Why this is the answer (spoilers)

Dazed and Confused is Richard Linklater's 1993 ensemble comedy following Texas teenagers on the last day of school in 1976. Its cast of future stars includes Matthew McConaughey, whose 'alright, alright, alright' became a career signature.

The clips are a warm wash of 70s cars, denim and afternoon light, which can look like any period teen film for the first reveals. The hazing rituals and the party at the moon tower are the distinctive beats. If every clip radiates aimless end-of-school energy with a classic-rock feel, this is the title to type.
