En route vers le sud (1978)
Henry Moon, un minable voleur de chevaux, est arrêté par un shérif en territoire mexicain. Jeté en prison, il est condamné à mort. Son salut serait qu'une femme accepte de l'épouser. Alors qu'il est sur la potence, la belle Julia Tate se porte à son secours. Voilà notre homme échappant à une mort certaine mais se retrouvant avec la corde au cou. D'autres ennuis, d'ordres domestiques cette fois, l'attendent, car Julia mène Henry à la baguette et l'envoie travailler au fond de la mine d'or qu'elle possède. Pourtant, au fil des jours, Henry commence à s'attacher à cette femme de caractère...
