Too bad Voight turned out to be a QAnon nut

Yes, so tragic - sweet, dumb Joe Buck.

I just ignore his politics and appreciate his acting.

To be fair, a solid quarter of actors in Hollywood are crazy with one thing or another. Look at Cruise and Travolta.

Tanked his legacy. Now, he’s mostly known as being Angelina Jolie’s dad and saying in interviews that she’s mentally ill. What a creep!

The greatest deconstruction of the American Dream. What a movie. Dustin Hoffman was robbed of his Oscar.

“The decontstruction of the American dream” wow just those words and the editing of the video really speak volumes

Not a movie to watch when your feeling a little low...

The first time I saw this movie I was 16 and had a terrible fever and it was 3am. Some things just can’t be replicated

Part of the reason this film was so powerful was that it was shot in a lot of real-life locations with clips of real TV programs and real radio shows and real commercials. Not as much Hollywood artifice as had been standard forever till then. I've never forgotten the two men in the frigid apartment with the cheerful "orange juice on ice" jingle being heard from Joe's radio.

That was the last time we see that radio playing anything too. It went through a lot just to be pawned off unceremoniously as a bitter taste of reality.

From the gorgeous music, the superb script, the sound design, the excellent cinematography, the memorable supporting work by McGiver, Miles, and Vaccaro, the brilliant direction by John Schlesinger and the great performances by Hoffman and especially Voight--whose Joe Buck is one of the finest pieces of acting ever put on film--this movie is a touching masterpiece and a time capsule of many of society's changes during the late 1960s. Midnight Cowboy is an unforgettable experience.

Rico's last words in the movie were 'Thanks, Joe'. Meaning thanks for being a friend. Thanks for everything.

John McGiver was such a great character actor🙏

I relate to Joe Buck on the bus switching mentally from perhaps thinking about his adventure to looking at the empty seats and realizing he’s going it alone. Weird feeling when I see that. This movie is the best of all time.

The I'M WALKIN HERE line was totally improv--Voight and Hoffman actually almost DID get run over. One of those magical moments that could only happen in New York!

Good editing, well done! Not too much, just enough. I never realized why he turned out the way he did, the beginning made that clear.

Excellent edit - takes serious skill to take something new out of something old - still the same as original but different at the same time - good job (1st youtube comment ever)

Fascinatingly depressing - is that OK? He starts out with a wealth of naive optimism and the sense of disillusionment gathers pace like an avalanche. Believing meeting Hoffman was the gateway to his dreams........but it's the opposite, sadly.

Was this movie as much a shock to British audiences as it was to Americans? Schlesinger (and other British directors) had been doing edgy material for years, topics that couldn't get past US censors.

@cathykinn4516 Ай бұрын

So much better than the van sant thing 'Idaho.' But then John Schlesinger was a Far Better Director & everyone involved in this film had more Talent.

Does Joe kill that last guy?

@royrush5374 3 жыл бұрын

You can't truly tell.. But Joe crammed the phone into his mouth and there was a lot of blood afterwards. In the book, he doesn't want to talk to Ratso about it also. The audiobook is the best way to experience the story. There is a whole other experience Joe has before going to New York.

@howdoiputthecheeseintheove8437 3 жыл бұрын

I don't think he does, realistically i'd say he brutally bashes the old guy and shoves the phone in his' unconscious mouth

@frankmasiello1325 26 күн бұрын

It is indeed a troubling and ambiguous scene, but since the man's dentures fall out before the phone is pushed into his mouth immediately after calling the hotel's switchboard, one would hope help arrived in time.
