Probably skip. I saw it decades ago and am not looking to watch it again for any reason.Is that another cultural icon I have to watch so people don't razz me for being such a boomer? I mean. Usually it's not a bad reason to watch a movie. I watched Tropical Thunder and The Big Lebowski for that reason. They were good movies and after watching I understood the cultural references for never go full retard, and that's like your opinion, man.
But I've never seen Midnight Cowboy either. Culturally important? Or skip?
