Asphalt-Cowboy (1969)
Der selbstbewusste Texaner Joe Buck hat das Landleben satt und reist nach New York, um als Callboy die Damen zu beglücken. Doch mit seiner naiven Cowboy-Aufmachung wird er in der kaltherzigen Stadt nur belächelt und abgezockt. Auf diesem Wege lernt er den verkrüppelten und todkranken Kleinganoven Rizzo kennen. Joe erkennt, dass dies sein einziger Freund in der fremden Welt ist. Die zwei raufen sich zusammen und kämpfen um das tägliche Überleben. Während Joe nur bei den Kerlen landet, träumt Rizzo vom sonnigen Strand in Miami. Und beide wissen, dass der Ausweg aus der Misere nur in der Flucht vor dem tristen Alltag liegen kann.
