Urban Cowboy (1980)

Bud (John Travolta) is a young man from the country who moves to Houston to work at the local oil refinery and starts to spend a lot of time at the local country and western bar named Gilley's where he meets Sissy (Debra Winger).  Over much dancing and drinks, they start to fall in love and eventually get married.  Since they are young and impetuous, they start to have problems....and things just get more complicated from there, but can their love prevail?  Along the way, there's plenty of great music and dancing as director James Bridges (The China Syndrome) takes us into this unique subculture of two-step dancing and mechanical bull-riding!
