Who's Been Sleeping in My Bed? is a 1963 romantic comedy film directed by Daniel Mann, starring Dean Martin, Elizabeth Montgomery, Carol Burnett, Jill St. John, and Martin Balsam.
Jason Steel (Martin) is an actor who plays a doctor on TV. Off the set, he's the fiancé of art teacher Melissa Morris (Montgomery). Jason doesn't quite know what to expect of marriage, especially after seeing how the fires have burned out in all his poker buddies' unions. Complicating matters is that he is so convincing in his TV role that his friends' wives and girlfriends have confused Jason with his television persona and won't leave him alone.
His poker buddies are envious, but Melissa isn't at all happy. She takes her frustration to her friend Stella (Burnett), who hatches a scheme to force Jason's hand by making Melissa pretend she's fallen in love with another man and has decided to marry him. As you might imagine, Hilarity Ensues.
