Saturday Night Fever (1977)
John Travolta stars as a local disco kingpin at the peak of his popularity. Once a week, after six full days of work in a Brooklyn paint store, Tony (Travolta) douses himself with Brut cologne, dons a floral bodyshirt, gabardine pants and platform shoes - and ritualistically prepares himself for "Saturday Night Fever." Through the influence of Stephanie - his more sophisticated dance partner - and Tony's brother - a disillusioned priest - Tony begins to question the way his views life and the narrowness of his perspective.

It's strange how the film's goofy and lighthearted reputation is nothing like the movie itself, with its unrelenting tone, repulsive characters, and dark commentary on the sacrifices and alienation of urban living. The dance scenes are singular, but the movie is really brought together as a study of a conflicted character navigating adulthood, sexuality, and masculinity in an urban environment and... not doing well. The redemptive ending is pretty awful though.

Memorable flick with a killer soundtrack and charismatic leads. Now, I have to disagree that the movie trivializes rape. I think it gives a pretty authentic depiction of reality, and the circumstances that can drive a misguided, troubled man to commit the heinous act. It really is unnecessary for the film to feel the need to drive home some overtly obvious message that rape is wrong. I respect that it just keeps it real and depicts "what is" instead of "what should be.”

How much more 70s could this movie be?! The answer is none - none more 70s. It's the ultimate time capsule of that decade in America, and fascinating in that sense alone. The soundtrack is groovin', and young Travolta just oozes charisma. I mean, it's definitely kind of cheesy though, and for a movie that isn't THAT old its very casual "eh, no big deal" attitude towards rape is SUPER uncomfortable. But overall I found it a pretty involving and interesting experience.

Musiken och discokulturen stod mellan mig och den här filmen under l å n g tid. Jag var punk och hatade följaktligen disco. När jag idag såg den i Central Park så var humorn plötsligt påtaglig, framförallt i dansscenerna. Ramhandlingen är förstås mest en ursäkt, men inte fullt så usel som jag mindes den. Fyran är svag, men jag blev på gott humör.

As disco is widely considered a joke now, it is sometimes difficult to take Saturday Night Fever completely seriously. Still, the film rises above the one note that many dance films stop at, which gives it praise. The dichotomy between the club and the street is well done, even if it does go from racist/misogynistic to rapey pretty quickly. It is easy to laugh and have a good time with the dancing, but much of the other subject matter does not age well.

I can't properly rate this. Look, I understand that on one hand, there's an examination of class and privilege in this film. HOWEVER, it's hard to look past the aggressive misogyny that all the male characters have, and the two rapes at the end of the film. Sure, this is a world that Tony tries to escape at the end, but it is hard to look past the ugliness of the previous two hours. THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT THE FILM I WAS EXPECTING!!!

"Life's going nowhere, somebody help me, I'm staying alive" - bleak has never sounded so cool. Travolta's constant attempts to navigate a romance that only manages any real connection on a dance floor for the duration of "More Than A Woman" encapsulates all the futility and excitement of living for the moment, the fever of fleeting passion. The unwanted pregnancy and suicide encapsulate the consequences. You cannot fuck the future. The future fucks you.
