop culture references that still have legs.
