Midnight Cowboy (1969)

Midnight Cowboy is a poignant and influential film released in 1969. Directed by John Schlesinger, it follows the story of Joe Buck (played by Jon Voight), a naive Texan who moves to New York City with dreams of becoming a gigolo. Struggling to survive, he befriends a small-time hustler named Ratso Rizzo (played by Dustin Hoffman), and their unlikely friendship becomes the heart of the film. Midnight Cowboy became the first X-rated film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, showcasing its gritty portrayal of urban life. Immerse yourself in the soundscape of this iconic movie by playing and downloading its original soundtrack here.

A basic training as rigorous as the star football players themselves.

A big wet one till I see you.
A damn alley cat.
A friend I did a favor for give it to me.

A production in Hollywood's finest tradition.
A very expensive stud, and I happen to be his manager.

A woman with children wouldn't have time.

All right. Yeah, you're a hustler.
Along by now. You understand me?
And butterfly thoughts that glitter in your mind.
And end up a hunchback like my old man?
And for a stud in New York, that's a handicap.
And get your skinny butt moving. Earn $20 worth of management,
And he's going and swimming, like...
And I gotta get him south quick as I can.
And I was hoping to get a look at the Statue of Liberty.
And I...
And I'd really be a gorgeous chick, right, baby?
And I'm gonna buy you a drink. What do you think of that?
And I'm looking for the Statue of Liberty.
And if you ain't man enough to do it for yourself,
And in the morning call the bank and stop payment. Go ahead.
And ladies.
And like that ain't enough, I gotta pee all over myself.
And maybe I do believe all that damn stuff and I...
And my hair, it's fur, you know,
And pull this kind of crap?
And right away they gotta supersede their authority.
And see what happens.
And she busts out bawling when I ask her for money.
And that's my remedy for insomnia.
And the next one is O 62, ladies and gentlemen.
And the weatherman says it's going down tonight.
And then somebody yells, Hey, Ratso.
And there you are, you handsome devil, you.

Because, hell, I ain't no kind of hustler.
Because, I mean, like, what's the whole point of this trip, anyway? You know?
Beg your pardon, ma'am.
Behind your back I've seen them laughing at you.
Besides, you look very elegant.

