Rio Grande (1950)
Kirby Yorke ist Kavallerieoffizier in einem texanischen Fort. Seine Aufgabe ist es, den Südwesten für Ansiedler zu sichern und die Überfälle der Apachen einzudämmen. Aber die Regierung der Vereinigten Staaten hat mit Mexiko ein Abkommen getroffen, wonach die Streitkräfte der Union den Grenzfluß Rio Grande nicht passieren dürfen. Dies bedeutet, dass die Indianer jederzeit in Mexiko Unterschlupf finden. Für Yorke gibt es nur eine Möglichkeit, die Indianer zu überwältigen: Er muß den Rio Grande überschreiten. In dieser schwierigen Situation tauchen auch noch Kirbys Frau und sein Sohn Jeff, die er seit 15 Jahren nicht gesehen hat, im Fort auf...
