Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?
you literally uploaded a clip from a movie and put your own watermark on it
Apparently Travolta doesn't recall the window-shopping segment
You should DISCOunt the critics' ratings.
@@rcnelson I see what you did there, you clever rat!
A seven. It is a brilliant beginning. I watched half of it. A commentary, before, after and during would have made it better.
I saw the trailer for this movie at the Benson theater in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. You could feel the audience reaction when we realized that the movie was filmed literally outside the theater. People couldn't control themselves and broke out into spontaneous conversation and applause. I decided to return to the Benson to see the film when it opened there. The effect on the audience was electrifying.
18th Ave
That's a neat idea
It's electrifying! Oops, wrong movie.
COOL memory!!!
Were you with your boyfriend?
Only Travolta could look this cool carrying a gallon of paint.
I've strolled the streets with a machete, a roll of bubble wrap, detergent, my dinner and a dog in separate situations to this tune.
A 27 dollar shirt?? That's like 90 bucks in todays $
kkkkk só nos anos 70 mesmo para se ter umas cenas dessas
agree. It was probably empty.
or charm a customer who waited half an hour for it!
One of my legs is slightly longer than the other, I grew up way after this movie and still my friends would say I walked with a strut like Saturday Night Fever. 😅
You didn’t know it then but those were the best times in your life.❤
Amen
I was 18, SF was fun then in discos
Spot on. I was 12 and life fun. Then I grew up.
i turned 11 in the summer of 77 so no going to any disco for me, but i loved music since i was 6 so i loved the soundtrack and got to see the movie years later
because it was not suitable for young kids. Anyway i grew up with 60's and 70's music and my best days were in the 80s, so in the disco 2.0 era, and is because
i grew up from a older teenager to a young adult in that decade, so those were my best days and i'm glad that i ws at the right time and place and age
because the 80's were the best times the western world has ever seen. The 90's were also okay but from 2000 until now the world has gone insane
and now i'm glad that i'm no longer a young dude, because i don't want to be a part of today's young people because they all are weak, woke, feminized,
political correct idiots. So to hell with the modern world, i lived my best years in the best decades, and that was worth more than all the money in the world!
Hey man, 66 and still struttin' except now when I oogle the ladies I am a "dirty old man" but lovin it.
For those who don't know, it was John's real sister who served him the two slices and his mom was the lady waiting for him in the paint store... I saw this movie in the Bronx with my cousin, we loved it so much we snuck in to see the next showing. After the movie, it was hard not to be like Tony Manero... Aaah the good ol days.
Your kidding me, I never knew...thank you..
@@jethro1260 You're very welcome.
I lived in the city too. Queens. But I drove a taxi all over - I drove through the Bronx the night of the blackout. That was an experience. But I loved those pizza joints all over the city. I was trying to remember how much a slice was back then. A lot of the pizza places I know closed, and the new ones don't seem as italian, or as good. In the old days there was a fresh pie coming out of the oven every fifteen minutes. I never saw anyone eat two slices at once like Tony did in this opening scene.
@@ppumpkin3282 I hear ya... We'll never get those days back again and we were lucky enough to live in that era... I did see a few dudes mimick that 2 slice scene, it was kinda cringey to watch. I also witnessed a few occasions with imbeciles mimicking the White Castle scene when they stuffed a bunch of sliders in their mouth... All in all, I miss those days dearly.
@@ppumpkin3282 Btw, I think a slice was around 45 cents then and if you ask for a pie in a pizza place in the south, they look at you like you have 2 heads.
Travolta's strut/swagger in this opening scene is iconic. He just oozed cool charisma in this legendary flick.
The chick in the video wasn't nearly as impressed, she wanted none of that 😂
@@ckobo84 That's true but it sure did make an impression on Donna Pescow's(sp?) character :)
I've always felt he was doing a good-natured imitation of the typical confident straight guy, and it sure worked.
@@ckobo84 She did want it just not on the street. Simps have no regard for protocol and it explains why so many incels.
