The Last Picture Show The Last Picture Show

Peter Bogdanovich / 1971 / 118 min / English

A surprisingly frank, bittersweet drama of social and sexual mores in small-town America.

Early 1950s. Enduring that awkward period of life between boyhood and manhood, Sonny in Duane pass their time with the movie house, football, and girls. Jacey is Duane's steady, wanted by every boy in school. The boys are torn between a future somewhere out there beyond the borders of town or making do with their inheritance of a decrepit movie house. As high school graduation approaches, they learn some difficult lessons about love, loneliness, and jealousy. With the closure of the movie house, the boys feel that a stage of their lives is closing. They stand uneasily on the threshold of the rest of their lives.

"We had to use black and white. Color made the town look too ... pretty, I guess. And one of the things in the back of my mind was the hope that maybe we could help break that silly taboo against black and white. A lot of pictures shouldn't be shot in color. Orson Welles told me once that all the great performances had been in black and white. That is almost literally the truth. There's something mysterious and enriching about black and white. Color is too realistic."
(Peter Bogdanovich)

Notre-Dame-des-Landes, a predominantly agricultural area in northwest France, was occupied by squatters in the early 2000s to prevent the construction of a regional airport. A community of activists and farmers, twice forcibly evicted by the state, finally achieved the project’s cancellation in 2018. Their victory is the most successful example of the French anti-development movement known as ZAD (Zone à défendre). Today, ZAD serves as a national and international organisational platform for activists, and in 2021, it gave rise to a new environmental movement, Les Soulèvements de la Terre.
