One of the best films ever. ❤❤❤

64 years old and reminiscing profusely. One of the best films I have ever seen, within my lifetime.

[@BernhardRottweiler]

What a great, melancholic movie. Only true art is capable of letting real beauty shimmer through tragedy and despair.

[@seanohare5488]

Agree

[@volta5550]

Because that’s what life…beautifully tragic, tragically beautiful… etc

Nilson is a brilliant songwriter and singer. This unforgettable film keeps this song alive.

[@danielconrad399]

Nilsson was great. Fred Neil wrote that song.

[@JimBow-d2y]

Hofffman and Voight put in their best ever performances in this superb movie, arguably the best film produced in the states.

[@frankscivier4874]

Dustin Hoffman was an extremely lucky man when he started out in the movies in the 1960’s. He got starring roles in two of the very best movies or that decade, or any other decade for that matter!. This movie “Midnight Cowboy” and “The Graduate” were both wonderful movies and remain two of my all-time favourites.

[@jre617]

Midnight Cowboy, yes, but The Graduate? It doesn't hold up. 8th graders aren't that naïve.

[@demolitionsexpert]

[@williamrowlands1789]

I saw it in 1970 during the start of my senior year in high school. It had been edited from the initial release the year before from X to R. Three of us skipped school that afternoon to go see it. I have it on my DVR and recently rewatched it. Still as powerful now as it was back 50+ years ago.

[@catsamazing338]

An iconic American movie. Certainly one of the best !

[@michaeloberly6129]

I first watched this movie as a teenager probably in the late '70s or very early '80s. I remember telling my dad somethinbg like "it's such a realistic depiction of NYC!". (I grew up in rural Ohio) My dad replied "well, it's A depiction of NYC!". As usual, he was right. As a young adult, I loved NYC. Of colurse, Nilsson's song is incredible.

[@gavinbolton-ou6tv]

I arrived in NYC from Joburg South Africa, it blew my mind away, rough, tough dirty, tis was ‘85 I was 23, I immediately fell in love with the place, hustling and bustling, felt like I had come home.

[@kissherlips1]

@@gavinbolton-ou6tv As a suburban middle class white boy, going to NYC was life-changing. Visiting the Bronx and Yankee Stadium in the late 70s and stepping outside from a bus onto a concrete jungle blew me away. 20 years later walking up the stairs from a lower Village subway stop and being slapped with such a visceral bolt of energy that exuded from the place. Walking the streets feeling more relaxed than any place I'd ever been. Loved it all.

[@tonycammiso9899]

Having spent quite a bit of time in and around NYC, I respectfully disagree with your dad - and commend you - for grasping the brilliance of this picture in capturing - yes - a realistic depiction of the city in laying bare its grimy soul.

[@ffnylonzfan]

as a young man at the time of this movie im not ashamed to say i cried at the end, still love the sound track

[@mmuzzwell3654]

Voight and Hoffman, what a duo. Wish they could make more together. Gratitude for what they made eternal x

[@wonderstuff1971]

I suddenly felt quite depressed we just don't get films with any class anymore stuck with marvel and dc this film poor iconic

[@katarzynamariamuszynska2811]

[@seanohare5488]

[@AmandaEm7]

Love this film it's so sad but their performances are amazing especially Hoffman, it shows how hard it is to survive..times haven't changed at all really

[@peterrollinson-lorimer]

Well observed - the more things change, the more they stay the same.

[@seanohare5488]

True

[@arkady714]

Dustin Hoffman's shouting at the cab wasn't acting and wasn't in the script. The street had been cordoned off to film the scene but the taxi barreled through the set. When he tried to plow past the actors, what you see is his nearly hitting them. Hoffman's furious response "we're walking here!" was genuine.

[@mrwong8584]

apparently it was scripted, the Collector's Edition DVD has interviews that state as much!

[@avinashbhogun]

I wonder if there is any reference to Back to the Future Part II, where Marty Jr crosses the road and says something similar?!

[@sunshineinapouch]

This is false.

[@GordonWilkinson-t8b]

great song great film great actors

[@viz8746]

A lot of people say “The Graduate” or “Bonnie and Clyde” or even “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” was the movie that really changed Hollywood filmmaking - but I’d like to think it was THIS - "Midnight Cowboy" - that really changed the scope and potential of film-making.

[@robertmagnuson8068]

one of the best movies of all time. i have seen it many times and it still touches my heart. wish i could go back to 70,s . love looking at the cars and everything else from this time

[@guillermoelizondo2450]

I just remembered as a child looking at the glorious sun rays pouring through the leaves of a tree. Birds flying everywhere in that same tree. And in the background listening to this song!!!!! It is simply amazing back in 1975!!!!!!!

[@johnjuarez8005]

One of the greatest motion pictures Eva!!!!

[@atlbuck]

Classic movie. Tells quite a story about America. I didnt see it until I was older. I was too young when it came out. But it really struck me when I did see it.

[@eezyclsmooth9035]

Harry Nilsson, the composer and performer of this classic tune had a string of hits. He was a very talented but troubled artist.

[@hammer44head]

Harry didnt compose this song, he did compose many great songs but this wasnt one of them.

[@seanohare5488]

But nilkson wasn't the original songwriter Fred Neil was

[@AliensAnonymous]

Nilsson didn't write this song.

[@MWiggins-m2g]

NIlsson didn't write it, but he definitely made it his own. He wrote many classics, though.

[@rixvspinner]

For a film directed by a British person, Midnight Cowboy has more Americana going for it than most films ever produced in my opinion. Great writing and acting. I saw this X Rated film (I think the first ever) when it came out in the theatres. One of the best movies of all time in my opinion. I'm also a Harry Nilsson fan, have lots of his records.

So much talent in the world of this time, what the feck happened .?

[@atatterson6992]

"Progressive Liberalism" happened

[@wmbrown6]

At 0:40 - this was when the MONY Building's degree sign (on the third lamp bank) took up 14 bulbs in a 6 x 5 grid. That lighting arrangement dated to about 1960-61. And yes, this was the display that entranced Tommy James to co-write "Mony Mony" (which was a hit for him and his group, The Shondells, when this was being filmed). Notice, out of 131 bulbs on the 56th Street side (facing south), two are missing, thus only 129 are in place. (And on the Broadway side, facing east, 128 of 130 bulbs are present.) In 1972-73, the top frontage would be radically altered with the then-current MONY logo, and the degree sign changed to 12 bulbs in a 5 x 5 grid.

To this day, I consider this film to be one of the most depressing I have ever seen. Ten years after this film was made, I lived in NYC and it was pretty much still like this: gritty and immoral, tough and uncompromising. I grew up in seconds because being naive would have spelled disaster.

[@jeffcory1056]

Most depressing for me would be The Misfits, the last film for Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, and Monty Clift, about corralling mustangs in the desert to sell for pet food. I will NEVER watch that again.
