55TH ANNIVERSARY SCREENING
MIDNIGHT COWBOY
1969
Director: JOHN SCHLESINGER
DUSTIN HOFFMAN, JON VOIGHT
ALL SEATS $12.00
Joe Buck (Jon Voight) is a handsome Texas kid eager to make his way in the Big Apple - by selling his love to lonely older women. When that fails miserably and he finds himself homeless, his only friend is the equally despondent Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman), a con man with no one to con. One of the grittiest and most emotional Best Picture Winners - and the only one to be originally given an X rating! - MIDNIGHT COWBOY stands as not only a searing portrait of loneliness, but a beautiful examination of male affection, not to mention a look at a New York City that is long gone. Winner of three Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Director, and Screenplay.
DCP - Park Circus.
