As with the play, Charles Sorel (Harry Madden) is murdered by jealous husband Leo Sartori (Walter Matthau) on the Sartori yacht. He was shot while escaping through a port hole, and the body was lost at sea. Charlie's best friend George Tracy (Tony Curtis) arrives to give the eulogy at Charlie's memorial service, held at Charlie's beach house. After the service, everyone leaves, but then Bruce Minton III (Pat Boone) shows up with a dazed naked woman (Debbie Reynolds) cloaked in Bruce's overcoat. Bruce dumps the woman on George and leaves him with the girl, who apparently has amnesia. She sleeps the night then wakes up screaming. George then learns that she is the reincarnated Charles Sorel. The rest of the movie expands on the play and adds a romance with Bruce, an attempted rape by Leo, gunplay by Rusty, and ends with yet another reincarnation.
