In the winter of 180 A.D., the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (Guinness) fights to keep Germanic barbarians from invading his northern territories on the Danube frontier. His deputies are the Greek ex-slave Timonides (Mason), a closet Christian, and the stern and honest general Gaius Livius (Boyd). Livius has close connections with the imperial family, being the lover of Aurelius' philosopher daughter Lucilla (Loren) and a friend of her brother Commodus (Plummer). Nevertheless, he is amazed to hear that Aurelius wants to make him his heir. Despite his military obligations the emperor has egalitarian ideals, dreaming of a day when Rome grants equal rights to men of all nations. He knows that he will not live to achieve this end, and trusts Livius to do so more than his charismatic but brutal son. The discovery that his father has effectively disinherited him hurts Commodus immensely, and damages the almost brotherly relationship he had enjoyed with Livius.

A Naples en 1647, le vice-roi imposa des impôts qui frappèrent le peuple et suscitèrent un mécontentement généralisé. Tommaso Aniello, dit Masaniello, un jeune pêcheur de Portici, fomente la rébellion et la police tente de le capturer. Il vit avec sa sœur Lucia, qui est amoureuse d'Alfonso sans savoir qu'il est le fils du vice-roi. Le fait historique de la révolte de Naples menée par Masaniello est l'occasion d'une revisitation naïvement romancée et mise en images avec une médiocrité absolue.

Riche confiseur romain, M. Dupont est fier d'exhiber sa voiture neuve. Il rêve de la conduire avec, à ses côtés, la belle locataire du premier étage. L'occasion lui en est donnée par la nécessité d'aller chercher la robe de première communion de sa fille, qui n'est toujours pas livrée. Mais la ravissante voisine refuse cette offre. C'est donc seul que M. Dupont fonce dans les rues, attrape une contravention et arrive chez la couturière. Mais au moment de repartir, la voiture tombe en panne. Course aux taxis. Impossible d'en avoir un. Reste le trolleybus. Cris, bousculades, injures. Pour être plus libre de ses mouvements, il confie le paquet contenant la robe à un passant pour quelques instants. Mais la dispute terminée, le passant a disparu et la robe avec. Que faire ? C'est finalement la belle du premier qui offre une de ses robes de soirée pour y tailler la robe de communiante. Tout le monde s'affaire. Le cardinal doit arriver d'une minute à l'autre pour présider la cérémonie. M. Dupont tente vainement de retarder celle-ci. Grâce à l'adresse brodée par la couturière, la vraie robe est ramenée par le passant. Soulagement. Sonnent les cloches de ce jour de Pâques.
