Trapeze

Young acrobat Tino Orsini (Tony Curtis) is an aspiring trapeze artist who comes to Paris in search of Mike Ribble (Burt Lancaster), a former aerialist who has retired after injuring himself. Mike agrees to teach Tino after circus performer Rosa O'Flynn (Katy Jurado) convinces him to stop feeling sorry for himself and to try to recapture some of the fame that eluded him. But when the two men fall in love with the beautiful Lola (Gina Lollobrigida), the triangle threatens the dreams of them all.
