When a close friend dies of a sudden heart attack, middle-aged husbands Gus (John Cassavetes), Archie (Peter Falk) and Harry (Ben Gazzara) face their own mortality by going on an extended, four-day bender. Beginning in the streets and bars of New York City, the three buddies reminisce, ride the subways, shoot hoops, and drink their way to the hotels and casinos of London, where they pick up women and gamble. Finally, Gus and Archie have had enough adventure and return to their Long Island homes and families, while Harry decides he'd rather stay in England and enjoy his newfound freedom.
