Documentary review - "Picture This" (1991) ****

 The story of the making of Texasville is everything that film is not - brilliantly evocative of a place (love those whining cowboys who want to be in the movie), memorable characters (Larry McMurtry's worried mother, the original inspiration for Jacy, cuckolded Polly Platt, tormented Bogdanovich, awkward Tim Bottoms), and true drama (returning to the scene of a film where so much happened). Very well done.