Check out, the reenactment of this iconic, scene, John Travolta,as Santa Claus, struttin down the street. Capital One, commercial 👍. When I first saw it, I was like 😳, is that John Travolta, and there's Donna Pescow.... 😅😅😊 Awesome 👍
I can't believe how long ago all of this was in fashion. I loved this era because it was unique. The dancing was unbelievable. It kept us from getting in trouble.
And getting fat 😂
@@jrr3613 True! Disco was always a great workout. My music? Ah, not so much. You could get fat to my tunes. Take care and thanks for your reply!
Wow maam you were very lucky to be a teenager back then
So true, the internet, cell phones, really ruined the way humans interact and socialize
@@anonanon7235 I totally agree, but I keep writing music the old fashioned way, hoping the new generation will like what I bring back. Thanks for your reply and take care.
I grew up in Africa, in the now country Zimbabwe. The 70's was when i was 18, my father owned a club and this is the music we listened to as well as black funk and soul. Incredible time.
The film, the colors, the grain, the lenses, the angles, creativity, freedom. When things had a soul and were not programmed.
Things do have a Soul...blessed bee 🐝 ...
You sound like my father back in 1971, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
My shoes have a sole!
@@babthookawell said
@@babthooka So does your ahhh.
Travolta owned that street! His screen presence was mesmerising.
Bullshit. His character is a full on, affectatious, strutting peacock who window shops like a woman. Cringeworthy.
Kensington?
Look at John Travolta he had class in those days we had class and manners nowadays we got no class and no manners at all
@@anthonytheitalian2863 True. Also, people are not allowed to flirt anymore. We can't even compliment a good looking girl and say nice things without a herd of her friends ganging up on you and threatening to call the cops for attempted rape. Times have changed , my friend. I was six years old when this flick came out. I've seen it so many times already. ...takes me back to the good ole days.
@@ShlomoKuhn-Silverstein "Also, people are not allowed to flirt anymore." - Wrong. "We can't even compliment a good looking girl and say nice things without a herd of her friends ganging up on you and threatening to call the cops for attempted rape. " - Wrong.
"I was six years old when this flick came out." - No you didn't. Don't lie.
"takes me back to the good ole days." - the good ole days that you weren't an adult for?
You are so full of shit.
Saw this movie 18 times back in 1978 great film.
One of the greatest movie soundtracks ever!! The Bee Gees rocked!
INDEED! 2nd only to the one from the greatest movie nobody saw- The Commitments, by the genius Alan Parker. That soundtrack is incredible. ❤🎷🎺🎹
Tony is so utterly conscious of himself, how he thinks others are perceiving him, and just complete assuredness that even toting a can of paint, he's a player.
You are reading way too much into that bud.
@@rickwilliams967 Or, he likes it in the hoop.
@@rickwilliams967 half the fun!
Narcissism at it's finest.
@@henrycodm896 well, whatever it is, Travolta captured it perfectly
Brilliant opening. So much can be read into Travolta’s character in those few minutes. The sync of his walk and paint can movement exactly to the beat foreshadows his dancing and ability. His swagger and his still boy to man. That’s 1st class directing.
❤
Also the fact that he's obviously nipping out the store to buy a can of paint from a rival store while the customer is waiting and he still finds time to buy a pair of shoes, flirt, eat pizza, put a downpayment on a shirt, flirt again shows you his priorities are clothes, women and himself, definitely not work!
The movie itself is actually pretty bad tho. It’s really only famous for the dance scene.
You need to calm down
@@someguy42093 _ABSOLUTELY!_
The Bee Gees turned this song up, John Travolta dancing to it turned this song up even more, both the group and John made this move and themselves a classic 😌💖.
You'll never see those days again😢
Immigration 😢
@@reginaldforthright805 lol, NY was always full of immigrants going back over a century. Just be honest: you're only crying about the _skin color_ of the immigrants.
@@reginaldforthright805 Yeah, those Italians, lol.
@@eyesears113 Europeans are not the problem

There are certain races and cultures that work in certain places in the world,
Have you seen the fkkn state of the Uk?
