Bogdanovich's breakthrough came with 1968's Targets, in which he also appeared alongside Boris Karloff. Three years later, The Last Picture Show became a critical and commercial success. What's Up Doc and Daisy Miller followed, but he hasn't had a major hit film since 1976's Nickelodeon. He continues to act, cropping up in such TV series as Bella Mafia, The Sopranos and Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
