When mob boss Max offers them work as out-of-town mafia "muscle", the two bumbling friends head for New York and hilariously find they're in way over their heads.
Handsome playboy Nicky Ferrante (Cary Grant) and beautiful night club singer Terry McKay (Deborah Kerr) fall in love while on a cruise from Europe to New York. Despite being engaged to other people, both agree to reunite at the top of the Empire State Building in six months. The path of true love does not always run smooth however, and tragedy threatens to tear the couple apart.
