Plot
One Con...Eight Kids...One Outrageous Journey

Richard Pryor stars in this wild, wacky and warmhearted road movie with a difference, which later inspired a TV series.

When budget cuts close a children’s home in Philadelphia, Vivian Perry (Emmy Award winner Cicely Tyson) decides to help eight special-education students by taking them to her aunt's farm outside Seattle. In a desperate need of a driver/mechanic for the bus, she teams up with Joe Braxton (Pryor), an equally desperate ex-con who hates women and children.

Fueled by Roberta Flack's songs, the action is fast and funny as this delightfully mismatched group battles the bus, the law, the Klu Klux Klan and even each other on their way west. But it all ends happily for the kids, the con and the straight-laced lady.
