Texas (1941)
Alla fine della guerra civile americana dilaga la carestia in molte regioni degli Stati Uniti. Solo in Texas l'abbondanza di bestiame dà una speranza alla popolazione ma ovunque regnano disordine e violenza. Dan e Tod, due giovani originari della Virginia, mentre vanno in Texas alla ricerca di fortuna, sono involontari testimoni dell'assalto ad una diligenza. Disperati, decidono di derubare a loro volta i rapinatori e scappare con il bottino. Per sfuggire alla banda, decidono di dividersi e non si vedono più per lungo tempo. Quando si rincontrano sono cambiati: uno si è trovato dalla parte degli allevatori, l'altro si è unito ai banditi. La legge li oppone l'uno all'altro e dovranno incontrarsi di nuovo per la resa dei conti.
