If the young people at that time couldn't dance disco, it was like a local turtle; if anyone went out with a dual-card tape recorder and played disco while walking, that was a local tyrant! In the deafening bombardment of the disco, the young man twisted his butt, the aunt danced the square dance, and the lifeless city finally had a belated passion.
Night Fever
Bee Gees - The Ultimate Bee Gees: 50th Anniversary Collection
Speaking of disco, Saturday Night Fever is the pinnacle of disco cinema. It was a hit that year, and more importantly, its soundtrack was one of the best-selling records of all time. The Little Bees/Bee Gees/Bee Gees became the most popular group in the world, dominating the pop music scene in the late 1970s.
"Saturday Night Fever" is also John Travolta's famous work, he was worshipped by fans because of his glamorous dance in the film, which started his road to superstardom. Although John has become a "fat man" after he reaches middle age, his charm is greatly reduced, and he is not as well maintained as Tom Cruise, but there are still many fans who still stick to him, like Uncle Cage, who loves box office poison. In the same way, I have the good memories of their youth in my heart, and I can't bear to abandon them when they grow old and ugly!
The significance of "Saturday Night Carnival" is not limited to the level of pop culture, and it still has the value of appreciation in contemporary times. The film is called the disco version of Rebel Without a Cause, and it accurately shows the empty and confused life of young people at the time. The protagonist Tony likes to dance disco. He showed his youthful vigor in the hot dance and almost lost himself in the neon lights. There is a plain looking girl who is his original dance partner, but Tony is not satisfied with her and finally dumps her after catching other beauties, but she is still entangled. One scene in the film was very cruel. The girl waited for Tony to come out of the disco and gave him a handful of things. Tony saw that it turned out to be several condoms. He threw it on the ground in disgust and walked away. street.
In the end, Tony's friend actually fell to his death while climbing a bridge. He just wanted to make his humble self get more attention from others. This accident caused Tony and his group to finally fall apart. Although Tony won the disco competition in the end, he has no sense of accomplishment, because his life has not changed at all because of this, he is still a diaosi young man working in a paint shop. And the dance partner he just got is just a green tea bitch who can sacrifice himself for the sake of superiority, even though she looks proud.
The flashy world is always full of hypocrisy, and there is always an inferiority complex under the bright appearance. "Saturday Night Fever" vividly shows the restlessness, rebellion, ignorance, hesitation, money worship, and weakness of young people. It also shows their unscrupulous personality traits, eager to be noticed by more people, passionate and fickle. In fact, young people today are the same, but they are more introverted, more self-centered, and less social.
The director of the film, John Benderham, made many popular movies in the late 1970s and early 1990s. In addition to this film, there are also "Blue Thunder", "Thunderbolt 5", "Closer", etc., which are all blockbusters, but After 2000, he moved to the TV circle for development, and his works include "Nikita", "Arrow" and so on. He is a typical artisan director, one step away from a master, but never close to him.
