American Graffit vs. Cooley High

[MickeyMac]

Which did you like better??


I gotta go with Graffiti myself because I thought the script was better and look at the cast. One thing about Cooley High they goofed on. This movie takes place in Chicago yet all the music in the movie is Motown. Not saying black Chicago teenagers didnt listen to Motown, but they were also listening to local stuff like The Impressions, Major Lance, Alvin Cash etc., but none of that was featured in the film.

Graffitti to me was just a bunch of kids goofing off. Cooley High had a lot of that too, but there was an underlying story. I'll never figure out how Preach got what's-her-face though. The end sequence with Preach running through the cemetary to "I'll be there" was one for the books. "This one's for all the brothers who ain't here".
