Re per una notte (1982)
Rupert Pupkin, aspirante divo, passa la sua vita a preparare spettacoli che sogna di poter interpretare, prima o poi, alla televisione. Un giorno riesce a salire sulla macchina del suo idolo, Jerry Langford, chiedendogli di poter partecipare al suo show. Langford, per liberarsene, lo invita a telefonargli in ufficio. Da questo momento, per Rupert, è tutto fatto, e comincia così il suo assedio a Langford...
