Chance Wayne, a young and beautiful hustler, returns to the town of his birth and becomes entangled in the lives of an aging movie actress, now living undercover as Princess Kosmonopolis, as well as the girl he had to leave behind. Word of his arrival spreads like contagion through the small town, and soon Boss Finley, a political despot and father of the young girl, becomes increasingly interested. What Chance does not know is that unwittingly he has infected the girl and ever since the Boss, his sadistic son and his toadies have lain in wait for his return and for their revenge. Chance's scheme is to use the Princess to promote a motion picture career for himself and his girl. Naturally, in another classic melodrama by Tennessee Williams, this plan goes to seed and fate begins to close in on the passively waiting Chance, who ends up deserted by his girl and his youth.
