Summary

A naive Texan named Joe Buck arrives in New York City with dreams of making it as a hustler for wealthy women, but quickly finds himself broke and adrift. He forms an unlikely friendship with Ratso Rizzo, a sickly, small-time con man, and the two struggle to survive together on the margins of the city.

Released in 1969, Midnight Cowboy is a drama film.

373 IMDb reviewers are calibrated for this title, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 384 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 2,157 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 1,928 1960s films, not against the whole corpus.
