He was a programmer at the Museum of Modern Art in the 1960s, and through his writing and programming, he met and interviewed many of the great directors of Hollywood’s Golden Age, including John Ford and Orson Welles. Through his work as a critic, Bogdanovich also met exploitation producer Roger Corman, and he gave him his first directing jobs.

The black-and-white drama about life in a small Texas town wound up getting eight Academy Award nominations and two wins, for Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress .with something completely different: An old-fashioned screwball romantic comedy, with Barbra Streisand and Ryan O’Neal.
