Or The Godfather, it even had an impact on the real Mafia, how they talk, act, and dress; that info came via the FBI. And is still probably the most quoted movie of all time.Street racing has been around for a very long time, especially in Southern California, going back to at least the 1950's and a lot of people were well aware of it, there were similar movies about kids street racing made in the 50's. Any place you had kids and cars you had street racing, it's an old American tradition. That's even where nascar has it's roots. It's not anything new the Fast and Furious movies were just an update.

And the light was broken in the deep end.. oh and it was night, so the water had weird reflections in it from the moon.. and I had just seen jaws, plus shark week was on discovery channel.. I was too afraid to go into an unlit pool.. thanks jaws, steal my childhood.
