Musical drama starring John Travolta
Tony Manero works all week in a dull job at a paint store but on Saturday nights he becomes the glittering disco king at his local nightclub, Odyssey 2001, much to the disapproval of his religious family. But when he meets Stephanie, a girl with her sights firmly set on the uptown life, they decide to become dance partners for a contest at the disco and Tony realises how meaningless his life really is.
Director John Badham (1977, 18)
