If you haven't seen "The Last Picture Show" you've missed a great performance (academy award winning) by Cloris Leachman....
I grew up in the late 50's/ early 60's in a small town just about the size of Archer City and about 150 miles away from where "The Last Picture Show" was filmed. The first time I saw the movie it was just like deja vu as far as the town, the dust storms, banging screen doors.... and many of the characters. That was small town Texas in the late 50's and early 1960's. and in ways it hasn't changed all that much since then.
For another glimpse of that place and era, watch "HUD" with Paul Newman.
