If ever there was a more poignant metaphor for the futility of existence, I haven't seen it.

Damn good movie and in my personal top 5. Sam the Lion hits home for me as I had someone like him in my life growing up. Wisdom and wit. Living in small town Iowa and watching your home town die sure as hell hits home in this movie also. Ben Johnson was a under used and appreciated actor. This is a movie I recomend to anybody that is a serious movie buff. Hope to read the book someday

@thisisnotzimbabwe paper moon is indeed a far superior film to txville.

@thisisnotzimbabwe yes, i agree texasville is a big letdown after picture show. the few good things about texasville were actually found in the novel. sonny was the heart and soul of lps. it was a big mistake to completely change the character of duane from lps to what he became in Txville. sure people change in 30 years, but for duane to go for an impulsive character to the voice of reason was just too much. it may as well have been two different people.

@cochranexyz I watched Texasville and it was frankly a disappointment, I just didn't like the evolution of the characters. If you like Bogdanovich style, I would recommend you "Paper moon".

I was really moved the first time I watched the movie as a teenager, in those years that you don't seem to fit anywhere (the feeling comes back once in a while). In this world in which we seldom speak from our heart, you sometimes get more truth from movies like this one than from real life...
How many times, I would have loved to shout: "He was sweeping, sonofbitches, he was sweeping!So easy and yet so hard to understand for some people...

I remember seeing this film for the first time. This scene really got to me.

Easily inside of my personal top 5 most powerful, haunting, and memorable scenes in the history of film.

This beautiful, elegiac poem of a film, "Paper Moon" and "Targets" are amongst the best works in American film.
