Mexican revolutionary Gilbert Roland and his gang steal gold from a government train. American mercenary Rory Calhoun and school teacher Shelley Winters join them for the cross-country trek to deliver the gold to Pancho Villa. Calhoun and Winters try to fall in love but mostly bicker over his changing allegiance to the revolution. Eventually greed gets the best of just about everyone and the gold never gets to Villa. Short on action, long on talk, the film never generates any momentum, wasting the location shooting in Mexico and a cast that should have known better.
