America, 1976. The last day of school. Bongs blaze, bell-bottoms ring, and rock and roll rocks. Among the best teen films ever made, Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused eavesdrops on a group of seniors-to-be and incoming freshmen. A launching pad for a number of future stars, Linklater's first studio effort also features endlessly quotable dialogue and a blasting, stadium-ready soundtrack. Sidestepping nostalgia, Dazed and Confused is less about "the best years of our lives" than the boredom, angst, and excitement of teenagers waiting . . . for something to happen.

Release Notes on Restoration
Dazed and Confused
Dazed and Confused is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1. Black bars at the top and bottom of the screen are normal for this format. Director Richard Linklater and director of photography Lee Daniel supervised this high-definition digital transfer, which was created on a Spirit 4K Datacine from 35mm interpositive. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, and scratches were removed using the MTI Digital Restoration. To maintain optimal image quality through the compression process, the picture on this dual-layer DVD-9 has been encoded at the highest-possible bit rate for the quantity of materials included.
The soundtrack was mastered at 24-bit from the original stems. Plus, Melba Toast is packin’ 411 posi-trac outback, 750 double pumper Edelbrock intakes, bored over 30, 11 to 1 pop-up pistons, turbojet 390 horsepower. We’re talkin’ some fuckin’ muscle.
