Between World War II and the Korean conflict, the tiny West Texas town of Anarene dies a quiet death as its residents head for the big cities to make their livings and raise kids. Sonny (Timothy Bottoms) and Duane (Jeff Bridges) are best friends in their late teens who pass their time with football, cinema and girls – including Duane’s steady girlfriend Jacy (Cybil Shepherd), who is herself at the crossroads of adolescence and adulthood. An evocative and bittersweet slice-of-life masterpiece by Peter Bogdanovich, based on the novel by Larry McMurtry, the film’s black and white cinematography perfectly captures the lyrical passing of time from America’s forgotten 1950s.
