I am late today because I just got back from filling my antibiotic prescription at PAMF. This morning I met Helen and Jim, Joan and David, and Vanessa at Starbucks. Afterward I did my weekly Safeway shopping. Last night after the Friday night PBS shows I watched a DVD of the movie The Last Picture Show. I had seen it before in about 1970 when it first came out, but I had forgotten almost all of it. It was the movie that made Peter Bogdanovich famous. It had an all star cast, virtually all of which were unknown at the time, including Jeff Bridges, Tim Bottoms and his brother, Cybil Shepard, Ellen Burstyn, Randy Quaid, and Ben Johnson, among others. None of these people were known to me when I first saw it. Also it was based on a book by Larry McMurtry, whom I also had not heard of at the time. I agree with the opinion that it is now a classic. I give it five stars.
