Given to violent, unpredictable behavior, composer Richard Morton (Gary Merrill) is an
accident waiting to happen. Attempting to drown his problems in drink, Morton awakens
with a monumental hangover — and the nagging belief that he has murdered a woman. Did
this, in fact, happen? And was the victim his wealthy, quarrelsome wife (June Vincent), his
former mistress (Hildegarde Neff) or the movie star (Linda Darnell) with whom he has been
carrying on a casual romance? As he attempts to contact the three women, Morton flashes
back to his experiences with each one. The ending is pure Hitchcock, even though the
director of the moment was future Saint helmsman Roy Baker.
