the second best-known bus movie

replica of the original bus (bus-and-coach-photos.com)
Strictly, at 55 minutes in length, this was a short film rather than a movie, however, it was shown in theatres in the US in the 1970s. The Magical Mystery Tour, made in September 1967 and screened on British TV in December 1967, featured the Beatles travelling around in a 1967 Plaxton Panorama I (Bedford VAL 14). The original bus is now outside a Hard Rock Café in the US, but replicas conduct tourists on Beatles theme tours around Liverpool.
