The Tenth Man

Aug 12, 1936
George Winter, a self-made businessman and MP, lets nothing get in the way of his climb to the top. Certain in his belief in the corruptible and foolish nature of others, whenever Winter meets a competitor who can't be bought, he destroys the man through methods both legal and underhanded. Then, he meets his 'tenth man': a victim who refuses to be silenced by threat or bribery, with the power to bring Winter's house of cards crashing down around him.

Le Chant du Danube

Mar 15, 1934
Johann Strauss fils (Esmond Knight) joue du violon dans l'orchestre de son père, Johann Strauss I (Edmund Gwenn), mais n'est pas encouragé à composer par celui-ci. Strauss donne tout de même des leçons de chant à la fille du pâtissier, Rasi (Jessie Matthews) à qui il dédicace toutes ses chansons. Puis, il fait la rencontre de la comtesse (Fay Compton), qui a composé quelques vers et lui demande de l'aider pour les traduire en musique. Quand son mari le prince (Frank Vosper) en entend parler par une servante, il débarque dans la salle de musique en furie, mais le nom de Strauss le calme un peu. La comtesse tombe peu à peu sous le charme de Strauss Jr. Avec un ami, elle complote pour que Strauss père reporte sa représentation et que la pièce de Strauss, Le Beau Danube bleu, puisse être présentée devant une assistance. Il conduit lui-même la valse, et devient la sensation de Vienne.
