Aaron Latham's journal he kept during the production was so fricking awesome to read. It was available on his blog back in 03-05. But it's been scrubbed from the internet for a decade now because it details how Travolta would seduce male prod assistants with cocaine and promises.

Dude read the article I linked. I could kick myself for not saving the Text Files I saved of the Journal/Blog. It was laid out in several 'pages' of LONG scrolling text. I didn't want to look like I was playing on the internet all day at work so I went to Latham's blog and copy and pasted all the text to text files.

I can't find this shite online ANYWHERE now. He wrote in the journal EVERY day of production.

quote:
Among Latham’s papers are extensive materials relating to “Urban Cowboy,” including drafts, notes and research materials for his Esquire article, the film and the Broadway musical. Included is Latham’s extensive and detailed journal documenting the movie from the writing of the screenplay to actors’ screen tests to filming. The journal fills five notebooks and hundreds of pages, providing a nearly daily account of the creation of the film from Nov. 27, 1978, to Nov. 25, 1979.
