En 1780 à Frankfort, en Prusse, le jeune Nathan Rothschild prévient ses parents, Amschel et Guttle, que le fisc viendra. Ils se dépêchent et cachent leurs richesses, y compris la monnaie, l'argent, etc. Le fisc exige 20.000 gulden , une somme exorbitante, mais accepte un pot-de-vin de 5000 en échange de l'évaluation de 2000 en taxes. La satisfaction de Nathan est de courte durée, cependant; un courrier lui apportant 10.000 gulden est intercepté et l'argent confisqué par les impôts. Nathan dit à ses fils qu'il essaie d'être aussi honnête que possible, mais les autorités antisémites ne le laisseront pas faire ; il exhorte ses enfants à acquérir de l'argent, car «l'argent c'est le pouvoir» et une défense pour leur peuple.

John Wayne stars as U.S. Navy Captain Rockwell "Rock" Torrey, a divorced "second generation Navy" son of a career Chief Petty Officer. A Naval Academy graduate and career officer, Torrey is removed from command of his heavy cruiser for "throwing away the book" when pursuing the enemy and then being torpedoed by a Japanese submarine shortly after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Kirk Douglas portrays Torrey's executive officer, Commander (later Captain) Paul Eddington, a wayward sort of career officer who has resigned as a naval aviator and returned to the surface navy because of an unhappy marriage. His wife's numerous affairs and drunken escapades have become the talk of Honolulu and her death during the Pearl Harbor attack—in the company of an Army Air Corps Officer (Hugh O'Brian), with whom she had just had a wild fling on a local beach—drives Eddington into a bar brawl with a group of other Army Air Corps officers, a subsequent stint in the Pearl Harbor brig, and exile as the "... officer in charge of piers and warehouses ..." in what he calls a "backwater island purgatory.
