Wendell Armbruster Jr. embarks on a journey to Ischia to claim his father's body, killed in an automobile accident during an annual trip to the resort island in the Bay of Naples. For the past decade, Baltimore industrialist Wendell Armbruster Sr. has spent a month each year at the Grand Hotel Excelsior, ostensibly for the therapeutic mud baths. On his way, Wendell Jr. encounters Pamela Piggott, a traveler from London who has come to Ischia to claim the body of her mother, Catherine.

The film was nominated for six Golden Globe Awards: Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Best Director (Wilder), Best Screenplay (Diamond & Wilder), Best Supporting Actor — Motion Picture (Revill), Best Actress – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical (Mills), and Best Actor – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical—the last of which was won by Lemmon, who set a record by winning his third Golden Globe in this particular category.
