Movie Reviews of Texasville

Movie Review: classic
Summary: 4 Stars

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.

Summary of Texasville

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 castincluding Cloris Leachman, Randy Quaid, Eileen Brennan and Timothy Bottomsas 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 sonwho steals his mistressesbut also by Jacy, who's home to find herself and the love she left behind. *1971: Supporting Actor (Ben Johnson), Supporting Actress (Leachman)
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
