THE LAST PICTURE SHOW (1971)

The 70's Rivers, Day 9

The Last Picture Show (1971)
This is still one of my favorite movies. Nostalgic, well told and shot in glorious black and white. I would have picked this over The French Connection for Best Picture that year, but nobody asked me.

The Bogdanavich River
Of all the rivers that ran strongly during the decade, yet dried up quickly, none of the drop-off seemed quite as severe as The Bogdanavich River.
