Billy Budd (1962)
Nel 1797, il marinaio Billy Budd viene imbarcato sull'Indomita, dove tutti gli sono amici fuorchè un componente dell'equipaggio, Claggart che ce l'ha a morte con lui e lo denuncia al capitano come elemento sovversivo. Billy uccide Claggart e la Corte marziale lo condanna all'impiccagione, malgrado l'equipaggio sia interamente dalla sua parte. Poi, nel momento del pericolo, l'onore del Paese viene anteposto alle passioni.
