九龙皇后

　　在南印度的一个偏远村庄，101岁的Century Gowda去世了，他的三代子孙们有着不同的反应。儿子Gadappa是一位老头子，总是抽着便宜的烟，喝着白兰地，每天无所事事地穿梭在田野间；同时孙子Thamanna是个见钱眼开的小贩，筹划着非法卖掉Century Gowda的五英亩地；曾孙Abhi是个阳光自信的青年，不屈不挠地追求着一个牧羊女孩。三条故事线索交织着，聚合在Century Gowda死后第十一天的葬礼上。

　　Lois Ames is devoted to her job as the editor of a magazine, and her wealthy husband Fred is equally dedicated to polo and parties. Lois's long hours drive her secretary to quit, and she replaces her with Tom Sheridan, who happens to be in the office demonstrating a rowing machine. Tom likes the work and continues to advance until he is indispensable to Lois. Ruth Holman, Tom's fiancée, is jealous of Tom's relationship with Lois and with some reason, as he is falling in love with her. In the meantime, Fred is having an affair with Ann Le Maire, a woman whose interests are closer to his own. Because he feels his love for Lois is hopeless, Tom quits his job and plans his marriage to Ruth. Lois tries to patch things up with Fred, but he suggests that they divorce instead. On Tom's last night, Lois keeps him working late. Ruth is furious and storms up to the office where Lois and Tom are dining. She threatens to tell Lois's husband about their relationship, which leaves the way clear for Lois to announce her pending divorce. Ruth breaks off her engagement to Tom, and he immediately asks Lois to marry him.
