Starred by Dustin Hoffman and John Voight, Midnight Cowboy won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1969, becoming the first X-rated film to ever receive that award. Curiously, one of the film’s most famous scenes was the result of a blooper.

At one point, Voight and Hoffman are nearly run over by a car when crossing a road, so Hoffman screams out “Hey! I’m walkin’ here!”. Actually, the crew didn’t have a permit to close down the streets, so the car was actually a real taxi who really almost ran over them! The director couldn’t stop laughing, and decided to leave the scene as it was!