I was 16 when this came out, my girlfriend and I went to see it at the theater 7 weekends in a row. We were OBSESSED!! The music just blew us away!
Same age same obsession, It was shown for 3 months at the ABC cinema , Went to see it 13 times and still watch it on tv , have it also on dvd, shame , I sold the soundtrack LP . It just bring me back to my teens .
I saw it 7 times as well. Couldn't stay away.
Those were simple and happy times.
The talk in the media was... is the bee gees music driving the music or is the movie driving the bee gees album... both were box office block busters
Click the 'edit' button; you meant to say "driving the movie" (not the "music"). But it was certainly mutually beneficial--the Bee Gees profited as much from the movie's exposure of their music as the movie was catapulted to heights it would never have reached without its now-iconic contributions from the Brothers Gibb.@@tomthrower3245
I was 17 years old when this movie came out, I was living the disco life. I am 63 years old now but that was me at 17, the hair the cloths the gold chains. Man I had a freakin awesome time so innocent so much fun and everything just came sooooooo easy.
Just a year older than you but we definitely lived parallel lives! Those were the days and I danced every second of it I could.😁💃🏻. Taught myself to dance and became a little disco queen at 18. 💃🏻🪩💃🏻🕺 The absolute best times and memories of any period of my life thus far. It was really magical and I came of age at the perfect time!❤
And the 77 Monte Carlos in canarsie.
The bass so loud it thumped in your chest on the dance floor.
Yeah, back then the battle of the sexes wasn't a big deal like today. Women believe feminist myths about their capabilities now, try and flop at science, then blame it on 'the patriarchy' as an ego defense.
Give us some advice how to live, we have nothing now, women are hos, we will never get home, we will stay poor forever enslaved in the new autoritarian regimes they are getting ready for us...
I love how it’s a bright sunny day and all of a sudden it’s raining.
It be like that sometimes
@@famousbowl9926 maybe. I just think they filmed it over a course of time and didn’t pay attention.
Well, the lady did complain that it took him half an hour. Weather can change.....
@@tomaccino 🤣 good one
You ever been in New York? It's like Dublin, you can have 4 seasons in one day.
The Bee Gees, John Travolta, and SNF kicked off the whole disco era. That’s legendary.
I'm having trouble imagining someone trying to sell this script to a studio exec.
Script writer: "Yea, it's about a kid that works in a hardware store by day and go's to discos on Saturday night to dance"
Studio exec: "Uh............WHAT?"
Who knew it would be a movie that would define a decade.
This movie killed disco....made it mainstream
@@joeyjbjoe all the better for it
They were 3 or 4 years behind disco.
@@realfacthunt But they made disco into a global phenomenon.
That music, Travolta, the train, two pieces of pizza, the street, it was all authentic! You could FEEL the atmosphere, pure art!
Definitely! Authentic New York City! A timeless classic. Travolta had the looks and swagger to carry this off with perfection 🕺
I found myself reminiscing about the taste of new york pizza. The water and altitude of Los Angeles where i live now dont add up to pizza that is as flavorful!!
I could smell the pizza
*Fact is its a Real pizza shop and that woman was his real elder sister and old woman buying the pot of paint is his real mom!!* 💡
@@afriend9428 haha. But what about Ellen? Where’s Ellen Travolta?
Still one of the coolest movies ever with the backdrop of 70's New York.
No doubt
I saw this in Bombay in 1980 when I was 18, oh what a feeling. Loved the movie and Bee Gees ever since. 70’s and 80’s rocked.
My mother took my cousins and i to see this at the drive in theater in a 1964 4 door impala. A car load for $5 bucks. Lookin back it was the best of times!!
The mere fact that this opening movie sequence with it's anthem-like pulsating soundtrack, is still being talked about now, speak volumes of its relevance.
@@Phil_X
We'll see...
The greatest movie about growing up ever made, and probably Gene Siskel would agree with me.
@@dr.juerdotitsgo5119
💥Possibly true, Doc.
