Overview:

An irrepressible cad by nature, Michael James is determined to reform and stay faithful to his fiancée, Carole. However, Michael's attempt at fidelity is jeopardized when numerous attractive women become smitten with him, including Liz and Rita. Meanwhile, another of Michael's admirers, Renée, is the object of fixation for his therapist, the wacky Dr. Fritz Fassbender.

Description

Notorious womanizer Michael James (Peter O\'Toole) wants to be faithful to his fiancée Carole Werner (Romy Schneider), but every woman he meets seems to fall in love with him, including neurotic exotic dancer Liz Bien (Paula Prentiss) and parachutist Rita (Ursula Andress) who accidentally lands in his car. His psychoanalyst, Dr. Fritz Fassbender (Peter Sellers), cannot help, since he is stalking patient Renée Lefebvre (Capucine), who in turn longs for Michael. Carole, meanwhile, decides to make Michael jealous by flirting with his nervous wreck of a friend, Victor Shakapopulis (Woody Allen).

A catastrophe appears on the horizon when all the characters check into a quaint hideaway hotel in the French countryside for the weekend, unaware of each other\'s presence. Michael tries to fend off Renée\'s advances by steering Fassbender her way, but Fassbender\'s wife Anna is determined to keep him to herself. By the time Michael finally is able to meet Carole\'s parents and agree to settle down, he and Fassbender both catch the eye of yet another young woman, creating the distinct possibility of the whole thing happening all over again.
