Synopsis:
John Schlesinger's beautifully crafted drama scooped the Best Picture and Best Director Oscars in 1970. It follows the touching friendship between a down-at-heel streetwise New York eccentric and a naive Texas country boy who aspires to be a well-paid gigolo. Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight star as the mismatched duo, both giving accomplished performances, while Brenda Vaccaro and Sylvia Miles offer support. Powerful stuff that's essential viewing
