I saw it in the summer of 69. I was 15 and no license yet so I had to rely on other's for car rides if I wanted to go to a drive-in. I had a good friend from my church that was a year older than me but strict Pentecostal churches back then frowned on movie going.It was a good movie with Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight in the early 70's. If you get a chance, check it out.
We were on a cruise last year, and one of the plays on ship was Kinky Boots. The couple next to us were very friendly. First thing they asked me is if I listened to Christian radio. They were excited to see the play. Almost as soon as the lights went down, there was a scene about a transgender black man. They left immediately. I kept thinking, surely the title of the play gave them an indication they might not like the content?I saw it in the summer of 69.

Fortunately his parents allowed him to see good Christian movies which translated to Disney flicks and cowboy movies. And that's how two naive, sheltered teens got to see Midnight Cowboy. Actually, we only got to see about 20 minutes of it having discovered that Midnight Cowboy wasn't a Western. But great movie or not, we were not the only vehicle pulling out of the drive-in early.
