MIDNIGHT COWBOY
February 16, 2015  | By David Bianculli

Encore, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
When this movie was released in 1969, it was so controversial, and its subject matter and language considered so adult, that it was one of the few major-studio films ever rated X. That was then, then is now. And now, it shows up, unedited, at the start of prime time on cable’s Encore network. Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman star, as hustlers who team up in hopes of surviving the tough streets of New York City.
