Convoy

The great Sam Peckinpah ("Bring Me The Head of Alfredo Garcia") directed this action classic. Martin Penwald (Kris Kristofferson, "Heaven's Gate") in pursuance of a feud with Sheriff Lyle Wallace (Ernest Borgnine, "Marty"), unites scores of his fellow-drivers via Citizen Band radio into a gigantic mile-long convoy which, powered by pent-up frustrations and resentments as much as by diesel-fuel, rolls irresistibly along the Arizona highways towards the freedom of the Mexican border.
