When Edward Creighton leads the construction of the Western Union to unite East with West, he hires a Western reformed outlaw and a tenderfoot Eastern surveyor. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation in 2000.
Forget the usual dusty shootouts for a sweeping look at the industrial grit required to string telegraph wires across a wild frontier. This historical epic trades lawless gunfights for the relentless, calculated struggle of building a communication empire.
