Deux célibataires, Pina et Adolfo, après s'être contactés par le biais d'une petite annonce, font leur première rencontre au cours d'un dimanche à la campagne. Adolfo est un employé de librairie maltraité par ses supérieurs ; Pina, quant à elle, travaille dans une exploitation agricole. Elle a un amant, mais celui-ci est marié et ne cherche aucunement à l'épouser. Ils espèrent beaucoup de cette journée dominicale...mais, ils devront, l'un et l'autre, déchanter. Adolfo, non dénué d'arrière-pensée, se révèle mesquin, médiocre et plutôt porté sur la boisson. Après l'avoir ramené chez elle, Pina ne se privera pas de lui dire ses pensées. Ils se séparent donc sans prendre d'engagement pour l'avenir, excepté le fait de s'écrire quand même.

The Magnificent Cuckold is about a hat tycoon who is ecstatically, if not hungrily, in love with his youthful wife. It is all blissful, that is, until our man, middle-aged and somewhat of a square among his blasé, upper-class friends to whom cuckoldry is a common practice, is seduced by one of them. At this point doubts and suspicions, like conscience, begin to plague him. If he could succumb to extramarital confections, why not his gorgeous mate? Quickly his love for his spouse degenerates beyond obsessive, into the realm of maniacal. He becomes madly concerned that his wife is cheating on him --even though she is not being unfaithful. When he looks at her it becomes obvious to him that she is a very attractive woman. And, all the men around her must be dying to be with her. Gnawed by jealously, he will imagine variations on nabbing her and her lover red-handed.

In 1958 the Merlin law made brothels illegal in Italy. Adua, Lolita, Marilina and Millie are four prostitutes whose brothel in Rome is shut down. Under Adua's leadership, they pool their savings, 500,000 lire apiece, to open a restaurant on the outskirts of Rome. They buy a run-down building, and hire workmen to fix it up, but when they apply to open the restaurant, their permit is rejected because of their history of prostitution. One of Adua's former customers, Ercoli, agrees to buy the building, use his connections, and get the permit in his name, but he expects them to run the restaurant as a front and work as a brothel on the upper floors, in return for a rent of 1 million lire a month.

The film is the story of a wandering tramp who has an affair with the wife of a restaurant owner. The two then conspire to murder her husband and attempt to live happily ever after. The catch is built into the title of the book, however, and the long arm of the law rings again to disrupt the couple’s already guilt-wracked life, ironically convicting the tramp for an accidental death despite his being absolved of guilt in the actual murder.
