Synopsis: Urban Cowboy (1980)
Synopis: John Travolta and Debra Winger star in this cowboy version of SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER, in which all the action takes place at Gilley's country-western bar, a rough-and-tumble honky-tonk in the heart of Houston. Travolta plays Bud, a young country farmer who moves to the city to find work at an oil refinery and finds love with Sissy (Winger), a cowgirl of easy virtue and spirit. The two country-western singles fall in love on the dance floor of Gilley's and quickly marry only to discover that their workaday life is harder to cope with than they imagined, lightened only by hard-drinking weekends of glory at Gilley's, where they're both local heroes, line-dancin' and struttin' their stuff until dawn. In between crowd-pleasing rides on the club's mechanical bull, Bud and Sissy struggle to keep their new romance alive despite the competitive attentions of a new cowboy in town, a bull-riding ex-convict (Scott Glenn) who has his eye on Sissy. James Bridges's hard-driving drama glimmers with the intensity of the super saloon, capturing the wild and rough life of the modern cowboy. The soundtrack features musical performances from such greats as Bonnie Raitt, Mickey Gilley, Boz Scaggs, Kenny Rogers, and the Charlie Daniels Band.Features: Urban Cowboy (1980)

Cons: I don't know any.
I saw this movie back in 1980 when it first came out. It was great then and I still enjoy watching it today. I was and still am a huge Travolta fan. It is a funny kind of love story. I enjoyed the music and the dancing because I'm a country music fan. Watch this movie. You'll enjoy it.

Pros: Music, Bull Riding, Dancing, the kiss on the Dance floor. with perfect casting.
Cons: Can't think of any.
Travolta set out to prove that he can do it all in this flick from the bull riding to the dancing. The kiss on the dance floor is one the greatest of all time. I did not like country music until this film came out. It is great that it is finally on DVD.
