“Would ya just watch the hair? Ya know, I work on my hair a long time and you hit it. He hits my hair.”
Saturday Night Fever stars John Travolta as Tony Manero, a young Italian-American man who spends his weekends dancing and drinking at a local discothèque while dealing with social tensions and disillusionment in his working-class ethnic neighborhood in Brooklyn. Travolta was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance.
A major critical and commercial success, Saturday Night Fever had a tremendous impact on the popular culture of the late 1970s. The soundtrack, featuring songs by the Bee Gees, is one of the best-selling soundtrack albums worldwide. —Wikipedia

Did you know? The quote at the top of this page was not part of the film’s original script. It was improvised by Travolta, and it remains one of the most memorable moments of the film. In 2010, the Library of Congress acknowledged the cultural significance of Saturday Night Fever by including it in the National Film Registry.
