Pranzo alle otto (1933)
Un pranzo mondano fa da sfondo a una serie di comportamenti e di rapporti che si intrecciano durante la serata. La moglie di un armatore in crisi invita due nobili inglesi che disdegnano la serata e questo fatto crea malumore nella padrone di casa: al loro posto, interverranno come rimpiazzo, due parenti poveri. Gli altri invitati sono un'anziana attrice molto ricca e vecchia fiamma del marito, un attore sulla via del tramonto anche perché alcolizzato, un capitano d'industria con la moglie, il medico di famiglia e consorte.
