Eastwood plays a wounded Union soldier who has been taken in at a Southern girls' school. The girls become curious and then sensuous. Eastwood's character takes advantage of the situation by charming several of the women. Jealousy sparks and the anger is ultimately focused at Eastwood who ends up suffering a few "mild mishaps" in the film. It was a smash in Europe but failed to ignite any excitement in the US.
