Midnight Cowboy

“Midnight Cowboy was a life-changing film for me from the camera work through to the character design. I mean you feel so much for these two human beings, you love them and you worry for them and your heart breaks for them. And I don't want to give too much away but that scene when Dustin is finally, finally getting out of New York City, he has the feeling of the warmth of the sun I think coming through the window of that bus as he drifts off into wherever we drift off to.”

“Midnight Cowboy, I love this movie art. Look at that art, god damn it.”

“Midnight Cowboy to me is sort of like the Mona Lisa. It's The Most Beautiful movie from a cinematic standpoint. John Schlesinger, and it's somebody who's not from New York coming to the New York of 1968 or 69 and filming it in its most sort of absurd weird dirty version of itself. And then inside of it are these really extreme characters but filled completely with such great performances from Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman who bring so much emotion and depth.”

“Midnight Cowboy, love this movie so much. Also one of my favorite scenes in this is when he goes upstairs with this woman and the TV's on and they fall in bed and it cuts to the TV and it's cutting and cutting... I just thought that was such a genius way to tell that story.”

“Midnight Cowboy this played at my father's drive-in this is directed by John Schlesinger and Midnight Cowboy when it came out it was rated x and it played at my dad's driving so I told you we were living in utah and this movie the Mormons threw my dad and our family out of utah basically because of this movie...”

“Classic film that I never tired of, Midnight Cowboy. I love also the song that I connected with this film, 'Everybody's Talkin'. So I like how... There's space for you to...”

“I want to start with this movie, Midnight Cowboy. It's one of the first movies that I watched as a... Actress, in the sense of like thinking of myself as an actress. And I just remember watching Dustin Hoffman's Performance and Jon Voight of course, but Dustin's Performance in this was just mind-boggling to me. I couldn't believe that someone could commit to the craft to that extent and so vivid, so alive. It's one of the most alive performances I've ever seen.”
