Paul, a penniless painter in Paris, plans to return to the U.S. to his wealthy girlfriend, Laurie, but instead fakes his death to boost his art's value. While Paul secretly paints, his scheming roommate and cohort, Casey, cashes in, romances Laurie, and lands in court for "murder." From drunken debates to outrageous disguises, it's a wild ride when love, art, and lies spark chaos. © 1965 Universal Studios. All Rights Reserved.