Gene's fave movie of all time, struck a nerve in him, seen it gazillion times, owns the white suit of Travolta acquired from a Hollywood auction --- ■
@@denniseudela411 Yes lol. I didn't know he went as far as saying it was his all-time fav, but I can see that. Way more than just a portrait of a generation.
No it just means people don't have a life.
-Helen Travolta (John's mother) as paint store customer
-Ann Travolta (John's sister) as pizza girl
Who was the women who didn't want anything to do with him. Very hot.
that was my mum ,,,, lol
He handled both situations like a pro
Seriously 😮
That strut is the bomb!
No one struts like John.
I absolutely agree . John walking down the street and staying alive music playing is sensational. Then he pays 7.98 for the paint and gives the paint to the lady for 10.98 is priceless.
Well, maybe not so Price Less! Ha! Lol ...blessings...
It also shows that John has a female gait (being a FTM); you can always tell by the way they walk they're womanly men, no time to talk.
@@wendynine-sc2sv she was mad waiting a half hour and he charmed her pants off. Then still charges extra three $$.
@Stevie-hn7mp I know! Priceless, right? In one way or another! Found out yesterday on an Older movie site that the elderly lady was his real mother, and the young pizza worker was his sister!
@@wendynine-sc2sv Damn, I was going to comment that and you were first!
The swagger, the look the bell bottoms...
Fantastic !!!
I agree! The shoes, the hair, the jacket! Everything about this image was fashionable and iconic.
Bell bottoms were a good look. Maybe not the huge sail sized ones, but the moderately sized ones were.
Better than those skinny high water jeans emos wear.
Are they bell bottoms or flares?
I saw this with my friends in 1978 in Bergen (Norway). We were 16. Good times 😊
The legendary walk that would define many generations with the iconic music which still to this day continues to ooze so much coolness
Yes ☝️☝️
I was a 12 year old "disco sucks" rock n roller when this movie came out. I am now in my 50's and can't get enough of the Bee Gees music and this epic movie.
Same haha
Stay a rocker , I am
I'm one of those who is a rocker, but totally in love with the Bee Gees too. Music has no boundaries. 😎
I was a grunge, punk, and metal kid in the 90's. These days I've been appreciating more dance and hip-hop music I would've passed up now that I'm older and more open-minded.
You fall into cliques when you're young which is a shame because that prevents you from branching out and expanding your experiences.
I’m such a rocker I boycott the rock hall when they started putting disco, rap and hip hop in.
I worked at a movie theater when this film opened. I must have seen it 100 times and never got sick of it.
What movie is it
How many GF’s did you sneak in the back door to watch it free😂
That's so awesome! Good memories. This is my favorite movie ever.
Come on who doesn't strut when they here this song playing. 2024 i still got Travolta fever long live Disco...
* *hear*
This was my era i didnt appreciate it then but i do now its 2024 a d thngs are terrible today 😢
This is More Proof that Great Music will never go out of style…..
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the look of concern on the face of his boss when Manero (Travolta) tells the customer he's going to knock a dollar off the price... only for that look to turn to relief when Manero tells then tells her the price! With just two expressions you immediately know his thoughts and opinion of his employee. That's some great acting right there.
The customer is Helen Travolta... John's mother in real life.
@@lawrencelazar3508Thank you for that, I never knew 🙂
also the guy in the background demanding a gallon of exactly this same paint... funny sequence.
@@lawrencelazar3508 and his sister was th eone who gave him his two slices of pizza.
Very astute observation!
I used to wear similar shoes 10 hours in the lab. No more 😂
This is the definition of charisma.
Travolta had such unbelievable stage presence, he was like Elvis back then. Just perfect looking and perfect the way he moved
Elvis? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
@@dplouroyes, Elvis. I was there, four years old back at the time this movie played, and I really couldn't tell them apart . Both are handsome, dark-haired guys, who look good both in a leather jacket and in a white suit, who both can dance and sing, no matter if they were in a fifties- or seventies-setting.
@@CanalPSG Sorry but I only knew Elvis as a drug addicted fat guy with an incredible bad taste wardrobe and without any talent left whatsoever. I was 18 in 1977 when I first saw the movie. And Travolta still rocks almost in his seventies.
