Un brin d'escroquerie (1960)
Max Easton, ancien sous-marinier, est de retour à terre. Le commandeur végète désormais à l'Amirauté. Sir Charles Holland doit, lui, être nommé ambassadeur à Bruxelles. Sa superbe fiancée, Virginia Killain, le rejoint. Max ne résiste pas aux charmes de la belle Américaine, dont il s'éprend presque aussitôt. Las, sa fortune se réduit à quelques pièces de monnaie, contrairement à celle de son rival. De plus, il n'a aucune situation. Max ne se le tient pas pour dit et se met en quête d'un moyen d'éveiller l'attention de Virginia. Un plan infaillible émerge bientôt de son imagination débordante...
