The Cine-Files

Peter Bogdanavich’s Last Picture Show is simultaneously a tribute to the great directors of Hollywood’s Golden Age and a true film of the seventies with incredible performances from Cloris Leachman, Ben Johnson and Ellen Burstyn. With its stark black and white imagery, frank and often upsetting depictions of sex and lives which seems as real as the Texas town where it was filmed, The Last Picture Show is a true masterpiece and John and Steve have a fantastic conversation about it.
