* "Il guappo": Saverio is an otherwise cheerful clown, driven to distraction by an unwelcome guest, namely, Don Carmine the mob boss, who has lived with his family for ''ten years''.
* "Pizze e credito": Rosario and Sofia are a husband and wife operating a pizza stand from their front door. Young, sexy Sofia (20-year-old Creator/SophiaLoren in her StarMakingRole in Italy) is cheating on her doughy, middle-aged husband with a neighbor. One day, Sofia loses her emerald ring in a pizza (or so she thinks), causing the two of them to go on a frantic search.
* "Funeralino": Of a child, with the grieving mother and a crowd of children following the funeral carriage through the streets.
* "I giocatore": Count Prospero (played by Vittorio de Sica), has such a serious gambling problem that his wife has taken control of the family bankroll; the count has to be stopped from pawning a silver place setting to get gambling money. Prospero is reduced to playing cards with an 8-year-old boy to get his fix.
* "Teresa": Teresa is a Roman prostitute who has come to Naples to marry a rich young businessman who took a fancy to her. But after she gets married she finds out that something quite different is going on.
* "Il professore": Ersilio is a local man who makes a living dispensing advice, for a fee, to all the working-class folks in his neighborhood. They come to him as a group asking how to deal with Duke Alfonso, an arrogant rich dude who insists on driving his car through their crowded, narrow streets, forcing the people of the neighborhood to make way.

* AnthologyFilm: Six stories of life in Naples.
* DoorClosesEnding
** After Don Carmine finds out that he does ''not'' have advanced heart disease (it was indigestion) and is actually just fine, he comes back to Saverio's house bent on revenge. But the sight of Saverio's family cowering in fear, especially the little boy on the verge of tears, causes him to leave and shut the door behind him.
** "Teresa" ends with the door closing to the husband's mansion, after changing her mind and accepting his humiliating but lucrative deal.
* GraveMarkingScene: An unwilling one. Saverio is required to make ritual visits to and say prayers at the grave of Don Carmine's wife Maria.
* {{TheMafia}}: Saverio longs to be freed from the mob boss who lives in his house.
* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: It seems that ten years ago, Saverio's wife comforted Don Carmine the widower, and invited him to stay with them. So he did, and ten years later he's still there, bossing them around.
* YourCheatingHeart: Sofia tells her husband that she's going to Mass, but instead she goes around the corner and has sex with Alfredo, a handsome shoe salesman. As it turns out that's where she forgot her ring.
