Love 'Dazed and Confused'? Here Are 10 More Great Hangout Movies

Richard Linklater's 1993 cult classic Dazed and Confused is not just a hangout movie. It's a very specific kind of hangout movie. Set in 1976, 17 years prior to the film's release, the film is a casual nostalgia trip for a very specific demographic, as well as a window into another time for those who were not there to experience it. It features a broad range of characters, each one authentic in their own right. And while Dazed feels uniquely from the mind of Linklater, there are other films released both before and after it that contain similar DNA. Here are 10 hangout movies that feature a similar style, tone, pace, environment and ensemble of characters, for those too dazed and confused to look for themselves.
