Der Regenmacher (1956)
Eine Dürreperiode beunruhigt die Bauern im Mittelwesten Amerikas. Der Scharlatan Billy Starbuck verspricht dem Farmer Curry, für ganze 100 Dollar Regen herbeizuzaubern. Currys Tochter Lizzie, ein alterndes Mädchen, das die Familie endlich an den Mann zu bringen hofft, ist mißtrauisch. Aber bald beginnt sie, den charmanten Vagabunden mit anderen Augen zu sehen.
