Return of the Graffiti cast fuels a new chapter
Hollywood AP reports most of the original Graffiti stars reunite for More American Graffiti, except Richard Dreyfuss. Paul Le Mat, Cindy Williams, Candy Clark, Charles Martin Smith, Mackenzie Phillips, Bo Hopkins, and Ron Howard headline with Wolfman Jack on the soundtrack. The sequel follows four interwoven stories, lacks the original cohesion, and aims for a different tone. Candy Clark discusses pride in both films and loyalty and money driving the reunion.
