Urban Cowboy (1980)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 135m
Director: James Bridges
Cast: John Travolta, Debra Winger, Scott Glenn
Synopsis:
A country boy moves to Houston, meets a girl, and has to fight against a con-man's schemes in order to keep her.
Review:
Pointless country and western soap, with endless nightclub scenes and action which revolves inexplicably around a mechanical bull, presumably symbolising the artificiality of city life. Scant opportunities for the writer-director's wonted smart dialogue here, though admirers of Miss Winger can ogle her making out on top of the bull.
