In one of the final scenes of Richard Linklater’s breakthrough hit Dazed and Confused, Matthew McConaughey’s now-iconic sagacious stoner Wooderson confronts the film’s central figure, Randall “Pink” Floyd (Jason London), about the compromises he must make to join the high school football team. After reading the conduct pledge aloud to Randall and their group of friends while the group relaxes and smokes after a long night of partying, Wooderson directly and playfully expresses the motto for his own life, which also serves as the thesis for Linklater’s filmography — “The older you get, the more rules they get you to follow. You just gotta keep livin’, man! L-I-V-I-N.”
