erm... Back To The Future? or American Graffiti?

[Buscemi]

It's a work-in-progress. I've been constantly editing it.

Also, I wouldn't count American Graffiti. None of it takes place in a high school.

No Footloose? Come one, the warehouse dance scene should get it placed on this list alone! Or the tractor chicken scene...riveting stuff.
