Urban Cowboy Urban Cowboy is a 1980 American romantic drama film about the love-hate relationship between Buford Uan "Bud" Davis (John Travolta) and Sissy (Debra Winger). The movie captured the late 1970s/early 1980s popularity of country music. It was John Travolta's third major acting role after "Saturday Night Fever" and " Grease". Much of the action centers around activities at Gilley's Club, a honky tonk in Pasadena, Texas.
Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell Theatre The Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell Theatre is a striptease club at 895 O'Farrell Street near San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood. Opened as an X-rated movie theater by Jim and Artie Mitchell on July 4, 1969, the O'Farrell remains one of America's oldest and most notorious adult-entertainment establishments; by 1980, the nightspot had popularized close-contact lap dancing, which would become the norm in striptease clubs nationwide. Journalist Hunter S. Thompson, a longtime friend of the Mitchells and frequent visitor at the club, claimed to be its night manager in 1985 as part of his research for a book on pornography. He called the O'Farrell "the Carnegie Hall of public sex in America" and "Playboy" magazine praised it as "the place to go in San Francisco!"
