In 1931, China is embroiled in a civil war. Friends of British Captain Donald "Doc" Harvey (Clive Brook) envy him because the fabulously notorious Shanghai Lily (Marlene Dietrich) is a fellow passenger on the express train from Beiping to Shanghai. Since the name means nothing to him, they inform him that she is a "coaster" or "woman who lives by her wits along the China coast" – in other words, a courtesan. On the journey, Harvey encounters Lily, who turns out to be his former lover, Magdalen. Five years earlier, she had played a trick on Harvey to gauge his love for her, but it backfired and he left her. She frankly informs him that, in the interim, "It took more than one man to change my name to Shanghai Lily." When Lily makes it clear that she still cares deeply for him, it becomes apparent that his feelings also have not changed, and he shows her the watch she gave him with her photograph still in it.

Antoine est couchettiste sur le Paris-Venise. Payé au smic, il est chargé de collecter les billets et les passeports des voyageurs de son wagon-couchettes de seconde classe. Comme il n’a pas vraiment la vocation, il expédie rapidement les affaires courantes pour s’enfermer dans sa cabine et rêver d’aventures en lisant Jack London. Mais cette fois-ci, un voyageur étrange a jeté son dévolu sur lui et ne le lâche plus. Jean-Bernard Bonassieu fuit la France pour échapper à de graves ennuis. Mais ce qui l’attend n’est guère plus engageant. Pour s’arracher aux griffes de Brandeburg, un puissant trafiquant d’organes humains, il oblige Antoine à le cacher et à ruser avec les contrôleurs et les douaniers de tous poils qui ne cessent de monter et de descendre de ce train international. Cette première irrégularité en entraîne d’autres et des rapports biscornus et chaotiques s’établissent entre Antoine et Jean-Bernard. En fait le fuyard est malade, une maladie inconnue qui intéresse les savants et surtout les laboratoires du monde entier, à la recherche de brevets pour créer des vaccins nouveaux. Bonassieu représente donc un trésor vivant que chacun cherche à s’approprier. Chaque arrêt du train est l’occasion de surprises et de dangers insoupçonnés. Lorsqu’au petit matin ils arrivent à Venise, Brandeburg est sur le quai, bien résolu mettre la main sur le malade. Aidé par son copain Richard, couchettiste du wagon voisin, Antoine parvient à faire sortir Bonassieu du train à l’insu du trafiquant et de sa bande. Mais Venise n’est pas sûre et à Paris, des menaces planent sur la femme et les enfants de Bonassieu. Il doit donc renoncer à sa fuite et rentrer au plus vite. Après une journée enfermé dans un local sans fenêtre, il faut repartir. Le voyage de retour sera encore plus mouvementé parce que des rivaux de Brandeburg se mettent de la partie... ... et si le film est drôle, les personnages, eux, ne rigolent pas.

The film portrays two conflicts that take place around Flagstone, a fictional town in the American Old West: a land battle related to construction of a railroad, and a mission of vengeance against a cold-blooded killer. A struggle exists for Sweetwater, a piece of land near Flagstone containing the region's only water source. The land was bought by Brett McBain (Frank Wolff), who foresaw that the railroad would have to pass through that area to provide water for the steam locomotives. When crippled railroad tycoon Morton (Gabriele Ferzetti) learns of this, he sends his hired gun Frank (Henry Fonda) to intimidate McBain to move off the land, but Frank instead kills McBain and his three children, planting evidence to frame the bandit Cheyenne (Jason Robards). It appears the land has no owner; however, a former prostitute (Claudia Cardinale) arrives from New Orleans, revealing she is Jill McBain, Brett's new wife and the owner of the land.
