Saturday Night Fever

John Travolta made the all-white suit and black fly collar an iconic ensemble in this hit movie. Travolta plays Tony Manero, a knuckleheaded young guy who frequents a local Brooklyn discotec on the weekends. Tony is the disco king on the dancefloor, where he drowns out the harsh realities of his life. That includes a dead-end job, clashes with his unsupportive and squabbling parents, racial tensions in the local community, and his associations with a gang of macho friends.

White Nights

In this movie, the great Gregory Hines works together with ballet master Mikhail Baryshnikov, an expatriate Russian dancer who is on a plane forced to land on Soviet territory. He is taken to an apartment in which a black American who has married a Russian woman lives with her and he is to become a dancer for the Bolshoi again. It all boils down to whether or not he can trust the American (Hines).
