The story is charming indeed as always as any of Barbara Cartland's novels, love between aristocrat with romantic intrigue. However even usually Barbara wrote good novel still it depends on the actors' work to present the real feelings of each characters.
I definitely agree that a couple in this movie is incredibly perfect, Helena Bonham Carter and Marcus Gilbert showed a very much growing affection between them. Helena is wonderful portrayed her character as a strong girl who had principal with a strong heart to live in that kind society. While Marcus was terrifically charmed and showed his character really well as any of Barbara novel hero described. All other cast are doing terrific job portrayed their characters as described in the novel. Marcus also acted in other Barbara Cartland' adaptation novel "A GHOST IN MONTE CARLO" (worth watching also).
The story of all Barbara novel always happy ending including the film. The movie ended with a wedding scene between Justin and Serena and that's all that matter for a romantic film viewer like me not to forget the creative modest background music that felt matching the movie very well.
