One of the all-time Texas classics that makes our 2017 Texas Film Hall of Fame honoree list. Writer/producer/director James L. Brooks adapts Larry McMurtry’s novel about the turbulent lives and times of a single mother and her daughter, played by Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger. This story of two fiercely individualistic and self-reliant Texas women was ahead of its time, and garnered five Academy Awards . With unforgettable turns from Jack Nicholson (in one of his most memorable roles), John Lithgow, Danny DeVito and Jeff Daniels.
