Review of Saturday Night Fever (1977) by Enrica C — 12 Apr 2010
A timeless classic, a quite realistic painting of how was it like to live the night in the US dancehalls in the '70s. The most amazing thing about â??Saturday Night Feverâ?? is that the movie is still up-to-date; after watching it you realize that not much has changed in 40 years, not really â?? people still want the same things and have the same feelings.
This movie is not only about love for dancing (although it seems like it is in the first 10 minutes); in fact itâ??s about much deeper messages than only this one: thereâ??s friendship that wins on love, sex, drugs, abortion, religious crisis, family matters, poverty, â?¦ In summary, a quick but complete overview of the â??70s.
At the beginning weâ??re so near NYC, but yet so far away from it â?? and at the end we get there, filled up with a new lifelong friendship. I just loved the ending, it was perfect.
An unforgettable performance by John Travolta, a great soundtrack â?? and â??Saturday Night Feverâ?? turns out to be a movie totally worth watching, even if youâ??re not exactly a disco fan.
