'Dazed and Confused' Reunion: Original Cast Reads Script for Voto Latino Fundraiser

Named the fourth greatest stoner movie of all time by CelebStoner, Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused continues to resonate with movie fans and potheads 27 year after its 1993 release. To encourage people to vote in the current presidential election, members of the original cast got together recently to do a table read of the script as a fundrasier for the Voto Latino Foundation. It was the first cast reunion since the 10th anniversary in Austin in 2003.

From the CelebStoner review: "The last day of high school in Austin in 1976 is time for hijinks and a lot of weed. Like Diner, many of the actors in this stoner comedy classic went on to big careers, including Matthew McConaughey, Ben Affleck, Parker Posey, Rory Cochrane, Joey Lauren Adams and Milla Jovovich.
