The story of unlikely friends have never been told in such a way that Midnight Cowboy has done. A Texas man who dreams of becoming hustler in New York decides to pack up his bags and just go for it. When he gets there he meets a man that goes by Ratso. The two are not fast friends but they slowly find that they need each other more than they have ever thought.
Midnight Cowboy was produced by United Artist. It took home the 1969 Academy Award for Best Picture. It took the prize home over the likes of: Universal's Anne of the Thousand Days; 20th Century Fox's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Hello, Dolly; as well as O.N.C.I.C's Z. The National Film Registry also selected Midnight Cowboy for preservation in 1994.
I did not have a whole lot to say about this film because I flat out hated it! I did not understand why this film was made. I have no idea what the point of it was. I mean there was a lot of sex and drugs but I mean I didn't find any meaning to this film at all. I really just wanted to turn it off as soon as it started really...
