not sad

This is a weird movie. Maybe it was born to a prostitute, and even a little Texas cowboy whose parents didn't know who it was, came to New York. The purpose was to get a different life by serving rich women, completely get rid of the monotonous plate playing, and get rid of the boring and ordinary.
He was cheated out of 20 dollars by Dustin Hoffman, but the two became dependent on each other, because Hoffman, an old cowboy in New York, could provide him with valuable dilapidated housing, advice, and experience.
The winter in New York is extremely cold, they are precarious, and the house is about to be demolished.
During the period, the little cowboy, a heterosexual had to be ravaged by homosexuality, and often met people who didn't pay. He participated in a big climb similar to Andy Warhol, and met a rich woman. The rich woman seemed to intend to introduce him to other rich women. Enjoy.
Unexpectedly, Hoffman's disease is approaching the end of his life. The little cowboy beats the old duck, grabs the money, and hops on his dream Greyhound bus to Florida with his mates.
Hoffman leaned his head against the car window, stared, wearing the last shirt in the shop with palm scribbles, his trousers urinated and changed, his eyes fixed. Died right before heading into town, but the little cowboy has ditched his boots and put on tropical clothes, ready to find a job outdoors, which means health and self-reliance.
Hoffman's dream will be reborn in the little cowboy, which is why there is no sadness.
Our protagonist is the Midnight Cowboy who finally walks into the sunshine. Begins in the car, ends in the car, watch out for the greyhound, every seat has a story, maybe a death.
It is this Dustin Hoffman, who almost stole all the edge of the cowboy. The cowboy only needs to be confused, but Hoffman has to work hard. One is reborn in chaos, the other dies in sobriety.
The cowboy outfit taken off at the end may be a sign of the beginning of a shattered American dream. This shot was in 1969. Don't forget, the Vietnam War is still going on. The nightmare is far from over. Deer hunters, taxi drivers, and strangling war machines to solve their own problems seem to be the norm in the United States. Think about it, we don't seem to know much about the president of the United States who does not start wars.
The consumption pattern of the United States is evolving into an americancum. If half of the Chinese people become Americans, it will be a disaster. Besides, maybe not, it is just the poison of the United States.
If the Chinese people don't know themselves one day, one-fifth of the earth's population will not be peaceful, and the disaster for the people of the earth will not only be severe. In this sense, China will also be the director of the 21st world.

Midnight Cowboy quotes

  • Joe Buck: I like the way I look. Makes me feel good, it does. And women like me, goddammit. Hell, the only one thing I ever been good for is lovin'. Women go crazy for me, that's a really true fact! Ratso, hell! Crazy Annie they had to send her away!

    Ratso Rizzo: Then, how come you ain't scored once the whole time you been in New York?

  • [At the gravesite of his father]

    Ratso Rizzo: He was even dumber than you. He couldn't even write his own name. "X," that's what it ought to say on that goddamn headstone, one big lousy "X". Just like our dump. Condemned by order of City Hall.
