Greed (Les rapaces)
Description
McTeague takes to drink as he and Trina sink into poverty and violent arguments break out between them. Finally McTeague leaves his miserly wife, who is now working as a charwoman during the day while gloating over her gold coins at night. But he later returns, intoxicated, to her squalid room and murders her, escaping with her money. He flees across the desert, pursued by a posse which includes Marcus, who still lusts after the gold. The two finally meet up on the cracked, overheated salt flats and fight to the death. But as McTeague gives Marcus the fatal blow, Marcus snaps his handcuffs around McTeague's wrist.
