"Sombrero" tells three intertwining love stories of varying degrees of interest. It's disclosed early on that wealthy Alejandro (Vittoria Gassman) is dying of a brain tumor; he loves the peasant woman Maria of the River Road (Yvonne DeCarlo) but is forced by duty and class position to marry the socially acceptable Elena (Nina Foch). Ruben (Rick Jason) is a candy peddler who falls in love with Lola (Cyd Charisse), whose matador brother (Jose Greco) is strangely possessive of his sister, considering her his good luck charm. The most lighthearted story concerns Pepe (Ricardo Montalban), a wild prankster who makes the greatest cheese in Mexico. He falls in love with Euphemia (Anna Maria Pierangeli), whose father (Thomas Gomez) is the mayor of a rival town and will not agree to their marriage.
