Convoy is a classic American action film from 1978 that is directed by Sam Peckinpah and stars Kris Kristofferson, Ali MacGraw, and Ernest Borgnine. The film tells the story of a group of truck drivers who form a convoy across the country in protest against corrupt law enforcement. The film begins with "Rubber Duck" (Kris Kristofferson), a truck driver who finds himself in trouble with the law after he refuses to stop for a corrupt cop who tries to extort him. Duck's actions quickly gain the attention of other truck drivers who begin to join him in his protest against law enforcement. As the group grows, they decide to form a convoy and drive across the country together.

Throughout their journey, the truckers must navigate a series of obstacles including hostile law enforcement, dangerous road conditions, and their own colorful personalities. The leader of the corrupt cops is Sheriff Lyle "Cottonmouth" Wallace (Ernest Borgnine), a ruthless lawman who will stop at nothing to bring down the convoy. As the truckers drive across the country, they become a symbol of hope for the American people who are tired of corrupt officials and oppressive regulations.

Along the way, Rubber Duck meets a beautiful woman named Melissa (Ali MacGraw) who becomes his love interest. Melissa is a photographer who helps document the convoy's journey and begins to sympathize with their cause. Despite the danger and chaos surrounding them, Rubber Duck and Melissa begin to fall in love.

The film culminates in a dramatic standoff between the truckers and law enforcement. As the convoy reaches its destination, Sheriff Wallace and his deputies surround them, leading to a tense confrontation. Despite overwhelming odds, the truckers stand up for their rights and refuse to back down, leading to a thrilling conclusion.
