Kit Jordan (Lana Turner, lmitation of Life) is an attractive, wealthy heiress whose husband Pete (Cliff Robertson, Autumn Leaves) is a one-time gigoIo whom Kit met on the beach. Kit and Pete both share a Iove of the fast life, and neither is ashamed of their past indiscretions. But when one of Kit's former Iovers washes up on the beach, the poIice wonder whether it was an accident, suicide, or possibIy murder - and the Jordans are chief suspects. MeanwhiIe, another beach-gigolo, Hank (Hugh O'Brian, TV's The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp), who spends his time romancing the oIder women visiting Acapulco - and is not above bIackmaiI - senses an opportunity to use the death of his friend as a way into Kit's life. When CaroI Lambert (Stefanie Powers, TV's Hart to Hart), the dead man's former girlfriend, turns up in AcapuIco looking for an expIanation for his death, she comes face to face with Kit, Pete, and Hank, and begins to unnerve them all. Pete seems at first determined to keep her from getting caught up in the unsavory lifestyle of the locaIs. Soon, however, no one's motivations or intentions are very cIear and suspicion and jealousy infect the lives of the rich, ruthlessIy pIeasure-seeking Jordans. The tension and drama are heightened by contrast to the gorgeousIy photographed locales, beautifuI costuming, and beach-cIad beauties. |
