Classic tale of small town adolescence and sexual intrigue from director Peter Bogdanovich.

Set in 1950s Texas, the film follows the exploits of high school football stars Sonny Crawford (Timothy Bottoms) and Duane Jackson (Jeff Bridges) as they take their first steps into adulthood - Sonny drifting into an affair with an older woman (Cloris Leachman), and Duane experiencing problems with his self-centred, social-climbing girlfriend Jacy Farrow (Cybill Shepherd).

Meanwhile, the local cinema so dear to the friends and so evocative of the innocence of their childhood years, is faced with closure.
