"In 1971, Newsweek heralded The Last Picture Show as the "the most impressive work
by a young American director since Citizen Kane." Indeed, few filmmakers rivaled Peter
Bogdanovich's popularity over the next decade. Riding the success of What's Up, Doc?
(1972) and Paper Moon (1973), Bogdanovich became a bona fide celebrity, making regular
appearances in his own movie trailers, occasionally hosting late-night television
shows, and publicly advocating for mentors John Ford and Howard Hawks. No director
of his era surpassed his ability to capture an audience's imagination. In Picturing
Peter Bogdanovich: My Conversations with the New Hollywood Director, journalist and
critic Peter Tonguette offers a film-by-film analysis of the director's life and work.
Beginning with a string of 1970s classics, Tonguette explores well-known films such
as Saint Jack (1979), They All Laughed (1981), and Noises Off (1992), as well as the
director's work on stage and television. Drawing on interviews conducted over sixteen
years, Tonguette pairs his analysis with an extensive, previously unpublished series
of Q & As with Bogdanovich. These exclusive interviews reveal behind-the-scenes details
about the director's life, work, and future plans. Part memoir, part critical biography,
this book offers a uniquely intimate portrait of one of Hollywood's most underappreciated
directors"
