Film Dope



Peter Bogdanovich

Sunday, 30th July 1939 - Thursday, 6th January 2022
Kingston, NY
USA


Perhaps an embodiment of the ultimate film nerd wishfullfilment fantasy. Film devotee, critic, interviewer, biographer and author. A chance meeting with Roger Corman gave him the opportunity to write and direct and launched him on a successful, occasionally headline grabbing, Hollywood career. The Last Picture Show is a towering achievement.
Bogdanovich died from complications of Parkinson's disease at his home in Los Angeles at the age of 82.
