The Last Picture Show
Here's the film that Cinematheque patrons chose to be the last one we show in our home of the past 29 years, the Russell B. Aitken Auditorium at 11141 East Boulevard in University Circle. (The Cinematheque moves into a new theater at 11610 Euclid Avenue on Saturday, August 1.) Peter Bogdanovich's celebrated and evocative 1971 coming-of-age story is set in a small, dying north Texas town during 1951 and 1952. There's more sex and drama in this small, close-knit community than you might imagine. The star-studded cast includes Timothy Bottoms, Jeff Bridges, Cybill Shepherd, Ellen Burstyn, Eileen Brennan, Randy Quaid, and Oscar winners Cloris Leachman and Ben Johnson. (Both won for this movie.) This 118-minute movie will be projected from 35mm at 7:00 pm. At 6:30 pm, a slide show assembled by Cinematheque projectionist Les Vince that chronicles the Cinematheque's 29 years in Aitken Auditorium will be shown.
