Mexico, 1866. The revolution is in full swing and mercenaries Ben Trane (Gary Cooper) and Joe Erin (Burt Lancaster) are trying to sell their services to whichever side will have them. After considering a number of offers, they settle on a lucrative deal with the sultry Countess DuVarre (Denise Darcel), who wants help transport some of the Emperor's gold to his hideout in Vera Cruz. Someway along the road, the Countess comes up with an even more tempting offer - what if they were to steal the gold and divide it up amongst themselves?
