    This is actually a pretty good take on Saturday Night Fever. Silly but a good take.
    I always suspected the racial /ethnic component of this movie was underplayed and not discussed much because it's not usually considered when this film gets talked about.
    Fundamentally Tony hates his neighborhood and wants to get the hell out . That drives everything his character does in the movie

    Everyone keeps saying the same thing and they are correct. The Porkies video just seemed to hit the right algorithm with a bunch of people, myself included, who probably feel like the content and format was personally made for them. From the analysis, the infectious laughter, through to the inevitable “the past was doin its best”, you guys truly are onto something.

    Saturday Night Fever was a very good coming of age drama/ dance film .
    The only problem is that the film became more of a cultural phenomena and societal icon of the time.
    So I would argue people don't really know the movie itself just hype and hyperbole.

    • @Colorcrayons
      @Colorcrayons Před 25 dny +6

      I think you are correct about that. I know I judged it solely around just the hype, but Gene Siskel loved the movie so much that he owned Travolta's suit from the competition.
      I always wondered why the hell a seasoned movie critic would like a movie to that degree (and still do, but thats neither here nor there) and wondered what he saw that I didnt.
      And the truth was, because he actually saw the movie, where I was just a dumb kid poking fun at it because of the hype around it without ever once seeing it beyond a couple clips.
      Once I saw the movie, my mind was changed. I still dont think it is a masterpiece, but I do think it was a competent film that told a pretty good story in the way most late 70's films began to progress into.
      So yeah, this film is a victim of its hype, even to this day, 4 decades later.

    • @writeralbertlanier3434
      @writeralbertlanier3434 Před 25 dny

      @Colorcrayons Yeah you make some good points here.
      I heard about Gene Siskel buying the suit from Roger Ebert whom I knew a little years ago. I guess Gene was a fan of the film or at least of the suit. LOL.

    • @writeralbertlanier3434
      @writeralbertlanier3434 Před 25 dny

      @Colorcrayons I have just come back to writing about film myself so im.not sure if this film has been critically reevaluated or examined again.
      Maybe it needs just that in order for the film to be validated over the hype and legend.

    The way Saturday Night Fever get sold on stuff is kind of hilarious. When it gets talked about it’s like the disco movie, its fun disco sequences with the Bee Gees music. If you have seen it, but you’ve heard it talked about on TV, you might think the tone is similar to other big dancing movie it gets brought up alongside like Dirty Dancing and Footloose. The way it mostly gets talked about you’d think it was Grease. But the main group in Saturday Night Fever are a bunch of dirty bags, they’re not as bad (or fun) as the gang in A Clockwork Orange, but they’re not too far off either.
    It’s been a long time since I’ve seen A Bronx Tale, but I want to say Saturday Night Fever is kind of like A Bronx Tale with disco.

    Royal Carribean has performers who do "Saturday Night Fever" play on their cruise lines. Saw it on the "Liberty of the Sea" on the way to Bermuda last year. Went to it thinking it would be mediocre, cheesy, it was one best live performances I've ever seen. The dancing elite, exrodinairy singing, acting, delighted by the show, amazing talent, they did a great job with the story. Performers from Columbia played the Puerto Rican dance team and they were absolutely awesome! Broadway level talent on a cruise ship. If you get a chance to see it don't miss it!

    Some suggestions for movies to cover that have also aged poorly:
    -Superbad (premise is about rape when you think about it for 2 seconds)
    -I now pronounce you chuck and Larry (obvious homophobia masked as being okay because Adam Sandler gives a speech at the end saying gay is okay)
    -idiocracy (literally promotes eugenics)
    -American Beauty (Kevin spacey having sexual fantasies about a highschooler)
    It would be interesting to see y’all cover more modern movies from the 90s-00s like that because they’re just decent enough that you don’t automatically assume you’re going to see something absolutely fucked like you naturally do with movies from the 80s and prior.
