PB is a guy that has everything, and nothing at the same time. Somebody should write a movie about this guy's life.

Great comment!

[mommyimadeapoopy]

anderson seems really uneasy. is he always like this or is he just intimidated by bogdanovich?

[withlotsabutta]

I don't think it's either. I think he's what my kindly grandmother would dub "an odd duck." lol!

@mommyimadeapoopy I just like how much water he drinks.

[withlotsabutta]

@theskyhawkfiles LOL!

Peter is a pig to have had an affair with a 20 year old Dorothy when he knew she was married to a pimp wacko. Peter got uglier with age, not that he was ever easy on the eyes. If he wasn't a director he never would've gotten any pretty woman.

thanks for uploading...'they all laughed' is truly an under-appreciated film. i saw it when it was first released, and i fell in love. So bittersweet to remember how sad it was to hear of Stratten's brutal murder just two weeks post filming.

@wilsondylanmccartney Hey, if you directed The Last Picture Show, then you can act like you're Ghandi's best friend for all I care.

Seriously though, the fact that you base your opinion on the guy based on special features on Hitchcock DVDs shows you probably don't know all that much about him.

[FetaCheese222]

@ScrapNfight Don't most directors base what they think of their films on how they felt making it?

[ScrapNfight]

Bogdanovich isn't the best judge of films, let alone his own work.  He bases how he thinks of his films in terms of the experience of having made it or the way it was perceived afterwards by the critics. Overall he comes off as an unhappy person. I do admire his brutal honesty

[yougotitjerky]

You people need to chill the fuck out. Bogdanovich has directed a huge amount of amazing movies, has been a pioneering film historian since his early twenties and continuing on into the 00's and was/is genuinely close with innumerable heroes like Cassavetes, Welles and Lewis. Any self-respecting film fan has to at least have a begrudging respect for his massive technical skill and knowledge if nothing else.

those drinking glasses are so weird...

[dirkbogarde44]

@wilsondylanmccartney Watch The Last Picture show. You might not be so harsh afterwards.

[viniciusb]

The camera guy shooting this interview is pretty amazing.

@withlotsabutta haha that comment calling Wes Anderson an odd duck made me laugh so hard i read it to my mom, she agrees with you big time. haha

[wilsondylanmccartney]

I'm so sick of Peter. It seems like every Hitchcock dvd I get, he's on there, claiming to be his best friend, and knowing all of Hitchcock's thoughts, his notions, his every reason for doing this or that. Give me a break. When I watch Peter here, I don't even see a real person; I see 100% ego. And it's sad, that he's that way. I've never watched any of Peter's movies, and to be honest, I don't ever plan to. This dude needs to read The Seat of the Soul, by Gary Zukav, over and over, and over.
