Review of Midnight Cowboy (1969) by Emy B — 20 Mar 2010
I'd like this one a lot more if it weren't for Jon Voight's over-acting. He's not a Texan, he's someone's stereotypical perception of a Texan. Hoffman, however, is his usual brilliant self. 'Ratso Rizzo' is now firmly entrenched in American pop culture as one of the most memorable characters in Hollywood history. He's disgusting yet likable, repulsive yet empathetic.
Midnight Cowboy: controversial, ground-breaking, classic.
