❤ Mr Travolta can do anything he sets his mind to do. He is an EXCEPTIONALLY TALENTED man who can sing, dance, act but I'm sure that he works EXTREMELY hard for many many hours until the character he is playing is PERFECT!! I've heard that he is a kind, trustworthy, loving, helpful friend. He goes above and beyond in his personal life too. He is raising his PRECIOUS children to be great in whatever they choose to do or be!! I wish John and his children nothing but peace and happiness!!! ❤
38 years later and I have seen for myself the effect Urban Cowboy still has on folks old and young. I went to see Mickey Gilley and Johnny Lee on the Urban Cowboy reunion tour back on June 9th in Renfro Valley Kentucky, and not only did they sell out the entire theater but there were people there of all age groups. When my wife and I met them in person after the show they could not have been kinder, the Urban Cowboy Movement shaped and molded Country Music into something special.
I was, at the time of the movie's release, one of the "locals" who was skeptical about Travolta's ability to impersonate a Texas (Spur TX) accent without turning it into implausible farce or hick-like ridicule. But he did a great job!
Quentin Wade it’s possible if he’s referring to Mickey Gilly who is 84 right now. He certainly can have great grandchildren who are old enough now to comment on TH-cam. When my great grandmother was 85, I was 17. She died right at 90 when I was 22.
Cool to see Glenn got a second chance and his big break there. A lot of tough actors were run out of Hollywood for not gelling with the cliquey directors etc.
I grew up on this classic. 💜👌 Debra & John did a great job! Scott Glenn was a convincing ex con & woman abuser! 😆 The entire soundtrack is awesome too.
Me too and am thankful for the great movie and soundtrack. To this day one of the best soundtracks ever. Travolta was always my favorite ❤. I'm trying to have the family I am caregiver for watch the movie to my knowledge they haven't seen it but are big Mickey Gilley fans. I don't know how they let this great movie slip by without seeing it at least once.
I think that's a little debatable that Scott Glenn would never have to audition again after Urban Cowboy, he's done some good films but he's always been more of a character actor. Then again those guys often steal films from the leads
When I moved there in 1983 I can tell you it was much different than today. Back in those days it definitely had more cowboys than city folks even if those cowboys lived in the city. Today it’s much different though.
@@jlobiafra Pasadena is literally inside the Houston metro en near the center, ain't nothing country or rural about it, I understand Huntsville or Dayton but Pasadena is very much part and inside of the city.
@@El.Matamoros. I live in pasadena lol. I went to pasadena high school. I remember the KKK had a headquarters in pasadena. I know pasadena trust me. I was just saying that technically urban cowboy was not houston but pasadena.
@@jlobiafra The KKK is in many cities it's not a country thing that doesn't mean much, I haven't heard of a rally through small farms they're mostly in cities. I grew up in a small town lol surrounded by cows, horses and plantations, Pasadena is far from that, being damn near the center of the city and surrounded by the city of Houston, literally a part and surrounded by the biggest city in Texas. It has diversity gangs crackheads neighborhoods graffiti shopping stores,it's as urban as it gets.
I did not like the way Glenn Scott had an attitude, and to hit Sissy that really made me mad!! They should not have put that in the script!! That was giving a message it is ok to hit women!! Not true
One of the best movies and what a soundtrack!
Travolta, Glenn and Winger were excellent
Yes they were.

I LUV URBAN COWBOY JOHN AND DEBRA PLAYED THE TAR OUTTA THEY ROLES WOW I LUV IT MAN I LUV IT..
My favorite Movie
I thought it was " children shouldn't play with dead things".
Favorite movie!!!
Absolutely. Best film I've ever seen
I love this movie for so many reasons!
Enjoyed all his parts in movie's
Very unique
Tremendous
Was a good performance by John Travolta in Urban Cowboy .... He didn't get the recognition that he deserved ....
*Urban Cowboy* is often overlooked in Travolta's filmography. It's like his hidden gem, his perfect performance.
@@quentindugger5389 Agreed, Sir ..... Along with his performance in "Blow Out" .... Made around the same time ...
@@markchawner1586 Also his performance in " Staying Alive "🕺🏻 that also seems a hidden gem to me, I personally loved John in that one ❣️
@@stayingalivewithsaad5351 *Staying Alive* is another underrated one. Not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.
The movie didn't make an impact like "Saturday Night Fever" but he did an adequate job here.
Truly one of my favorites!
Great movie 🎥
God I love the southern accents, when they say actors they mean ACTORS
We all talk like that.
My great grandpa made the soundtrack for this movie
The film was 40 years ago not 100.
That's badass.
@@quentinwade8506 Not a cool comment

He did an awesome job!
my favorite movie
This great movie I seen it about 100 times
"...couldn't Direct traffic." LOL. Great come back to a director.

I love ya sissy !!! 🤠

Scott Glenn!!! 😍
I just learn this movie was filmed in texas in houston some scenes filmed where my business it’s now days
🤩

Check you Scott Glen in The Challenge.
Scott glen as sub captain and climber in vertical limit.....great movies
If Scott had turned the role down i wonder if Sam Elliott would have been next in line.
Still no grey hair John?
He has shaved his head now.
Houston isn't country it's a city woth city ppl, the biggest city in Tx with diversity and neighborhoods
When I moved there in 1983 I can tell you it was much different than today. Back in those days it definitely had more cowboys than city folks even if those cowboys lived in the city. Today it’s much different though.
Gilleys was in pasadena Texas outside of Houston
