Charlie Castle (Jack Palance), a former Broadway actor and current star of Hoff International Pictures, does not want to renow his contract. Dissatisfied with the type of parts he has been given, he has told his agent Nat Danziger (Everett Sloane) to inform producer Stanley Hoff (Rod Steiger) of his decision. Additionally, Charlie's insecurity and alcoholism have estranged his from his wife Marion (Ida Lupino), to whom he hopes to be reconciled after breaking with Hoff. Through his aide Smiley Coy (Wendell Corey), Hoff sends Charlie word of his displeasure and offers him more money if he reconsiders. Charlie refuses but lapses into depression, seeking solace in drink and dalliance with Connie Bliss (Jean Hagen), the wife of an associate. Not understanding Charlie's behavior, Marion makes plans to leave him. Hoff appears in person and, after histrionic appeals have failed, resorts to blackmail. He threatens to expose Charlie as the drunk driver of a car which killed a pedestrian in an accident for which Buddy Bliss (Paul Langton) had taken the blame. Faced with this threat, Charlie agrees to sign. In the aftermath of the confrontation, Charlie confides to Smiley Coy that he is concerned about Dixie Evans (Shelley Winters), a bit player who had been with him at the time of the accident. Smiley promises to take care of this problem. Smiley's method is to get Dixie drunk and then push her in front of a car. Her violent death and his wife's departure throw Charlie into an even blacker depression. Charlie is visited on the set by Hank Teagle (Wesley Addy), who confesses that he hopes to marry Marion after her divorce. Charlie returns home and makes one last appeal to Marion to stay with him. Just after she decides she will stay, Marion discovers that Charlie has slit his wrists in the bath and died.
