Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

Veteran actors Alberto Sordi and Bernard Blier play the earthy Battistini and shabby but elegant Mondardini, two older men abandoned by their families during the vacation months who decide to vacation together on the famed beaches of Cote d'Azur. The two bicker, quarrel and make up while they pursue various amorous dreams with the lovely women they encounter. Battistini runs into the man who stole his wife from him (Vittorio Caprioli) and is offered a chance to take her back. His own fortune depleted by his incessant pursuit of women, Mondardini begins a relationship with the ruined gambler Germaine (Andrea Ferreol). Misfortunes of all kinds appear ready to derail these two bon-vivants' good times, but they always manage to shrug them off and enjoy themselves.
