Released in 1971 to critical acclaim and public controversy, Peter Bogdanovich's The Last Picture Show garnered eight Academy Award nominations (including Best Picture) and was hailed by many as the most important work by a young American director since Citizen Kane. A surprisingly frank, bittersweet drama of social and sexual mores in small-town Texas, the film features a talented cast led by Jeff Bridges, Cybill Sheperd and Timothy Bottoms. Cloris Leachman and Ben Johnson each won Oscars for their moving supporting roles. Available for the first time on DVD, this modern classic is a must-have for every movie lover.
