Handlung
Randolph Scott und Robert Young brillieren in dem Western-Highlight von Fritz Lang! Mr. Creighton bietet dem gesetzlosen Banditen Vance Shaw einen legalen Job an, da dieser ihm das Leben gerettet hat: Vance soll als Scout den Western Union Bautrupp unter Richard Blakes Leitung von Omaha nach Salt Lake City begleiten. Der Plan ist, dass diese Telegraphenleitung 1861 erstmals den Osten mit dem Westen Amerikas verbindet. Doch die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Vance und Richard erweist sich von Anfang an als schwierig...
