Un cuplu american bogat sunt ostatici într-o călătorie anevoioasă în junglă.
Jim Corbett (Glenn Ford) frees four prisoners to help him navigate the Honduran jungle. He's looking for a band of rebels he intends to help.
On board a tramp steamer sailing of the coast of South America is Corbett a mysterious man trying to get to Honduras. However with a revolution raging within its borders, the captain refuses to land there.
For a Glenn Ford junkie, which is easy for me to be with the films he made in the late Forties and early Fifties, Appointment in Honduras is a temptation hard to resist. Ford hadn't become a superstar yet.
