    Hi. My name is Michael, I'm 17 and, despite what my new screename says, I am not unfamiliar with the forums. This is the 2nd time I've posted a thread of this ilk on a forum but I was never able to get much help so hopefully this time will be different. You see, I am a huge fan of GL's: Star Wars, Indiana Jones; you name it. However, American Graffiti would have to be my all-time favorite movie; I just love anything having to do with the era surrounding the 1950s: the music, the clothing, the cars; everything. I guess you could say I'm a true old-fashioned type at heart. On that note, I have been looking for some info regarding a minor yet particular prop/costume from AG: the boots worn by Paul Le Mat's Character, John Milner. From what I can tell they are a brown type of cowboy boot but I have yet to get a good picture or screencap to see the detail. I am looking to buy a smimiliar pair if possible and knowing what they look like would give me a much better idea of what to purchase. I'm not so much trying to make a costume (white t-shirt and jeans, c'mon) as add to my already immense collection of vintage/ timeless cool threads and boots. So, if anyone happens to know anything about them or can get a semi-decent image of them I'd love to see it. In the words of Jar Jar Binks, everyone's favorite SW character, "Any help here would be hot." Thanks.

    Yeah thats a pretty specific question. Wish i could provide you with anything helpful. Your best bet would be to see if there are any publicity photos that show the boots.

    I can't help with the boots, but I would have to agree that American Graffiti is the best film and I'm not just saying Of Gearge Lucas's I'm saying best movie of ALL TIME! Citizen Cain NO! Gone with the Wind NO! American Graffiti all the way. I'll see if I can help out with the boot situation.
