Le Cheval de fer (1925)
Le film retrace la construction du chemin de fer transcontinental et la vengeance de Davy Brandon dont le père a été tué par les Indiens : Davy Brandon, enfant, est amoureux de la jolie petite fille Miriam Marsh, sous l'œil attendri du jeune Abraham Lincoln. Le père de Brandon, visionnaire du chemin de fer, cherche – et trouve – un passage pratique qui permettrait beaucoup d'économies pour le chemin de fer naissant. Mais il est surpris par les Indiens et massacré par l'un deux. Davy, qui était caché, a vu que l'Indien qui a tué son père ne possède que deux doigts à la main droite…
