"Kreivi" aka the Count plays himself in this amazingly fresh combination
of
documentary and acting. According to his own memoirs Kreivi had been
engaged
76 times but never actually got married. The movie presents stories of
four
typical female victims combined with original material from gigs of this
singing imposter. The acting is campy but so was the person in the real
life
also. His expressions make you laugh, but his actions have also a deeper
level: Any man who has the insolence to present himself with a status
respectable enough, could fool masses of people, especially women
disappointed to their everyday life. At the end of the movie you find
yourself amusingly wondering, what could actually have happened and what's
been made up for the movie. A great comedy with lots of superb Finnish
music!