@@dplouro I was too young for that part of Elvis-history. All I got to see were memorial shows that glorified the best of Elvis.
he definitely has magnetism and very handsome bloke
The movie opened in Westwood, Ca (next to UCLA). When this opening scene appeared, the entire theater was ROCKIN! I will never forget it.
I know that theater! My son lives nearby and I go to the Starbucks next door. That theater i# in many movie scenes!
Cool Memory
I don't quite get it, it is a interesting opening no doubt, but what do you mean rockin? Was John Travolta a big star back then? I am asking sincerely.
@@IshmaelDoe r u trying to to be funny?
@@jay5jay I don't live in US nor was I born around that time, people in where I live only make a sound in theater when it is funny, and almost never cheers. So I just want to know what they were (talking like mentioned in another post, or cheering..etc) and why.
One thing I also love about this opening is it shows a classic time in NY, the rawness, electricity, connection of just walking down 86th street in Brooklyn.
John Travolta has come a long way since then, hasn't he.
I can't believe this came out 1977.
How time flies.
So iconic that when giving emergency CPR, people are told to use this beat when giving chest compressions. Travolta's sister Ann gives him the 2 slices of pizza and his mother, Helen, is the lady in the paint store who gets the $1 discount.
Never mind those gal's who was that lady he was chasing down the street 😂😂😂 too funny 😊
@@johnrozs I have no idea. There's a very good shot of her face. You'd think that after all these years someone would have been able to identify her by now.
@@johnrozs: Which one? There were two.
@@timonsolus He only chases one of them, so it's kind of obvious which one he meant.
@@puppethound: No, he started chasing the first woman too, but gave up sooner.
Travolta was on top of the world
Iconic tunes, timeless sway,
In every heart, they find their way.
1977, what a year, Saturday Night Fever and Star Wars ...
And Close Encounters.
Punk Rock and Disco
And Annie Hall
Elvis died.
And real rock was 70s rock PERIOD.
Ah, Barry Gibb…so many great songs, but this one is his immortal contribution. It will never get old.
Barry didn't write it alone. It was written by Barry Robin and Maurice.
Two seconds into the scene and you're completely mesmerized.
One of the most iconic movie openings ever. When I saw this in a theater when it first opened, I KNEW the movie, music, and Travolta were all going to be legendary. And it launched a whole new era.
John Travolta really gave the new meaning for the word cool.
Filmed on 86th street, in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn ... my home turf. Some of the dance sequences were filmed at Philip's Dance Studio, on the corner of west 7th street and Bay Parkway ... Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Next door to Simon's Autorama. My block. Ya hadda see all the film crews, extras and all. Crazy. Before Philip's it was Jamar ... bowling alley and pool room. Played there and set up the duck pins, too. Cleaned the tables for a few extra bucks. Yeah ... memories.
Whatever you do- do NOT go back and see what that area looks like TODAY. OMG it's dreadful. rips my heart out.
@@LannieLord Really? When were you there last, Lannie?
Truly one of The Most Drop-Down GORGEOUS men of the 70's...and to this very day! 💝😍🌹
New York Was Big With This Movie And "Studio 54".
This movie was a sensation, like Star Wars. Nobody had HEARD a movie soundtrack this popular this since "The Graduate" of 1967 with Simon & Garfunkel's hit sound track. People all saw the movie and the next week EVERYONE was signing up for Disco Dancing lessons. Seriously. I was 15 and after some pleading from my widowed mom, she dragged me to those lessons for 2 years, dancing with all the white-haired ladies !!
I'd go back to the 70's in a heartbeat.
So would I , everything's gone to rack and ruin in the 21st century tbh
Hell yes
I'm in Belfast. The 70s here were grim.
What a Great Era, Love the 70’s..
I was 6 years old when the movie came out, those were last few years of 70's fashion style.
I remember, mostly because of photos my uncles and other family members dressed like him during my Bday parties as a child. I remember staying alive soundtracks played even during my child parties.