Hi. I just got your message. How do you feel?
Him, I placed with O'Daniel about two weeks ago.
His name is Joe Buck. He's a cowboy. He just... He just came in from Texas.
Ho, ho, ho.
Ho, ho, ho.
Hold on. Hold it right there. You think I'm that kind of son of a bitch?
Hoping to get a look at what?
How about that? And you're gonna tell me what appeals to women?
How about you take me to meet this Mr. O'Diddle bird, right now?
How am I supposed to know? You gotta tell a person these things.
How do you like that O'Daniel, flipping out like that?
How far you headed?
How long did I hold up traffic just to get out, I ask you.
How much you want, now?
How you doing? You're getting your picture took?
How's he gonna get his hand into your pocket?
How's that strike you?
Hurry up, now. Get your ass in there now. He's waiting. Go ahead.
I agree, but for that service I charge one buck taxi fare.
I ain't dressed for a party.
I ain't sleepy.
I ain't sore.
I ain't talking priest talk.
I ain't that dumb.
I almost hate to bring up business.
I believe it's as fine a time as I've ever had in my damn life.
I bet you paid a pretty price for it. Am I right?
I bet you're lonesome.
I can't go home or she'd die.
I could just kill you with my bare hands!
I could open up an office in there. Come on.
I don't believe in any of that crap.
I don't believe this crowd. There's something going on here.
I don't even know what your name is. I wanna know. What is it?
I don't have it. What are you gonna do to me?
I don't have to do that. I've got no need to expose myself.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know nothing about it.
I don't like to have a lot of, you know, cheap stuff on my back.
I don't mean now. I mean before then.
I don't need a comb.
I don't think I can walk anymore.
I don't wanna be late for my date with Morey.
I don't wanna say hello to the dog.
I don't want your books. How much is that worth?
I don't want your damn watch.
I got a letter here from a sister
I got eight bucks in my damn pockets. Twenty more come Thursday, boy.
I got his tongue hanging out.
I got it.
I got places to go, right?
I got some of that stuff you like to swill too.
I got this damn thing all figured out.
I gotta get a doctor.
I gotta get out of here.
I gotta have money.
I gotta have more than 10. I gotta have $57.
I gotta lay down.
I had this image of a policeman without his stick,
I hate to ask you, but you're such a doll.
I just had this funny image.
I just wanna ask you one question, cowboy.
I know enough to know that that great big dumb cowboy crap
I know.
I like the way I look.
I love everything in the theatre. I would like to die on the stage.
I loved your friend, Mr. Needleman, the last of the great King Midases.
I mean it, damn it, where do you live?
I mean, can you see this guy
I mean, I goddamn invited you, didn't I?
I mean, I'm used to these types that get their kicks picking on cripples.
I mean, it just so happens that in my own place, my name
I mean, that is one hell of a shirt.
I mean, there must be an easier way of making a living than that.
I mean, why go to all the expense?
I mean, yes, yes. Please go.
I mean, you gotta get yourself some kind of management.
I mean, you see what I'm getting at here?
I must have got the wrong impression then.
I only get carsick on boats.
I really would.
I said, a person's gotta make a living.
I said, wait.
I simply don't have it, Joe.
I slipped on a banana peel. Come on. I gotta sit. I feel crummy.
I spilled some on my pants.
I stole it for you. The goddamn thing's 10 sizes too big for me.
I sure have enjoyed being here.
I swear to God. I swear on my mother's eyes. Here, nothing.
I think I'm gonna write a letter to the mayor.
I think per capita, on a given day, there's probably
I think that's sick. I think that's sick.
I think we'd better find somebody and tell them that I'm here.
I think you put your finger on it.
I understand. A dame starts crying, I'd cut my heart out for her.
I want it on.
I want my money, goddamn it.
I want to give you a present, for your trip.
I want you to have it. You don't have to be a Catholic.
I want you to take it. It's for helping me be good.
I warn you, Joe Buck.
I was going to lick the sweat off.
I was just admiring that colossal shirt.
I was just noticing that you're out of salami.
I was lying.
I was, Joe... Joe, I was...
I wasn't calling anyone. I was...
I wasn't calling anyone. I wasn't calling anyone.
I wet my pants. The seat's all wet.
I'd be happy to oblige.
I'd call that a very minor operation.
I'd consider it a privilege if you would have dinner with me.
I'd say she was good for 10 bucks, but I'll ask for 20.
I'd say you know exactly what you want.
I'll be goddamned if I'll wear it.
I'll be in Florida.
I'll get you some soup then.
I'll give you $5 for it.
I'll just tell them:
I'll leave a TV dinner in the fridge.
I'll tell them you're with the rodeo.
I'll tell you the truth. I ain't a for real cowboy,
I'll tell you what, you can keep all the rest of the junk
I'll tell you. Forget it. I'll do... I'll take the 10.
I'm a hustler.
I'm a kind of a hustler.
I'm a truly dangerous person, I am.
I'm awful damn sorry you're sick.
I'm calling for Miss Beecham
I'm getting you some soup.
I'm going to Florida tomorrow.
I'm gonna cash in on that, right?
I'm gonna have to have another 10 just to cover expenses, all right?
I'm gonna run you ragged!
I'm gonna shake you out right here and now.
I'm gonna show you my darn problem.
I'm gonna use you.
I'm heading on up to New York City, ma'am.
I'm here on a paper manufacturer's convention,
I'm impressed. You're a killer.
I'm inviting you. I mean, if you're not located, I got a place.
I'm lonesome, so I'm a fornicator,
I'm lonesome, so I'm a thief.
I'm new here in town. Just in from Texas, you know,
I'm not exaggerating.
I'm not.
I'm Rico, all the time, OK?
I'm scared.
I'm sorry, I...
I'm sorry, I'm usually not like this.
I'm talking about what people believe.
I'm Townsend P. Locke, from Chicago. Call me Towny.
I'm usually a very calm and collected person.
I'm wet.
I'm zipping your fly. What the hell do you think I'm doing?
I've been thinking. I hope we're not gonna have a lot of trouble
I've heard it all and I'm sick of it.
I've heard it all.
I've never seen you change your underwear
I've prayed in the saloons.
I've prayed in the streets.
I've prayed in the toilets.
I've watched it touch many stars.
If I can find the hole that's...
If I had my choice between the two, I'd come back as a president.
If I'd of caught up with you, there would be one dead Ratso
If someone does me bad like you...
If you hurry up, you'll catch the supper show.
If you let me have the suitcase.
If you need anything, there's beer and stuff behind me. Anything you want.
If you think I'm crippled, you should've caught him at the end of the day.
If you wanna call it by its name, that's strictly for fags.
If you want the word on that brother and sister act,
If you're gonna shiver, put your blankets up more.
If you're sitting over here, and he's sitting over there,
In case you didn't happen to notice it,
In fact, in the whole goddamn metropolitan area.
In fact, you can't scratch yourself without getting a bellybutton
In fact, you just sit comfy and I'll cut it out with my fingernail file, Ratso.
In Florida, you got a terrific amount of coconut trees there.
In New York, no rich lady with any class at all
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit...
Incidentally, how much is this gonna cost me?
Is about the invasion of stylish furniture...
Is Enrico Salvatore Rizzo.
Is he all right?
Is he kin to you?
Is it because I'm a stablehand?
Is that hot?
Is that it right there?
Is that your problem, baby?
Is this the Gentleman's Escort Service?
Isn't this really a case of conning a lot of lonely people?
It ain't right cheating from a pregnant lady.
It all depends on what you believe in, you know?
It don't matter where, so long as He gets that prayer.
It don't say nothing about you. Don't say nothing about you.
It goes... It goes other places.
It makes me feel good. It does.
It might be terrific for you.
It occurred to me I'm expecting a phone call back at the hotel.
It says, Broadway and Harmony Lane,
It was beautiful, Mor, though. God, stop.
It's 28 degrees,
It's crazy, a stud like you paying that dame
It's free, then I ain't stealing.
It's good.
It's hot. Let's go.
It's hot. Watch out.
It's just one more up.
It's just till the Dramamine works. She gets carsick.
It's like heroin. Death is like heroin.
It's like nothing. It's like death. It's just nothing.
It's like what?
It's me.
It's not bad?
It's not far.
It's not worth anything. I can't go home without it either. Please.
It's OK, folks, everything's all right. Nothing to worry about.
It's OK, folks. Nothing to worry about.
It's right there in the corner. You wanna get it?
It's so difficult. I...
It's so difficult. I...
It's stupid, a stud like you paying. I mean, you don't wanna be stupid.
It's tendrils reaching out into space sometimes.
It's up in Central Park, taking a leak.

