The Last Picture Show 4K 1971 THEATRICAL

Sonny and Dwayne are best friends, "five and a half" high school graduates who will get a "ticket" to adulthood. In the meantime, they enjoy their quiet days, going to the local pool hall, coffee shop and movie theater, hitting on the girls and playing on the school's soccer team. It's the 1950s and the dusty streets of a Texas suburban town. It seems that everything will be the same as before, life will not change, the town will live its life and its little problems. But time flies and makes its adjustments, the guys grow up, life goes on its course, many things change, and soon the local cinema will show the last movie screening, and life will not be the same...

The stylistics of black-and-white movies of the 50s and 60s has always been special and unique. People say, "they used to make movies like this, but they don't make them like this anymore". And, indeed, each film era is characterized and inherent in its own styles and trends, which are difficult to reproduce later without making just a dull "reproduction." Peter Bogdanovich managed in the early '70s to make real cinema of an era that has irrevocably passed into the past.

So what is the film about, some will ask? The answer is simple - it's about everything! It is a film about young people, it is a film about love, it is a film about loneliness, it is a film about growing up, it is a film about... it is a real film, specific and special, touching and sad, funny and a little lyrical.

It's a film to watch, not to describe.
