Canadian Pacific (1949)
WesternAbenteuerHistorieLiebesfilm
Endlich kann Tom Andrews seinen Job an den Nagel hängen. Er hat auftragsgemäß eine Route für den Bau der Canadian Pacific Eisenbahnverbindung ausgekundschaftet und will jetzt nur noch heim und seine Verlobte Cecille Gautier heiraten. Doch diese hat schlechte Nachrichten für ihn. Der Pelzhändler Dirk Rourke versucht alles, um den Bau der Eisenbahn zu verhindern. Er fürchtet erhebliche Einbußen für seine Geschäfte mit den Indianern und ist deshalb bereit, das gesamte Vorhaben zu sabotieren. Zudem hat er ebenfalls ein Auge auf Cecille geworfen. Wie ernst es Rourke ist, muss Tom bald am eigenen Leib erfahren, als der eine Explosion im Eisenbahncamp herbeiführt, die ihn fast das Leben kostet. Nur durch den Einsatz der mutigen Ärztin Edith Cabot, die ihn mit einer Bluttransfusion rettet, kann er überleben. Inzwischen reitet Cecille wie der Teufel zu ihm. Es geht um Leben und Tod: Sie hat herausgefunden, von wem der Schurke Rourke die ganze Zeit unterstützt wurde: Es ist ihr Vater!
