πλοκη : Ο δρ Ντιλέινι (Μπαρτ Λάνκαστερ) είναι ένας πρώην αλκοολικός, ο οποίος ζει στοιχειωμένος από τις προσωπικές του αποτυχίες (ο γιατρός δεν κατάφερε ποτέ να τελειώσει τη σχολή του και πλέον εργάζεται ως χειροπράκτης), τις οποίες στο παρελθόν είχε επιχειρήσει να ξεχάσει πνίγοντας τον πόνο στο ποτό. Η Λόλα (Σίρλεϊ Μπουθ) είναι μια απελπισμένη γυναίκα που ζητά μόνο λίγη στοργή κι αγάπη και ζει με τον πόνο που της προκαλεί το γεγονός ότι δε μπόρεσε ποτέ να ευχαριστήσει το σύζυγό της χαριζοντάς του ένα παιδί. Από τη στιγμή που η Λόλα έχασε το παιδί, μετά τη γέννα έδωσε όλη της την αγάπη σε ένα σκυλάκι, τη Σίμπα, η οποία κάποια στιγμή χάθηκε επίσης. Η Λόλα νιώθει τρομερή μοναξιά και ξαναβρίσκει λίγη χαρά όταν νοικιάζει ένα από τα δωμάτια του σπιτιού της στη Μαρί ....

Plot "Doc" Delaney (Burt Lancaster) is a recovering alcoholic who, in his younger days, was a promising medical student who dropped out of school to take a job to support a pregnant Lola, whose premarital intercourse with Doc caused her father to throw her out of her family's house. Doc, thinking he was doing the right thing, married Lola (Shirley Booth). The child later died, and in the process rendered Lola unable to have any further children, leaving the couple childless. As a result, Doc turned to excessive drinking, causing him to have bouts of anger and murderous rage, and later drinking away a sizeable inheritance from his parents. He eventually joined Alcoholics Anonymous and was able to quit drinking, though he still keeps a bottle in the house to remind him of his past life.Their marriage is a well-crafted ritual of calling each other "daddy" and "baby" with the ever-talkative Lola going all out to be as pleasant and supportive as possible and Doc the grateful yet humourless and withdrawn former alcoholic; gradually the veneer falls away as Lola expresses her feelings about the initial premise of their marriage. Doc continues to insist he's at peace with their lives, but his words and actions in the film show otherwise
