Midnight Cowboy : A piece of cinematic genius from all involved

Advantages: Superb acting & directing, highly atmospheric, something for everyone
Disadvantages: None whatsoever

...Waldo Salt

Midnight Cowboy is a 1969 movie adaptation of James Leo Herlihy’s novel of the same name, and I believe this novel was first published at some point in the early 1960s.

My first viewing of the film Midnight Cowboy was in about 1973-ish when it was doing its second cinema run in the UK. I’d recently read the novel, and hadn’t been too impressed with it. I was thus a little dubious as to whether I’d like the ...
...the film.

Midnight Cowboy tells the story of Joe Buck, a young and naïve pseudo cowboy Texan dishwasher who decides to move to New York, having heard that a lot of money can be made there through working as a stud for rich women. Feeling that sex is the only thing he’s ever in his life been good at and thus seeing countless dollar signs in front of his eyes, Joe leaves Texas on a Greyhound bus, dressed in full cowboy gear, carrying ... more

''everybody's talkin' at'' him

Advantages: A classic, cult film with incredible acting
Disadvantages: Very graphic sexually and language wise

== MIDNIGHT COWBOY (1969) == === DVD (2000) === Having recently written reviews on 'The Graduate' and 'Bonnie and Clyde', I was reminded of another classic film from that era - 'Midnight Cowboy'. I had to find a DVD for this film (thanks to Amazon I managed to get one for just £2!!) and watch it again - forty years from when I first went to the cinema to watch it. John Schlesinger's 'Midnight Cowboy' is widely recognized as being one of the most ...
...and depressing city. Midnight Cowboy opens with Jon Voight as the young Texan, Joe Buck, in his tight fitting jeans, buckskin jacket, western boots and cowboy hat. He is on a Grey Hound bus leaving Texas and some bad dreams behind. He hopes for a new life in New York City where he has ideas of making money by offering his sexual services as a stud to the lonely rich woman of New York. Unfortunately for him, he soon realizes that his dream job isn't ...

I ain't a real cowboy but I am one helluva stud!

Advantages: touching, funny and memorable
Disadvantages: depictions of violence and prostitution may be shocking

...to win an Academy Award, Midnight Cowboy is the story of Joe Buck (Jon Voight), a Texan who arrives in New York to make his fortune as a male prostitute. Finding himself a less successful 'stud' than he'd envisaged and unable to afford anywhere to live, Joe hooks up with small-time con artist, Enrico 'Ratso' Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman). After a prickly start, the two forge an unlikely kinship, with Rizzo offering Buck his 'management' skills while providing ...
...a film of its time, Midnight Cowboy does not seem as dated as one might expect. Stylistic '60s cinematic moments pinpoint a definite era and feel to the film without making it inaccessible to a modern audience. Waldo Salt's screenplay, based on the novel by James Leo Herlihy, sparkles with witticisms without sacrificing the gritty heart of the characters. For a film so comparatively short on plot, Midnight Cowboy is well-paced and brilliantly scripted. ...

Losers need love too.

Advantages: Will make you a better person for a day or two.
Disadvantages: Breaks your heart then stamps on the soggy halves.

Undoubtedly one of the truly great films. I seem to remember that Dustin Hoffman won an oscar for his role but John Voight is absolutely outstanding in this and I think he should have won. When Voight decides he's had enough of flipping burgers and decides to cash in on his youth and goodlooks he heads for where he thinks the streets are paved with gold and he can make easy money servicing the local women who want a bit extra in their lives. Things ...
...to engage in a sexual act he never quite bargained for. His uneasy alliance with Ritzo Ratzo only serves to underline the misguided and desperate self delusion they both use to bolster themselves up. Their rocky friendship deepens and they embark on a sixties-era minor adventure that seems a bit pointless today and is the only low point in a great film. Eventually the objectives change from the superficial goals of these low-life hustlers (do we ...

Yes it IS Madding - not Maddening !!

Advantages: A beautiful film
Disadvantages: A little long

FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD 1967 I remember going to the cinema in the 70?s to watch this film and loving it, Thomas Hardy had always been one of my favourite writers, and ?Far From the Madding Crowd? a close second favourite behind ?Tess of the D?Urbervilles? The film was released in 1967 by MGM and directed by the same man who directed "Midnight Cowboy, John Schlesinger, another popular film at the time. When I saw the DVD cheap on Amazon I decided to add it to my list to watch it again. "Far from the Madding Crowd" is set around the 1860?s in the English countryside of ?Wessex? in a setting of chalk cliffs leading down to the sea, green countryside and small town manners and prejudices. The film stars Julie Christie as Bathsheba Everdene, the daughter of a poor widow, who cares for her wealthy uncle. When her ...
