  Speaker 2: a pilot, the Coming of Age story starring Richard Dreyfuss,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: with a title sharing the kind of art Banksy is
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: known for. It was American Graffiti. So there was a
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: resurgence of popularity for nineteen fifties Americana, which included greasers
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: and sock hoops and that sort of stuff, and the
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: film helped stoke that nostalgia I guess for that time period.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: And then Happy Days, which had started off with a
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: pilot that wasn't really picked up, but it was added
• 18:50

• 18:55
  Speaker 2: an episode they retooled that pilot that had got you know,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: prom there, and after American Graffiti and the success of
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Ron Howard, who was also in American Graffiti. It led
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: to them picking up Happy Days, and after a year
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: of kind of not really doing well in the ratings,
• 19:15

  Speaker 2: and then it really took off and then it jumped the.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Shark the Fonzi factor.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: But yeah, there was a whole there's a whole little
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: period of nostalgia for the fifties culture, and that wasn't
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the only thing to benefit from it. But a lot
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: of people say Happy Days probably wouldn't have happened if
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: it wasn't for American Graffiti, directed by George Lucas, and
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: that's what made him an instant millionaire because the film
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: performed well. It was nominated for an Oscar for several Oscars,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: five I think, and really outperformed its budget. And then
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: he they said three hundred thousand dollars and set it
• 20:03
