series Ellen Burstyn
Directed by Peter Bogdanovich | 1971
With Timothy Bottoms, Jeff Bridges, Cybill Shepherd, Ellen Burstyn, Ben Johnson
"Mainstream cinema at its most empathetic, attuned to real economic anxieties… and flattering to an audience's intelligence. It's meant to make you feel sad for what's lost, but a vitality throbs through it."
—Time Out New York
Three teenagers (Bridges, Bottoms, and Shepherd) come of age in a dusty dying Texas town in this 1950s-set American New Wave landmark. Burstyn got her breakthrough (and an Oscar nomination) playing a past-her-prime housewife staving off boredom with an extramarital affair, while Bogdanovich conjures a vanished era of pool halls, jukeboxes, and revival houses in luminescent monochrome.
