The recently remastered film, with a brand-new sound mix, is being presented by Fathom Events and Universal Pictures with a trio of special screenings on Sunday, August 27 and Wednesday, August 30. The film’s great cast is led by Richard Dreyfuss and Ron Howard as recent high school graduates and best friends in Modesto, Calif., on their last evening of summer vacation before heading “back east” to begin college life.
The impressive ensemble also features Harrison Ford, Cindy Williams, Suzanne Somers, Mackenzie Phillips and Wolfman Jack. Its soundtrack includes such classics from the late Fifties and early Sixties as “Rock Around the Clock” (Bill Haley & the Comets), “That’ll Be the Day” (Buddy Holly & the Crickets), “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” (Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers) and “Do You Want to Dance” (Bobby Freeman).
