Peter Bogdanovich created an American film classic with his black and white drama THE LAST PICTURE SHOW. A quarter of a century later, Bogdanovich assembled many in the original cast including Jeff Bridges, Randy Quaid, Cybill Shepherd, and the Bottoms brothers to create a sequel based on a follow-up novel TEXASVILLE by original author Larry McMurtry. The shooting was fraught with problems and drama behind the scenes and the film was a unqualified bomb upon its release. This documentary looks at both the original and the sequel, explaining the trying circumstances over both shoots and how TEXASVILLE became such a failure.Additional Release Material: Bonus Features - 1.
