HOLLYWOOD, Calif. – The film that both captured and defined a generation celebrates its 40th anniversary with the Director’s Cut of SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER arriving on Blu-ray and Digital HD for the first time ever on May 2, 2017 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. With John Travolta’s electrifying Oscar®-nominated performance, the Bee Gees’ explosive soundtrack and, of course, the unforgettable dancing, SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER captured the angst and brio of the time and had an indelible impact on popular culture. 40 years later, the film about a Brooklyn kid with no prospects who lives for Saturday night continues to be revered and celebrated.
SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER features an unforgettable soundtrack, composed and performed primarily by the Bee Gees, featuring mega-hits including “Stayin’ Alive,”
“Night Fever,” “How Deep Is Your Love,” “More Than A Woman” and “If I Can’t Have You.” The album has sold more than 40 million copies and was ranked number 132 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time in 2012.
