on the set
Director Peter Bogdanovich doesn t have the word ‘comeback" etched on his agenda But after a
string of less than steilar films — TexasviUe and Noises OH — the man who directed the critically
P«t*r Bogdanovich
acclaimed me Last mure xww is trying to make n t>ac* jusi
don t call it a comeback
“I've been having so many supposed comebacks Clinton s
got nothing on me.’ Bogdanovich says from the set ot his
newest venture The Thing Called Love “I realty think it you're
any good you re not gang to have one hit after another Most
people that are any good have their ups and downs Between
flops I've had a tew hits ’
The Thing Called Love, a Paramount film set for release this
summer, traces the lives and loves ot country singers and song
writers "It's very character-driven This is not a picture like
Fame " Bogdanovich explains The flick, which stars River Phoenix. Samantha Mathis and Dermot
Muironey takes Nashville s legendary Bluebird Cate center stage, where country music hopefuls go m
search of their first big break
"The picture's about people — it happens to be people who are interested m songs m Nashville,"
Bogdanovich says 'It’s an unusual idea that you have going — people auditioning then songs It's a
kind of variety thing that they do in a strangely informal, very unpretentious atmosphere." • Jim
