Un cappello pieno di pioggia (1957)
Mentre sta combattendo per l'esercito americano nella guerra in Corea, Johnny Pope viene ferito ed è costretto a una lunga degenza in ospedale. I medici, per attenuargli il dolore, gli somministrano la morfina e il giovane ne diviene dipendente. Tornato a casa, Johnny non riesce a liberarsi dal vizio e sperpera tutto il suo denaro nella droga che trova sempre con maggior difficoltà. A conoscenza del suo vizio sono soltanto la moglie Celia, sempre più preoccupata, e il fratello Polo che, a poco a poco, gli presta tutti i suoi risparmi. Quando Johnny decide di procurarsi i soldi con un delitto che però non ha il coraggio di compiere, Polo vende la sua automobile per impedirgli di mettersi nei guai. La situazione si aggrava perchè anche il vecchio padre si scaglia contro Johnny che ha una grave crisi...
