Un grain de folie (1954)
Pris par le temps, des espions doivent se débarrasser d'un microfilm qui devient gênant. Ils ont beau chercher un endroit fiable, ils n'en trouvent pas. En désespoir de cause, ils se résignent à cacher le précieux objet - d'importants plans d'avions classés top secret - dans un pantin. La marionnette, qui appartient à un ventriloque, garde le secret. Le marionnettiste - Jerry Morgan - également. Jerry, qui pour ses spectacles travaille avec «Clarence et Terrence», ses deux poupées, ignore absolument tout de ce qui l'attend. Et, sans rien comprendre, il se retrouve mêlé à cette sombre histoire d'espions et de documents dérobés...
