Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward and Joan Collins make a hilarious love triangle in this "wild comedy of romantic confusion and suburban turmoil" (The Film Daily) in a small town with big problems. Full of seductive laughs and uproarious situations, this "audience-rocking comedy" (L.A. Examiner) ends with one hell of a bang!

Harry Bannerman (Newman) is a normal, if not unhappy, guy. His only problem is a wife (Woodward) too busy looking after the community to look after the bedroom. But his pent up troubles explode when a sultry and determined neighbor (Collins) takes interest in their shared marital neglect at the same time the Army decides to build a missile station in the town! Now, caught between his crusading wife and the temptress next door, Harry will have to get real busy real fast if he's to save the town from becoming Ground Zero and keep his marriage from moving to DEFCON 1.
