Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn play married attorneys Adam and Amanda Bonner who are on opposing sides at home as well as in the trial of sexy blonde Doris Attinger (Judy Holliday) who shot her husband's (Tom Ewell) mistress. While Adam is the prosecutor in the case, Amanda defends Doris because she believes that Doris has the right to get revenge–just as men always have. Sexual equality, Amanda argues, is what should set Doris free. Doris is acquitted, but both Adam and Amanda admit that men and women are different, and, hence, the battle of the sexes continues.
