Stewart Granger plays a film producer making a film in the south of France. Causing him no end of trouble on his production is the film's female star, Gianna Maria Canale. Canale is loud, obnoxious and a pain in everyone's ass. She is also having a fling with Stewart while his wife, Donna Reed was off in England. Granger pleads with Canale to behave herself and get the film finished. She responds with a bit of blackmail, continue the affair or she will tell Granger's wife. What is he to do? That night while Granger is having a party, George Sanders puts in an appearance. He introduces himself as a police inspector and informs Granger that Canale has been found murdered. Does Granger know anything about it? "No, No not a thing!" Sanders leaves and Granger jumps in his car and roars off to make sure that he left nothing at their love-nest. He returns to the party and who should appear but Canale, alive and well. What the hell is going on? It seems that Canale is Sanders wife, and now Sanders plans a little payback. Of course Canale does get murdered and Granger is the number one suspect. There are plenty of red herrings, twists and turns and the like in this one. Great back and forth between Sanders and Granger. Good time-waster.
