Okay so the film is more than a bit outdated, but it is still a memorable film as it captures America in the 1950's with adolescents beginning to experiment with marijuana and heroin while drag racing, and of course the cliques with the geeks and the cool kids. The 1950's cars are worth watching the film alone for. There is actually a crime investigation underway, and the mob represented by the bad guy drug dealer named "Mr. A" as the mysterious head honcho who is careful with whom he lets into his inner circle.
I enjoyed the film from a nostalgic perspective with the "cool lingo" of the period such as describing marijuana as reefers and/or Mary Jane. The drag racing, the dancing, the music and of course the hip clothes man.
I give it a decent 7 out of 10 IMDB rating.
