Midnight Cowboy (1969)
Midnight Cowboy became the first and only X-rated film to win the Best Picture Academy Award. (Over time, the rating was softened to an R) Superb performances and an excellent script have made this Cult Classic easily one of the 10 best films of all time.
Joe Buck, a Texas dishwasher without family, heads east to New York to make his fortune as a stud by selling his body to all rich ladies who have been deprived of their rights by faggot eastern gentlemen.
Instead, he ends up as a 42d Street hustler whose only friend is Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman), low-level street hustler from the Bronx .
