Simone e Laura (1955)
Simone e Laura sono una coppia di coniugi, entrambi attori, in pieno declino professionale e alle soglie del divorzio. La televisione li interpella per una serie di zuccherose commedie su una coppia felice e i due debbono fingere l'armonia pur continuando a civettare con altri. La trasmissione natalizia si trasforma così in una terribile scenata in diretta alla fine della quale, però, i due comprenderanno d'amarsi ancora.
