Years ago, John Robie (Cary Grant) decided that it was better to live rich than poor. So, he became a jewel thief. He was pretty good at his trade. His ability and modus operandi of sneaking along rooftops gave him the title of “The Cat”. However, a war came up, and he was an integral part of the resistance. This, and the promise to give up his thieving ways, allowed him to go free and enjoy the proceeds from his ill-gotten gains.
Well, it looks like “The Cat" has struck again. Robie can only clear himself by finding the “Copy Cat.” To help, he enlists some old friends, an insurance investigator, and some new friends/or maybe victims.
So, did he do it and try to blame it on someone else?
Why would anyone after all these years want to frame him?
