Jenseits von Eden (1955)
Im kalifornischen Ort Salinas betreibt Gemüsebauer Adam Trask im Jahr 1917 seine eigene Farm. Unterstützt wird der alleinerziehende Vater von seinen beiden Söhnen Aron und Caleb, die sich schon immer als Rivalen gesehen haben, wenn es um die Gunst ihres Vaters geht. Ihre Mutter Kate sei schon lange tot, in diesem Glauben ließ Adam seine Söhne zumindest. Doch Cal weiß schon lange, dass Kate die Familie freiwillig verließ und ein Bordell in Monterey leitet. Nur Aron ahnt von dieser Tatsache nichts. Als Adam bei einem Versuch, tiefgefrorenen Salat an die Ostküste zu transportieren, sein gesamtes Vermögen verliert, fasst Cal den Plan, ihm das Geld wieder zu beschaffen. Er nutzt den Eintritt der USA in den Ersten Weltkrieg, um schnell Gewinn zu erzielen. Noch begreift Cal nicht, dass eine Liebe zwischen Vater und Sohn nicht auf Geld basiert.
