Il passo dell'avvoltoio (1951)
Il passo dell'avvoltoio (Raton Pass) è un curioso western basato sulle regole della Community Property. Dennis Morgan e Patricia Neal interpretano due coniugi sposati da poco, ognuno dei quali possiede la metà di un enorme ranch di bestiame. Neal è un po' più ambiziosa del marito e, con l'aiuto di un piccolo trucco legale, cerca di ottenere la metà di Morgan. Lui si rifiuta, così lei ingaggia alcuni pistoleri per fare pressione. In un western del 1951, l'avido di solito fa una brutta fine; Raton Pass si attiene rigorosamente alla tradizione.
