The late 1940s. Richard Langley, a bachelor playboy, narrates a story that starts when his best friend, Harry Allen, invites him to lunch to tell Richard he's in love. Trouble is, Harry's already married to Pat; he worries Pat would be hurt too deeply by a divorce. Then, Harry's new love, Kay, joins them. Richard is smitten, so when he finds out that Pat may be in love with someone else but won't tell Harry because she fears he would be too hurt, Richard can't decide if he should let all the cats out of the bag. He'd unite pairs of lovers, but he'd lose Kay. Meanwhile, Harry decides that a swift end to Pat's life would be more kind than divorcing her. He buys poison.

The movie that Pierce Brosnan is watching in the movie theater is actually 1951's "Pandora and the Flying Dutchman" starring Ava Gardner and James Mason. There is a visible "Pandora and the Flying Dutchman" movie poster behind Pierce Brosnan as he makes a telephone call in the lobby of the theater. "Pandora and the Flying Dutchman" is in color whereas "East Side, West Side" was in black and white. "Pandora" was made two years after the setting of "Married Life" which starts in 1949.
