from Hollywood: The Oral History (2022)
Director John Schlesinger :
Some executive reading scripts
suggested Elvis Presley would
be good for Midnight Cowboy
if it was turned into a musical.
And someone at United Artists,
for whom I did the picture,
seriously said, "Make Ratzo
Sammy Davis, Jr. and you have
a hit." (page 532 top)
