RIP PETER BOGDANOVICH 1939-2022

One of the most famous film directors has died.

Peter Bogdanovich will forever be known for such films as "Paper Moon", "The Last Picture Show", "Mask" and many others.

However my movie life was influenced by some of his early works with Roger Corman. Films such as "Voyage To The Planet Of Prehistoric Women", and "Battle Beyond The Stars" are two of my favprite films.

Movie fans also know Bogdanovich directed the final film for Boris Karloff entitled "Targets". He also directed some of the classic "The Wild Angels" which was a huge hit for AIP.

Bogdanovich also acted in several films including "Targets" and "The Wild Angels". He was also a huge fan of classic Hollywood and gave a lot of time and money to film preservation.

The man of many talents passed away on Jan. 6th, 2022 at the age of 82 from natural causes.
