1930年代的上海，在同一间工厂做工的世钧（黎明）和曼桢（吴倩莲）成为恋人。曼桢早年丧父，姐姐曼璐（梅艳芳）为了养活一家老小，心痛离别恋人去当舞女赚钱，最终嫁给了有妇之夫祝鸿才（葛优）。世钧收到告急家书回到南京，方知家人召回只为让其成亲。因为性格上的软弱，也因久等不来曼桢的书信，世钧最终迎娶了他并不喜欢的门当户对的翠芝（吴辰君）。上海这边，不能生育的曼璐为保全自已的地位，设计令曼桢怀上了祝鸿才的孩子，葬送了曼桢与世钧的爱情。曼璐死后，曼桢为了孩子委身祝鸿才。两个有缘无分的人就这样错过情缘。

希达、希伦、希棣和希素等四姊妹自小丧母，性格各有不同。希达贤良淑德，为了照顾父亲和三名妹妹，身兼母职，连自己的终身大事也置诸脑后；希伦风情万种，男人见一个俘虏一个，整日沉醉在被追求的甜蜜中；希棣爽朗好动，活像个小男生；希？？则娇俏柔弱，没丁点儿主见。在希棣的穿针引线下、大姐终觅得如意郎君，但一个转身，却被希伦勾引过去；希素也掉进了爱河，而且还决定与男友私奔，把急性子希棣弄得头昏转向！《四千金》的格局有点类似Loiusa May Alcott的经典闺秀小说《小妇人》，但郑慧的原著和陶秦的改编，却成功地给故事附予了一份强烈的时代感，四个女主角的性格也刻划得活灵活现，加上选角恰到好处（穆虹的大方得体、叶枫的千娇百媚、林翠的活泼生鬼、苏凤的小鸟依人），遂造就出一套百看不厌的时代经典。它的广受欢迎使陶秦在五九年拍了续集《兰闺风云》。

A doctor's wife tires of his obsession with model trains, and spends her days wondering about the son she gave up for adoption at birth. While eating at a roadside cafe, she encounters a British hitchhiker, who turns out to be her son. They spend time together trying to find a bond. The son begins to hate the husband, and the wife begins worrying about the safety of her husband and his train set. Written by Ed Sutton {esutton@mindspring.com}For this psychological drama, Dennis Potter reworked his 1974 TV play, Schmoedipus, transposing the setting from London to the United States. The title "Track 29" is taken from the lyrics of "Chattanooga Choo Choo." Distraught and dreamy Linda Henry (Theresa Russell) complains to her husband, surgeon Henry Henry (Christopher Lloyd), about their sex-less, childless marriage, but he's obsessed with his basement model railroad layout and also engaged in an affair with a nurse (Sandra Bernhard). When mysterious stranger Martin (Gary Oldman) drops in on Linda, he claims to be her long-lost illegitimate son. As seen in flashbacks, the 16-year-old Linda was raped at a carnival by a man (Gary Oldman) who resembles Martin. Subsequent events hint at Martin as a delusion, a product erupting from Linda's fantasy world. Written by Bhob Stewart {bhob@genie.com}
