Ce film raconte la vie quelque peu romancée de Peter Henlein, un serrurier et horloger de Nuremberg à la fin du XV et du début du XVI siècle, souvent considéré comme l'inventeur de la montre, dite "L'œuf de Nuremberg", même si cela est discuté. Il s'agit de l'apologie d'une vie d'humanité, de conscience et de labeur.

The setting is San Francisco; Joey Evans (Frank Sinatra) is a second-rate singer, a heel known for his womanizing ways (calling women "mice"), but charming and funny. When Joey meets Linda English (Kim Novak), a naive chorus girl, he has stirrings of real feelings. However, that does not stop him from romancing a former flame and ex-stripper (Joey says, "She used to be 'Vera...with the Vanishing Veils'"), now society matron Vera Prentice-Simpson (Rita Hayworth), a wealthy, willful, and lonely widow, in order to convince her to finance his dream, "Chez Joey", a night club of his own.
