There's not much to do in the windswept Texas hamlet of Anarene, where the town's only cinema is about to close forever. High-school seniors Sonny and Duane lust after incorrigible flirt Jacy Farrow while trying to chart their uncertain futures. When Duane heads for Korea after joining the service and Jacy gets shipped off to college, Sonny is left behind in Anarene - a ghost town in the making.

On a side note, The Last Picture Show is controversial due to its famous pool scene. For more information on the controversy, click below:
