Cuarteto
"Cuarteto" es una película británica con cuatro segmentos, cada uno basado en una historia de W. Somerset Maugham. Cada segmento es presentado por el autor. Fue un éxito y eso propició producir dos secuelas "Trio" (1950) y "Encore" (1951), y popularizó el formato de película de compendio. Los guiones de las historias fueron escritos por R. C. Sherriff.
Dirección Harold French, Ken Annakin
