 +"Following the advice of director [[Frank Tashlin]], Bogdanovich and his wife, production designer [[Polly Platt]], packed up and moved to California. There, a chance meeting with exploitation director/producer Roger Corman led to his first job as a filmmaker. In early 1966, Bogdanovich was hired to do a script rewrite of Corman's upcoming biker picture, ''[[The Wild Angels]]'', and wound up working on the picture as Corman's assistant, second unit director, assistant editor, and even as an extra, tussling with a Hell's Angel during a fight sequence. During those 22 weeks, Bogdanovich got a paid course in all aspects of how to make a film quickly, cheaply and efficiently. Pleased with Bogdanovich's work on ''Wild Angels'', Corman next assigned him to shoot new English-language footage to be intercut with outer-space sequences from a Russian film Corman had purchased, eventually released as ''[[Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women]]'' (1966). His next assignment from Corman would turn into a major triumph for the fledgling filmmaker."--unidentified snippet, sourced at[https://jahsonic.com/PeterBogdanovich.html]

-'''Peter Bogdanovich''' (July 30, 1939 – January 6, 2022) was an American director, writer, actor, producer, critic, and film historian.+'''Peter Bogdanovich''' (1939 – 2022) was an [[American director]], writer, actor, producer, critic, and film historian.
- +
-One of the "[[New Hollywood]]" directors, Bogdanovich started as a film journalist until he got hired to work on [[Roger Corman]]'s ''[[The Wild Angels]]'' (1966). After that film's success, he directed his own film ''[[Targets]]'' (1968), a critical success. He garnered widespread recognition for his acclaimed coming of age film ''[[The Last Picture Show]]'' (1971). The film received eight [[Academy Award]] nominations including for the [[Academy Award for Best Picture|Best Picture]], with Bogdanovich receiving nominations for [[Academy Award for Best Director|Best Director]] and [[Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay|Best Adapted Screenplay]].+
- +
-Following ''The Last Picture Show'' success, he directed the screwball comedy ''[[What's Up, Doc? (1972 film)|What's Up, Doc?]]'' (1972), which was a major box office success, and another critical and commercial success, ''[[Paper Moon (film)|Paper Moon]]'' (1973), which earned him a [[Golden Globe Award for Best Director]] nomination. His following three films were all critical and commercial failures, including ''[[Daisy Miller (film)|Daisy Miller]]'' (1974). He took a three-year hiatus before making a comeback with cult films ''[[Saint Jack (film)|Saint Jack]]'' (1979) and ''[[They All Laughed]]'' (1981). After his girlfriend [[Dorothy Stratten]]'s murder, he took another four-year hiatus from filmmaking and wrote a memoir on her death titled ''[[The Killing of the Unicorn]]'' before making a comeback with ''[[Mask (1985 film)|Mask]]'' (1985), a critical and commercial success. He later went on to direct films such as ''[[Noises Off (film)|Noises Off]]'' (1992), ''[[The Thing Called Love]]'' (1993), ''[[The Cat's Meow]]'' (2001), and ''[[She's Funny That Way (film)|She's Funny That Way]]'' (2014). As an actor, he is known for his roles in [[HBO]] series ''[[The Sopranos]]'' and [[Orson Welles]]'s last movie ''[[The Other Side of the Wind]]'' (2018), which he also helped to finish. He received a [[Grammy Award for Best Music Film]] for directing the [[Tom Petty]] documentary ''[[Runnin' Down a Dream (film)|Runnin' Down a Dream]]'' (2007).+
- +
-An accomplished film historian, he directed documentaries such as ''[[Directed by John Ford]]'' (1971) and ''[[The Great Buster: A Celebration]]'' (2018), and published over ten books, some of which include in-depth interviews with friends [[Howard Hawks]] and [[Alfred Hitchcock]]. Bogdanovich's works have been cited as important influences by many major filmmakers.+

Current revision

"Following the advice of director Frank Tashlin, Bogdanovich and his wife, production designer Polly Platt, packed up and moved to California. There, a chance meeting with exploitation director/producer Roger Corman led to his first job as a filmmaker. In early 1966, Bogdanovich was hired to do a script rewrite of Corman's upcoming biker picture, The Wild Angels, and wound up working on the picture as Corman's assistant, second unit director, assistant editor, and even as an extra, tussling with a Hell's Angel during a fight sequence. During those 22 weeks, Bogdanovich got a paid course in all aspects of how to make a film quickly, cheaply and efficiently. Pleased with Bogdanovich's work on Wild Angels, Corman next assigned him to shoot new English-language footage to be intercut with outer-space sequences from a Russian film Corman had purchased, eventually released as Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women (1966). His next assignment from Corman would turn into a major triumph for the fledgling filmmaker."--unidentified snippet, sourced at[1]
