Komponisten John Berger er plaget af ægteskabelige problemer og kæmper med en deadline for musikken til en operette. Da han får besøg af musikkens muse Polyhymnia, begynder melodierne at flyde, men hun bliver samtidig årsag til en masse forviklinger i det jordiske liv. Hun forelsker sig, ligesom Johns kone Irene, i flyverløjtnanten Harry, mens hendes far Zeus misbilligende ser til og beslutter sig for at gribe ind. Alt imens nærmer premieren på operetten sig med hastige skridt.

Duellen
Knud Leif Thomsen
Frits Helmuth, John Price
A sort of forerunner to Hollywood's Boogie Nights (1997), this Danish melodrama is set in the world of strip clubs. A medical student (Frits Helmuth) earns money for tuition working in a burlesque joint. He falls for one of the girls (Malene Schwarz), but she is also involved with a movie director (John Price). The director and Helmuth get into a philosophical debate about love and Darwinism, and the film ends with a duel (the film's title). Duellen was met with mostly incomprehension when it premiered and is no more lucid when viewed today. The striptease scene featuring full-frontal nudity is tame by modern standards.
