Bogdanovich is a creep!


He used a film set to seduce a man's wife, which caused him to become enraged, then murder her, after that, he married her little sister!

Yeah, I don't know too much about this particular story, but he has always struck me as arrogant in the extreme, i.e., no conscience. I think the fact that he stayed with Cybil Shepherd for such a long time (well, in Hollywood years, anyway) testifies to this.

Having said this, "The Last Picture Show" is, IMO, one of the most sensitive, touching films ever made.

whoa! he did all that? Murdered who that married which? You're a..woman,aren't you.

Now, can that wife be seduced is she doesn't wish to be? A person cannot be stolen unless they wish to be stolen. Now,what about murder, he was directly or indirectly responsible for that too? Yes, if another person murders somebody,then let's blame the person who made him angry. You should work as a D.A.

The point is, one that obviously went way over your head, you don't chase after another man's wife.

It didn't go over my head.
It depends on what you mean by "chase"; chasing can mean different things.

So, if someobody chased you, you could be swayed to forfeit your spouse of current lover? What does that say how SURE people are about how much they love their mate? If one is being chased,wouldn't that amount to stalking if the one being pursued is not interested? (unless they are enjoying being 'chased')Or maybe people are just airheads, and don't friggin know how they feel.
Did the other man's wife end up with Bog? Gee what a creep she is.
Yeah, "obviously",apparently, and evidently.

It's like I have to spoon-feed everything I say.

The ONLY person responsible for Dorothy's death is Paul. If it wasn't Bogdanovich, it would have been someone else. She was finally realizing what a mistake she made and tried to leave him. He killed her. You think he wouldn't have done that with anyone else? He did it because it was the last "power" he had over her.

You need to realize a woman (or a man) is NOT property. If someone is not happy in a relationship and wants to move on, they have every right to do so without worrying about being murdered.

You want to blame someone for this tragedy? Blame Paul. Hope he's rotting in hell.

I wasn't defending Snider. I was simply stating that Bogdanovich seduced a man's wife (who was 20 years younger than him). Which is always gonna wreak havoc in a relationship. When Snider murdered her, he married her little sister. That's a creep.
