War widow Deborah Kerr volunteers for the Red Cross on a south Pacific island filled with obnoxious, sex starved servicemen. None is more obnoxious than Navy Lt. Colonel William Holden, who decides she will be his next victim. She falls for it, even though she can't stand the man, and they have a torrid romance. Over-the-top melodrama is impossible to take seriously.
