Synopsis
Frank Chambers, un jeune désoeuvré, se rend en auto-stop de San Francisco à San Diego. Dans un restaurant où il fait une halte, il fait la connaissance de Nick Smith, le patron de l'établissement, et de son irrésistible épouse, Cora. A la recherche d'un employé, Nick décide d'engager Frank, malgré les réticences de Cora. Peu de temps après, la belle succombe au charme du jeune homme et tous deux deviennent amants. Entraînée par la passion démesurée qu'elle voue au garçon, Cora pousse Frank à éliminer son mari, en faisant passer le crime pour un simple accident. Frank finit par céder à cette insistante prière et supprime Nick...
