Bus Stop.

A naive, rambunctious, overly enthusiastic and socially inept cowboy, Beauregard Decker, and his friend and father-figure Virgil Blessing take the bus from Timber Hill, Montana to Phoenix, Arizona, to participate in a rodeo. In Phoenix, at the Blue Dragon Cafe, he imagines himself in love with the café's singer, Chérie, a talentless but ambitious performer from the Ozarks. He forces her outside, despite the establishment's rules against it, kisses her and thinks that means they're engaged. He intends to marry her at the rodeo, but she runs away.
