Made in 1973, but set in 1962, the 110-minute movie
American Graffiti, written and directed by George Lucas and produced by Francis Ford Coppola, featured a lot of cruising around town in cars, mostly at night and was redolent of American coming-of-age culture of both the period it was set and, to a fair extent, of the time it was made.
There are plenty of classic cars to be seen in the movie, either as lead character or as background cars, and relatively few anachronisms.
