bulls in one of his most electrifying film roles. Travolta and
Winger make an unforgettable screen couple in this compelling,
Texas-sized look at a country-western way of life. Features a
hit soundtrack and musical appearances by Mickey Gilley, Johnny
Lee, Bonnie Raitt and The Charlie Daniels Band.
Bud
Davis is a country boy who moves to the city to visit his uncle.
He starts hanging out at Gilley's, owned by Mickey Gilley
himself. He takes a job at the refinery where his uncle works.
He also meets Sissy, a cowgirl, and they fall in love and
suddenly get married. And then their marriage is shattered when
Bud sees Sissy allegedly seeing con man Wes, who teaches her how
to ride the mechanical bull...and plans to rob Gilley's. When a
bull-riding contest is announced, Bud decides to sign up. Can he
win the contest and save his marriage to Sissy?!!
