Für eine Handvoll Geld (1952)
Der skrupellose Jim Fallon macht seine Geschäfte mit Holz und sieht nach der Verabschiedung eines neuen Gesetzes im Jahr 1900 die Möglichkeit, Kapital aus den Küstenmammutbäumen in Nordkalifornien zu schlagen. Dadurch gerät er in einen Konflikt mit einer lokalen Quäkergemeinde, die die riesigen Bäume als heilige Schöpfung Gottes betrachten. Besondere Überzeugungskraft besitzt der Charme der Witwe Chadwick, in die sich Fallon verliebt. Als er seine Pläne aufgeben will, zeigt sich sein zwielichtiger Partner Frenchy nur mäßig begeistert...
