Salome
Princess Salome (Rita Hayworth) is the daughter of King Herod (Charles Laughton) of Galilee. Cast out after her affair with Caesar's nephew, Salome finds herself back in the kingdom of her father when she falls in love with Claudius (Stewart Granger), the commander of her father's army. Meanwhile, Salome's evil mother, Queen Herodias, is continually being condemned by John the Baptist, and plotting to use Salome as a tool to get the prophet executed.
Forbidden
On a cruise ship headed to Havana, librarian Lulu Smith (Barbara Stanwyck) meets dashing attorney Bob Grover (Adolphe Menjou), and they quickly become inseparable. When they return home, their relationship is complicated by an inconvenient fact: Bob is married and unwilling to leave his bedridden wife. Their relationship dissolves, and Lulu decides not to tell him that she's pregnant with his child. But, when Bob becomes district attorney, a nosy reporter may uncover the explosive news anyway.
Love Has Many Faces
Wealthy Kit Jordon (Lana Turner) and her dissolute husband, Pete (Cliff Robertson), are in Acapulco, Mexico, when a corpse washes onto the beach. The deceased was a lover of Kit's and a friend of Pete's, so the police question the Jordans. Then the dead man's girlfriend (Stefanie Powers) arrives, and she and Pete have an affair. Luckily, Kit has her choice of men to distract her. There is gigolo Hank (Hugh O'Brian), bullfighter Julian (Carlos Montalban) and, when in a pinch, even her husband.
There's Something About a Soldier
Wally Williams (Tom Neal) and Frank Molloy (Bruce Bennett) are friends at an officers' school. Tension builds between them when they befriend Carol Harkness (Evelyn Keyes), a secretary at the school. While both men vie for Carol's affections, Wally alienates himself from the rest of the squad with his brashness. He has a change of heart when Carol tells him about Frank's heroic military service. He alters his behavior and wins Carol's heart in the process.
The Running Man
When pilot Rex Black (Laurence Harvey) destroys his plane in a crash the day after his insurance policy expires, the insurance company refuses to give him any money. To strike back at the agency, Rex fakes his death, changes his identity and escapes to Spain, with 50,000 pounds in life insurance money. His wife (Lee Remick) joins him in Spain, but when an insurance investigator (Alan Bates) arrives unexpectedly, Rex's paranoia causes him to flee again.
Cat Ballou
When hired gun Tim Strawn (Lee Marvin) kills her rancher father, Cat Ballou (Jane Fonda) becomes an outlaw set on vengeance. Enlisting the help of washed-up gunslinger Kid Shelleen (also Marvin) as well as the handsome bandit Clay Boone (Michael Callan), Cat strikes back at the land-development company that employed Strawn, and eventually targets the assassin himself. Adding to the lively comedic mood of the film are narrative song performances by Nat King Cole and Stubby Kaye.
The Notorious Landlady
When her husband disappears, Carlyle Hardwicke finds it impossible to rent a room in her London apartment, since everyone assumes she's a murderer. Recently arrived American diplomat William Gridley, however, has no idea about her reputation. Sparks fly between the pair, and Gridley rents the room. When his boss, Franklyn Ambruster, learns what Gridley has blundered into, he reproves him until he meets the lovely Carlyle. The two men try to clear her name.
