Napolean's forces are sweeping across Europe and Spain is on the brink of falling to the mighty invasion. Standing alone against the onslaught is one brave fighter and his ragtag band of guerillas. Seizing a gigantic cannon, Spanish fighter Miguel (Frank Sinatra) plans to attack Napolean's army by battering the walls of French-occupied Avila. But because he's untrained in complex weaponry, he must rely on the expertise of Captian Trumbell (Cary Grant), a British naval officer. Allies on the battlefield, Trumbell and Miguel soon find themselves in a bitter struggle over Miguels' mistress (Sophia Loren), a sultry beauty drawn to the captain's refined ways... even as they race toward the most harrowing battle of their lives.
