In other words, the studios could go to hell. Bogdanovich even joined Francis Ford Coppola and William Friedkin in forming a company that would give them complete control and financing for any pictures they wanted to make. Then came the popular screwball comedy, What's Up, Doc? (1972), and the Howard Hawks-inspired Depression-era road picture, Paper Moon (1973). After directing a remarkably inventive, no-budget thriller called Targets (1968), Bogdanovich graduated to the majors with The Last Picture Show (1971), one of the more evocative ruminations on small-town American life ever committed to film.
By Hollywood standards, Peter Bogdanovich was riding about as high as you can get in the early 1970s.