When 80's came, a lot of changes happened not just in the music culture but the fashion culture. Sneakers and Casual shoes quickly replaced those high heel man shoes and bell-bottoms pants were a thing of the past.
I miss being young. It's just not the same anymore.

I saw this in 1977 and was stunned by how good it was. I only went because my girlfriend talked me into it. She hated it due to the grittiness but I was blown away. Travolta was amazing.
This is one of my favourite movies. It's probably in my top 5. I love it!
It goes from sunshine to a rainy day in less than a minute !!
There may not be a film that better captures the mood, culture, music, and feel of an American decade.
He tells you so much about his character in this scene just with his eyes. Really stellar work.
And his pizza eating !
I always thought this movie was just about people who liked dancing. When I finally saw it I wasn't really into the rape and self ending bits.
@@Roddy556so how did you feel watching “Barbie” ?
@@Roddy556 Yeah, the story is a lot darker than the "Disco is fun!! Check these crazy outfits!!" vibes which surround peoples' memories of it.
@callmesceptical9114 never saw Barbie either. Does it turn all dark and sinister too? If so I might steer clear of it.
I was 15 when I saw this at the Cinema in 78 and although it had an 18 rating, wearing a jacket and a tie did tend to get you in as long as you didn't look like a child.
I was very much into rock music but there is no doubting the toe tapping beat of a classic song, regardless of genre.
It really does give you the best start to a film that was quite dark in a number of places.
Coming out of the cinema, it was hard not to do the 'walk' yourself, even if you ended up looking like an idiot lol
Opening release of the movie: my high school friend and I sat through every single showing from morning to evening. I was transfixed, and still have to watch it if it appears on television. The dancing and music is flawless. ❤❤❤
The Bee Gees are legends and we will never see another group come close to their talent. I have adored them since I was a kid in the 70s. ❤❤❤
Easily pleased
still sounds good, because it was cleverly done to go with the beat of our hearts :D
Never say never. At least I hope mainstream music will become what it used to be in this golden era - clever, nice, exciting, sexy and funky. Today it's just pure garbage. All good music has gone on the internet, on Spotify, YT etc. Not on mainstream media.
@@DESSERT_X Clive Anderson got it right, they sang meaningless songs in high pitched voices

Not the NYC we have now…..
Why
He wasn’t in NYC
This wasn’t in New York. Also, NYC back then was called “Fear City.”
Last time I was there was 09 in Chelsea. What is it like now.
You can be lucky it's not the new york of the 70 or the 80s. The city almost went bankrupt and crime was rampant. T
Saturday Night Fever came to Greece at 1978, I was almost 12 years old at that summer. Me and my friends watched the movie from a balcony next to a summer Kino at our neighborhood.
Was an unforgettable experience to all of us, still is!
"summer Kino" Outdoor cinema? Drive-in cinema?
@@Foersom_ Just outdoor.
AWESOME!!!!! Movies now a days don't have a dust of magic like this movie right here!
Growing old is definitely scary and the fact my derelict mother took me to see this movie at age 5 is troubling, but it’s really awesome to know that I was able to sit in the theater and watch this movie real time when it came out. Very few things are remotely as iconic anymore.
5 years old? Yikes.
I've seen bits of the film since a teen but watched the whole thing about 3 years ago when I was 32... some prettty adult content in there lol. In fact the last 1/4 of the film was uhh... pretty heavy, even for an adult.
She gave you one of your fonder memories! She did alright with you. 😆
Derelict for sure
I’m sry
No way. Kids were not allowed to R rated. I was 11. Unless you went to the pg version they created after
The best thing that's happened to me in my life was being a teenager in the '70's.
I really wish I could've been a teenager in that glorious cultural decade...

Sad
Not so good now though
Mine also .But now i Love my Lord and Saviour The Lord Jesus Christ I know He died for every ones sins past present and future And All you have to do is put All your trust in him personally and in him alone to save you He died on the cross to save all humanity. I have so much peace Now that i have put all my trust in him and him alone to save me from Hell for ever. This will be the best news you will ever hear EVER.
