Midnight Cowboy

Beautifully shot and set to bring into light something about hopes, dreams and friendship despite all the hardship one encounters. The characters portray a sense of bleak realism and extreme purity through naïve inteaction with the seedy city life of NYC. Some of the cinematography is up there with the best I have seen (e.g. Warholian party scene and many of the memory flashbacks). Recommended.
