Convoy Unknown

Sam Peckinpah's classic road movie CONVOY (1978) based on a song by C.W. McCall's hit song of the same name stars Kris Kristofferson and Ali McGraw. A mighty convoy of dust-raising trucks heads for a state line in south-western America. The massive collection of vehicles all shapes and sizes are led by ˜Rubber Duck' (Kris Kristofferson), a legendary trucker who has gathered this vast army together in protest police corruption, federal and states laws and shady politicking. The law is bearing down on truckers and forcing them to obey unrealistic speed limitations which... rob them of precious time and money. The national guard, the Army, the Police and the feds are all out to halt the truckers, but the truckers don't want to stop!Extras:NEW Interview with Franklyn AjayeNEW Audio Commentary by filmmaker/Peckinpah scholar Mike SiegelNEW Video Essay: The Lost ConvoyNEW The Duck TrucksNEW Promoting Convoy : animated gallery of international posters and lobby cardsNEW Convoy colour stills: 120 rare colour photosNEW Filming Convoy pt 1: White Sands & the Truck stop: 100 rare bts photosNEW Filming Convoy pt 2: The Trucks are rolling: 100 rare bts photosNEW Filming Convoy pt 3: Showdown in Alvarez: 100 rare bts photosOriginal US trailerAudio commentary by film historians Paul Seydor, Garner Simmons, and Nick RedmanPassion & Poetry Sam's Trucker MovieU.S. TV SpotU.S. Radio Spots x 4Three Lost ScenesInjokes, Friends & CameosTrucker Notes from NorwayTrailer [show more]
