Resumen

Bud - short for his full name of Buford Uan Davis - has just moved from his parents' home in rural Spur, Texas to the Houston home of his Uncle Bob and Aunt Corene in order to earn more money than he could in Spur. Introduced by Bob and Corene, Bud ends up spending much of his after hours at Gilley's, a honky-tonk bar and club. As the new guy in town, he could have his pick of most any woman at the bar, but he ends up mutually falling for Sissy, a feisty working class gal, the two who end up quickly getting married and moving into a trailer Bud bought as a surprise wedding present. As both Bud and Sissy are stubborn, headstrong, emotional, passionate and prideful, the honeymoon phase of their marriage is soon over as issues, including of jealousy, violent behavior and roles within their relationship, arise. In their arguments, both Bud and Sissy feel the need to hurt the other emotionally, the best way they knowing how being to make the other jealous in each knowing deep in his/her own heart how much each loves the other. They, however, may end up crossing lines in their marriage, pass which it may be difficult to turn back. Factored into that crossing lines are the agendas of the two people to who they turn. For Bud, it's Pam, an uptown girl with downtown sensibilities who has a penchant for cowboys. For Sissy, it's Wes, an ex-con bank robber on parole who gets a job at Gilley's and who lives in a trailer behind the bar. The symbol of many of Bud and Sissy's problems is the newly installed mechanical bull featured at Gilley's.—Huggo
