El Hombre Invisible
The Last Picture Show - and I feel like the last person to see this classic, but it's been on the Must See list for so long that it got forgotten until recently - and what a film it is - not only for Cybill Shepherd's strip-on-the-diving-board scene, not for that at all, but the whole cast, script, direction, mood - and some of the best sex scenes ever filmed, but not for the usual reasons of lechery, but poignant, tragic sadness, not least the desperate loneliness of the 'older woman' - love lost...material aspiration & teenage frustration - absolutely brilliant.
