Saturday Night Fever
Notas del episodio
"Al Pacino! Attica! Attica! Attica!" It's time to put on your dancing shoes because Wayne Kramer and Barry Germansky are heading to the 2001 Odyssey disco to get down with controversial youth classic, Saturday Night Fever, 1977's breakout hit and star-making vehicle for John Travolta. While the Bee Gees' soundtrack to SNF remains evergreen, the tone and raunchiness of the film hasn't fared as well. Today's fragile viewers have condemned this gritty cinematic achievement as racist, misogynistic, and profane, even if they still like to watch Travolta boogie. Wayne and Barry contend that John Badham's disco era drama is an angsty 70s masterpiece that delivers on all fronts, even as it proves to be an equal opportunity offender. Tune in to revisit the "Fever" and leave your sensitivities at the door. And be sure to "watch the hair."
