The Yellow Rolls-Royce

A stunning yellow Rolls-Royce limousine is purchased by Charles, Marquess of Frinton, as a belated 10th wedding anniversary present for his French wife, Eloise. Lord Frinton, Under-Secretary of State at the Foreign Office, is a longtime horse owner who has his heart set on winning the Ascot Gold Cup. The car is returned to its owner, Hooper, after Eloise is caught with her lover, John Fane, in the back of the Rolls. The car then finds new owners: American gangster Paolo Maltese, who purchases it during a trip to Italy, and American widow Gerda Millett, who joins the Yugoslavian resistance against the invading Nazis.
