Frenesia del piacere (1964)
Jo e il suo terzo marito Jake vivono a Londra in una famiglia estesa con sei degli otto figli di lei ma il matrimonio attraversa un periodo di difficoltà. Lei è convinta che lui la tradisca e lo accusa di continuo. In compenso il suo psichiatra crede che lei usi la maternità come una sorta di giustificazione per mascherare le sue pulsioni sessuali (e da questo la numerosa prole). Jo è spossata e tutto questo crea in lei una fragilità mentale che dovrà essere affrontata in un confronto finale con Jake.
