Why watch this film?
A small town dreamer. A small time con man. An unlikely friendship. An uncommon bond. Oscar winners Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman star in this Academy Award winning drama for Best Picture. Nearly 40 years after its original release, Midnight Cowboy "is still heartbreaking and timeless" (The New York Observer).
"A classic three-time Oscar-winning film that uses the perspective of a simple cowboy from the countryside to portray the urban chaos of the US. Some parts of the movie - mainly those related to women - have not aged particularly well. Nevertheless, this is still a relevant and revealing work about late 1960s cinema."