When this movie came out, I would cut school and back then you paid one admission and could watch a movie all day so I cannot tell u how many times Ive seen this movie. 😄😄
I remember when this came out. It changed all of us. Changed the world.
Perfectly captures the Zeitgeist -- 1977 -- NYC -- America -- What a time it was to be alive.
You couldn't have said it better. That 1977 atmosphere was bangin.
it was fun. i was in high school when this came out and lived in Queens the same borough he lived in. good times.
Iconic movie that captured an amazing time period. Saturday Night Fever is a musical masterpiece!
Whenever I hear that title I can’t help but remember, Samurai Night Fever on Saturday Night Live.
Absolutely my friend, too bad they don't make that kind of movie/music anymore.
💯
It was a good time for that era...... I miss it.
@@kat35lulu88 I'd go back in a heartbeat.
I saw the trailer for the movie," Saturday Night Live", 50 years ago, while I was serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer on the north coast of Honduras. The crowd of enthusiastic young Hondurans went NUTS!!!🇺🇲🇺🇲🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🥳
Music in sync, steps in sync, what more can we ask for?
He is cool enough in every regard to carry a bucket of paint it still be cool
I remember dancing with my mom at five years old to this soundtrack on vinyl. She was 24.
SWEET ❤❤❤!!!!
Oh what lovely memory 🌷
I was the same age and you could not get away from the bee gees the whole world was dancing to the bee gees at the time
@ericmilesaz beautiful time capusule, greatings to your mom.
I was 4 years old when Dad took me to see this. Iconic scene.
That waiting for Saturday night feeling; totally relatable
Wasn't it! Good Times. Feeling so nostalgic now 😢
i remember well
I was a 10 year old kid when Saturday Night Fever exploded from the screen onto the streets of NYC!!! It was a time I was lucky to live in and will never forget 🙏🏽
The good old days 👍 10 All the way 💯
I love that intro! That music always makes me move!
I was in my first year of high school in Australia when this film was released. We had the best of music and life.
I was in grade in grade 2 and my older brother kept playing the SNF soundtrack.
I was a Teenager living in Chicago when this movie was released. It reminds me of the good old days when our lives were “normal” and not so screwed up with the crazy violence that we are experiencing today. When our cities felt like America, not the third world.
Hope you didn't vote democrat coz you get what you vote for
Well, in the seventies, New York wasnt the heaven. Good example of memory that was never like that
NYC in the 70s was a crime ridden hell hole. What lol
well it never looked like Paris... lol...your memory is distorted
If you want "crazy violence" then try growing up in New York in the late 70's...
*I'll never tire of this movie*
When this movie first came out, I saw it multiple times as a teenager. John Travolta still looks great, I recently saw him dance with his daughter, and he still has the moves.
John was born to play this role!!! Perfect segway from “Welcome Back” to showcase the character in Saturday that he’d already developed during those years, one that the audience could buy into instantly…..brilliant casting. I loved every second of the move and rushed to see it as a teen as soon as it was in theaters near me, like EVERYBODY else did. Nothing in my social world was the same after this film. We lived and breathed Disco and The Bee Gees were the hottest group out there. I played the soundtrack album so much, I swear I wore a hole in it!!!
Thanks for the memories 👍
Especially after Carrie and boy in the bubble🤣🤣🤣
I was 9 years old when this movie came out and didn't get into musicals until a couple years later with The Blues Brothers. But my older sister saw it and became obsessed with John Travolta. She bought the soundtrack albums to SNF and Grease and played them endlessly. To this day I could sign every song off each album based off hearing them through the wall between her bedroom and mine.
The 1970's were an amazing time. Wish I could go back and just freeze the time capsule. 🥰🕛
I'm 65 now....I see this and get so sad,we had the best music ever.....and didn't know it.....😢😢😢😢
What an amazing insight into the world almost 50 years ago.......what a state it has turned into now
This movie was my 1st introduction to Hollywood as a kid. Even though I experienced it 22 years after its release, I'll never forget the opening sequence. Stayin' Alive is my jam - still.
Innocence, swagger and those blue eyes…. ❤️
