The Moneychangers

This adaptation of Arthur Hailey's bestselling book is a tale of power and greed in the banking business. Two ambitious vice presidents become rivals when an imminent board room vacancy arises. The Moneychangers won an Emmy Award nomination as Outstanding Series as well as an Emmy for Christopher Plummer in his role as one of the protagonists. Other nominations went to Susan Flannery (as Kirk Douglas' lawyer girlfriend), to Joseph Biroc for his cinematography, and to Phill Norman for his graphics and opening titles.

The Last Picture Show

Like Easy Rider, Bonnie and Clyde, The Wild Bunch, and The Graduate, The Last Picture Show is one of the signature films of the "New Hollywood" that emerged in the late 1960s and early '70s. Based on the novel by Larry McMurtry and lovingly directed by Peter Bogdanovich (who cowrote the script with McMurtry), this 1971 drama has been interpreted as an affectionate tribute to classic Hollywood filmmaking and the great directors (such as John Ford) that Bogdanovich so deeply admired.
