Review of Dazed and Confused (1993) by Cody B — 21 Aug 2013
Along with THE KARATE KID, DAZED AND CONFUSED is one of my favorite high school films. With all due respect to John Hughes, I don't think he has ever captured the school dynamic like Richard Linklater has, nor do I think he(Hughes) has much skill when it comes to pacing.
Save a kind of awkward performance from Wiley Wiggins, DAZED AND CONFUSED is amazing. Sticking within the time span of one-and-a-half days, the film covers multiple characters stories with a masterful pace.
But what makes the film work is the characters themselves.
