Johnny Farrell (Glenn Ford), is a small-time hood hired to run an illegal high-class casino in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Singer Gilda (Rita Hayworth) is the casino owner's wife, and a former lover of Farrell?s. Mundson (George Macready), the mobster casino owner with possible ties to Nazis, doesn?t know about Gilda and Farrell?s past, and assigning Farrell to keep an eye on his flirty wife. Farrell keeps track of her dating men at all hours of the night. After a number of twists and turns the secrets of the three are eventually revealed. The most memorable scene may be Hayworth singing Put the Blame on Mame while doing what critics at the time called a "fully clothed striptease."
