Review of Paper Moon (1973) by James H — 09 May 2010
100/100. Peter Bogdonovich's brilliance in the early 1970's is unsurpassed. This and The Last Picture Show are two of the best films of that decade. Both were very effectively filmed in black and white and both are monumental achievements in film making.
The cast is amazing. Tatum O'Neal is outstanding in an Academy Award winning performance. Madeline Kahn is hysterically funny, and Ryan O'Neal gives one of the best performances of his career.
The movie is filled with memorable and unforgettable scenes. The period detail is among the best of all time. The cinematography is superb, the art direction is flawless and the score is wonderful. It is a pleasure to watch and the pacing is perfect.
