Quotes:
Helena Everett:
Of course love is important, Dear; it's just not as reliable as a really good piece of property. You will need a home large enough to allow you and your extremely loving husband to, from time to time, when it's necessary, completely avoid one another.

While it is not a great movie, it is a very pleasant one: its best trump is vivacious Téa Leoni, utterly charming as the counterfeit contessa. D.W. Moffett is quite convincing as her relaxed suitor, and David Beecroft and Susan Walters aptly unpleasant. I had seen 'THE COUNTERFEIT CONTESSA ' several years ago, with much pleasure; it was again shown on French TV a few days ago, and I found it up to my memories. Most viewers ought to enjoy it, if they like charming.. and relaxing modern fairy tales.
