(Trivia)
Line 69:
* [[There Are Two Kinds of People in the World|There Are Two Kinds of Girls In The World]]: Tony's philosophy is that a girl can either be a [[My Girl Is Not a Slut|"nice girl"]] or a [[Country Matters|"c**t"]], but not both.
* [[Unbuilt Trope]]: The movie's portrayal of disco lifestyle is decidedly unsentimental and depressing enough to be labeled as a grim [[Deconstruction]] of dance flicks and night club culture in general. The twist is that this film was the '''[[Trope Maker]]''' of the 70's disco craze.
* [[Unintentional Period Piece]]
* [[Very Loosely Based on a True Story]]. "Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night", a 1975 ''New Yorker'' article. Ironically, it turns out that the article was completely fabricated.
* [[Walking in Rhythm]]: Tony, to "Stayin' Alive" at the beginning of the film. One of John Travolta's most famous movie scenes, subject to much [[Stock Parody]].
