Broken Bow (2009)

In 1868, two railroads raced to lay track across The Great Plains of America. Their vision was to tame a land and unite a war-torn country with its first transcontinental railroad. While an entire nation looked west towards prosperity, one man rode north in search of his future and wound up facing his past. A "Hell on Wheels" railroad town has recently been constructed across a river from Broken Bow and for a young, Irish-American woman named Milly the railroad promises both opportunity and devastation. Her life changes drastically and both tragedy and destiny cement in her path the day a stranger rides into town. Through her trials and tribulations, the young-spirited girl forms an unlikely friendship with the mysterious stranger. Not all are as welcoming. Whispers of his dark and sinister past surface and spread. While Milly's future unfolds, the stranger's past unravels, culminating in a final showdown of loyalty and revenge.
