synopsis
Richard Widmark stars as a professional gambler who finds himself financially embarrassed. To bail himself out, Widmark marries into a wealthy Mexican household. What he doesn't know is that the family is cursed: its female members are compelled to love their men literally to death. Chaim Topol and Cesar Romero costar in the inconsequential but enjoyable comedy.
