Review of Texasville (1990) by Rita Kempley for Washington Post — 01 Jan 2000
Bogdanovich, who worked with McMurtry on the Last Picture Show screenplay, adapted this one on his own. It's kinda like he tried to pare down the big ol' Encyclopaedia Britannica and couldn't bear to leave out nothin' -- a lot of Billy Joe Bob types talking guff and hogwash and settin' round the Burger King eating fried eggs.
This is purty near the worst movie of the whole year.
