Despite his position as a respected professional in the world of showbusiness, Mario is precipitated into the depths of depression by his wife's abandon and the onslaught of middle age. Throwing himself heart and soul into rehearsals for his upcoming film on tango, his quest for a dancing and acting cast takes him to Angelo, a mafioso cabaret owner who's looking for something to do with his money. Angelo's request that Mario audition his young, talented and beautiful dancer girlfriend, Elena, leads to a romance fraught with the danger of Angelo's determined refusal to lose the girl.

Pod, Homely, Peagreen and Arrietty Clock are Borrowers. Only six inches tall, they live under the floorboards of a large house and borrow everything they need from Joe, Victoria and their son Pete, the members of the kind family who live upstairs. One day, Arrietty's adventurous wanderings lead her into the hands of Pete, with whom she strikes up a warm friendship, and who tells her that his Great Aunt Mary, to whom the house belongs, has died. Since no-one can find the will, evil and ruthless lawyer Ocius Potter has decided to have the place demolished.

Ted Stroehman put the shackles on his life the very day he was supposed to hit the stars. Invited by the darling of his school chum's dreams, Mary Jensen, to be her partner at the graduation ball, an unfortunate incident with his trouser fly had messed the whole thing up. Thirteen years later, it still hurts to think about it. His obsession with the girl leads him to hire crooked sleuth Pat Healy to find out what she's doing these days. Although the investigator's feedback describes her as a fat, crippled, mother-of-four, nothing could actually be further from the truth - it's just that Healy has decided he wants her for himself. But he's not exactly what you could call alone in his desire. No doubt about it, there's definitely "something" about Mary.