Joe?

John Wayne. Are you gonna tell me he's a fag?
Just another convenience, eh?
Just because I happened to get out of a car. Would you believe that?
Just come to look around a little bit, you know.
Just get me on a bus. You ain't sending me to Bellevue.
Just like our dump. Condemned by order of city hall.
Just open your heart and let it roll.
Just reach over and close his eyes.
Just take your hands off of me. Don't touch me.
Just when things going right for me, you gotta pull a damn stunt like this.
Keep going, up to the top. Right in the corner there, the top one.
Keep your blankets on you.
Keep your meat hooks off my radio.
Keeps the punks and the creeps out of here.
Key to Room 514, please, sir.
Kindly consideration, first.
Kiss me, Joe. Kiss me.

Let me put this thing over you.
Let's see how you look.
Let's...
Like 9:30.

Like sometimes your spirit goes up, sometimes it goes...
Like turning on the charm for some pretty little blond lady, you know?
Listen, I have to take a taxi. I need a few bucks.
Listen, I think we struck gold. This is one high class chick.
Listen, Marjorie, you should try it.
Listen, sweetie. Why don't you run along, and take the number.
Listen, that... Kissing Crazy Annie, man.

Look at how big you are, goddamn it!
Look at that there. That's some good, healthy stuff for you.
Look, I want you to stay, all right?
Look, I'm eating this shit, Ratso. Good.
Look, I'm not forcing you. I mean, like, who's forcing you?
Look, with these gals that wanna buy it, most of them are old and dignified.
Looks like you've been locked out of your room, buddy,
Love me.
Love you, kid.
M O N Y, money.
M O N Y.
Ma'am, Shirley, I sure hate to trouble you, but...
Ma'am?
Make your old grandma proud.
Make your old grandma proud.
Make yourself comfortable?
Mama? A coincidence. Guess who was being discussed.
Maybe if you didn't call me ma'am, things might work out better.
Maybe we ought to take a little nap...
Maybe you gotta think about those things for a while.
