THE LAST PICTURE SHOW

Peter Bogdanovich | 1971 | 118 MINS

USA

A sublime study of sexually charged ennui in 1950s Texas. A group of high schoolers come of age in a bleak, isolated, atrophied town that is slowly dying, both culturally and economically.

In Detail

Sonny (Timothy Bottoms) and Duane (Jeff Bridges) are best friends. The handsome Duane is dating local beauty, Jacy (Cybill Shepherd), while Sonny is having an affair with the coach's wife, Ruth (Cloris Leachman).

As graduation nears, both boys contemplate their futures. While Duane eyes the army and Sonny takes over a local business, each boy struggles to figure out if he can escape this dead-end town and build a better life somewhere else. An American classic in every sense.
