Trapezio (1956)
Mike, che lavora per il circo di Parigi, è stato uno dei più grandi trapezisti, uno dei pochi che fosse in grado di eseguire il triplo salto mortale. Ma un incidente lo ha reso zoppo e avvilito nel morale. Tino, il figlio di un altro celebre uomo volante, lo supplica di insegnargli il segreto del numero che lo ha reso famoso nel mondo. Alla fine Mike cede alle insistenze del ragazzo e accetta di esibirsi insieme a lui. Del circo fa parte anche Lola, ragazza priva di talento, che vorrebbe esibirsi con Tino e Mike.
