High school is a different experience
for everyone. For some, it is the high point of their lives, a time
when they feel like kings ruling over their domain. For others, it's
a difficult time filled with awkwardness and agony. Regardless of
what you're high school experience is, most people look back on it
fondly with a nostalgia that block out most of the more painful
moments. It's a time where we come of age, discover who we are, and
step into adulthood. This is a truth understood in Dazed and
Confused, where we follow
different high schoolers on the last day of class and the long night
that follows. Each of the characters appears to be having a great
time, drinking beer and smoking weed, hanging out at various local
establishments, but many of them are to focused on the various small
problems in their life to truly enjoy themselves.
