Never let it be said that Cage doesn't still have it in him to give a calm and quiet performance and still deliver. Wolff is shaping up to be impressive as well. It's hard to say much about this movie without giving a lot away because it's very rooted in emotion and relationships, so most big plot points won't seem like such unless you're already on the ride.

Midnight Cowboy 1969
Voight is so young in this. 75 minutes in I looked up the cast list to see who played Joe, and it was 83 minutes before I believed it was him. He and Hoffman both bring their A game whether I recognized him or not.
