When Adam and Eva first meet, it is love at first sight in the grandest Hollywood tradition. Normally such a scene would occur at the end of the film, but in this sparkling look at male and female relationships, it is only the beginning. The story jumps ahead four years. By this time, the two are living together and totally bored. While Eva wants to marry and start a family, Adam dreams of having an affair. He gets his opportunity when a pretty and very young woman sashays into the picture. Adam manages to keep his liaison a secret for a while. When Eva finds out, a terrible scene erupts and she leaves him. Left to himself, Adam is forced to come to grips with what Eva really meant to him. Unfortunately, by the time he figures it out, it is almost too late, for she has found a new love, one who is willing to marry her.
