    One of the major figures leading the late renaissance of the American cinema in the 1970s, Peter Bogdanovich made his debut with a series of brilliantly enchanting and entertaining films that drew their inspiration from the past glory of studio-era Hollywood. His directorial debut was Targets, a bold and intensely stylized tale of a cold-blooded killer, that immediately established the young director as an auteur. Bogdanovich’s three subsequent narrative features, The Last Picture Show, What’s Up, Doc? and Paper Moon, offered unexpected reinventions of studio-era genres - the Western, the screwball and small-town comedy - that cemented his standing as one of the great artists of the Seventies cinema. Following up those critical and commercial successes with a trio of undeservedly maligned, risky films - Daisy Miller, At Long Last Love and Nickelodeon - Bogdanovich returned with two of his strongest mid-career films, Saint Jack and They All Laughed.
