Product Description:
Jeff Bridges and Cybill Shepherd give the best performances of their careers [and] Annie Potts is superb (Chicago Tribune) as three sides of a Texas love triangle bending wildly out of shape. Adapted from a novel by Larry McMurtry this sequel to the Oscar®-winning* The Last Picture Show reunites the original all-star cast including Cloris Leachman Randy Quaid Eileen Brennan and Timothy Bottoms as well as director Peter Bogdanovich for a profoundly satisfying rendezvous (The Philadelphia Inquirer)! She s back. Jacy Farrow (Shepherd) the girl that broke Duane Jackson s (Bridges) heart has returned to Anarene Texas. And now Duane is not only harried by a busted business a sarcastic wife (Potts) and a rambunctious son who steals his mistresses but also by Jacy who s home to find herself and the love she left behind.System Requirements: Runing Time 126 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: R UPC: 027616879073 Manufacturer No: 1003782

Amazon.com:
Larry McMurtry's novel was a sequel to The Last Picture Show, picking up with the same characters in the 1980s, after the Texas oil boom had gone bust. Peter Bogdanovich, down on his luck, was tapped to direct and managed to reassemble much of the original cast: Jeff Bridges, Cybill Shepherd, Timothy Bottoms, Cloris Leachman, and Randy Quaid. Where Picture Show focused on Bottoms's character, this episode centers on Bridges. Fending off creditors, dealing badly with middle age, and drinking too much, he reconnects with Shepherd when she returns to town. But there's not a lot of plot; rather, this is a meditation on the disappointments life can hand out. Bridges, as always, is solid; Bottoms, something of a lost soul in his acting career, seems typecast as the achiever who never recovered from the shell shock of the Korean War. Still, an interesting companion piece to the first film. --Marshall Fine

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fans of "The Last Picture Show"
This film takes place 20 years after Last Picture Show, but in many ways, is better than the original. Excellent film. Watch for a surprising performance from Annie Potts!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - classic
This was an interesting update on the lives of the characters in the movie "The Last Picture Show". Did miss Ben Johnson though--he died in the first movie.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Sequel To Last Picture Show
Because I consider "Last Picture Show" one of the best movies I've ever seen, I was surprised and pleased to see that a sequel, (Texasville), was made several years later. Although it is not up to the impact made by Last Picture Show I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, particularly seeing someone that I consider America's FINEST actor -- CLORIS LEACHMAN.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - VIEW FROM THE SET OF "TEXASVILLE" - A FUNNY LOOK AT REAL LIFE & DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILIES

EVEN THOUGH MY SON, JIMMY HOWELL, PLAYED THE 10 YR. OLD TWIN OF JEFF BRIDGES AND ANNIE POTTS IN THIS MOVIE, and we were on the set the entire filming (Aug - Nov '89)......I am glad to read E. Currie's review below that states that "Texasville" "is now widely recgonized as an excellent film". I saw the hard work and long hours that Peter Bogdanovich and the crew spent on making this film. This was my first experience on a movie set.

I think the movie is funny, yet sad, in showing ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent Sequel.
Although not well received by the critics, this sequel to The Last Picture Show is now widely recognised as an excellent film.

Laced with explicit and tacit references to the old days, it rekindles that unique atmosphere so meticulously created by Bogdanovich in the original. There are many contrasts, though. This film is set in summer amid stifling heat while its forerunner was icy cold, with the wild Texas wind howling throughout. The overall feel of the film is similarly hot and potent, ...
