Peter Bogdanovich (July 30, 1939 – January 6, 2022) was an American film director, writer, actor and film historian, associated with the New Hollywood era and known for films such as The Last Picture Show and Saint Jack.

Key New Hollywood director; breakthrough with The Last Picture Show (1971); directed Saint Jack (1979); worked as critic and film historian.

A richly descriptive, highly favorable review of Peter Bogdanovich's Saint Jack. The reviewer emphasizes atmosphere, heat, sex, and urban decay in 1970s Singapore and praises Ben Gazzara's performance. The piece situates the film within New Hollywood and Bogdanovich's auteurism.

For:Cinephiles, fans of New Hollywood and 1970s cinema, students of film

 An apparent paradise, in reality, a grim and venomous metropolitan city.
