Join us as we travel south to examine life in a couple of small towns. FIrst we're in a nondescript mid-Texas town in 1976, in Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused (1993), a bittersweet comedy that follows a bunch of teenagers through the first day of summer vacation.
Next, we move to the Florida Panhandle, but don't worry, it won't be crowded because it's the off-season. Ruby in Paradise, written and directed by Victor Nunez and also from 1993, gives us the story of a young woman who's trying hard to make it on her own.
COMING ATTRACTIONS:
In our next episode, we're taking a look at three different versions of Little Women (with a nod at the fourth) and examining each one's approach to the story.
