Man, I love Last Picture Show so much it almost hurts to watch

his hits were before my time and i didn’t know much about him, but i grew up with irreconcilable differences and loved it. 

then, about 20 years ago, i read “easy riders, raging bulls” and got to the part about him, the lps, cybil shepherd, and polly platt, and i was like holy fucking shit i know this story. 

and yeah, he pulls.

I wanted to punch him in his face every time he drank out of the 4 liter water bottle in the stocking water bottle holder

His arrogance ruined his career, he turned down The Godfather, The Exorcist and Chinatown. Billy Wilder once said “It isn’t true that Hollywood is a bitter place divided by hatred, greed and jealousy. All it takes to bring everyone together is another flop by Peter Bogdanovich.” Good on the Sopranos tho.

The Turner Classic Movies podcast revolving around him was really good. It's still on youtube, season one of The Plot Thickens. The extras at the end are old Bogdanovich interviews of legendary directors and actors is awesome. 

He wasn't a favorite director of mine by any stretch, but a couple of really good ones, especially Paper Moon. Doesn't seem like a great person. But he's been a great historian of some of the best Hollywood has to offer in its best era. He does really good audio commentaries, like the one he did for The Searchers video release.

Have never watched LPS, love Paper Moon.

I envy you.  LPS is damn beautiful.

As much as I liked LPS and Paper Moon, I simply didn't get any of the other PB flicks, other than Mask, which I thought was good but have never wanted to rewatch.  PB really knew his stuff and his interviews are great, as was the TCM podcast about him.

One of the best interviews I heard of PB was when he was talking about the tragedy of the lost Magnificent Ambersons.  How when Orson Welles original was screened, 90% of the viewers didn't like it and 10% thought it was the greatest movie they had ever seen.   And then the studio destroyed Welles original.

Guy really loved the movies.

His Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers documentary was great too.

Given what he accomplished the arrogance is understandable.  Even if you throw out his movie directing career, he did a lot. 

Great interview with Marc Maron (Good god, Maron is a great interviewer and PB a great interviewee).

This guy just took the bull by the horns and did shit.

He was a good interview on Talking Sopranos as well. You got the idea that he and Imperioli could’ve talked old Hollywood for hours.

I rewatched LPS a few days ago, greatness.

And 21 yo Cybill Shepherd was very fetching.

Yeah, I had forgotten that he directed that.
