Plunder of the Sun
ActionAdventureDramaMysteryThriller81 min
Stranded in Havana, an American insurance adjuster gets pulled into a hunt for buried treasure after crossing paths with an archaeologist and an antiquities collector. Glenn Ford is the outsider at the center, moving from port-city intrigue toward the Mexican ruins of Zapoteca, where the promise of ancient riches draws in competing interests. Patricia Medina and Diana Lynn are part of the circle around the search, as the story shifts between romantic entanglements, suspect partnerships, and the shadowy business of artifacts and theft. The setup blends hardboiled suspicion with a treasure-chase plot rooted in ancient ruins and shifting loyalties.
