Cowboy (1958)
Glenn Ford spielt den Viehbaron Tom Reece, der nach Monaten in der Prärie nach Chicago kommt. Als er sein ganzes Geld bei einem gewagten Pokerspiel verliert, muss er notgedrungen ein 3.800$-Darlehen bei Hotelportier Fred Harris aufnehmen - im Tausch gegen einen Anteil an seiner Viehzucht. Möchtegern-Cowboy Frank wiederum hat sich hoffnungslos in die junge Maria Vidal verliebt, die attraktive Tochter eines wohlhabenden mexikanischen Ranchers. Obwohl ihr Vater den beiden verboten hat, sich wieder zu sehen, erinnert Frank Tom an ihre gemeinsame Vereinbarung und zwingt den bärbeissigen Cowboy, ihn auf den Viehtrieb in Marias Heimatstadt Guadalupe mitzunehmen. Dort allerdings finden die beiden Männer mehr Abwechslung, als sie verkraften können.
