Certainly worth watching for the cast alone. Hepburn and a bearish Robert
Wagner spend much of their time sniping wickedly at each other in this
otherwise standard stolen goods adventure. It is sometimes funny,
occasionally offbeat (the bandit's ball is a very bizarre trip), and
offers
a few tiny surprises along the way. Also interesting to see Jerry Orbach,
best known as smartass detective Lenny Briscoe on NBC's "Law & Order",
playing a rotten creep on Audrey's trail. Only problem I had with the
film
is the hideous red & white polka-dotted dress Aud' wears in the first half
of the film, made up for somewhat by two gorgeous Givenchy gowns elsewhere
in the production. There's also featured a fabulous villain's mansion
hidden away in the Latin-American desert at which I wouldn't mind
vacationing!

I really enjoyed watching this film; a made for TV movie filmed in the
late 1980s. Some of the reviewers have expressed disappointment with
this film; expecting some serious Audrey Hepburn classic I guess. Hey
guys, that is not what this movie is about! Audrey and Robert Wagner
were already proven stars when this movie was made. It was not the
vehicle that made them stars nor was it meant to be. They were doing it
for fun; much like an old timers baseball game. They wanted to perform
for their loyal fans and enjoy themselves in the process. Nothing
serious was meant for this film and it would be interesting to see the
outtakes. I am sure Audrey cracked up laughing a few times when she
repeated some lines in this movie that she had said in some other movie
over twenty years before. This movie was more of a pleasant
retrospective piece than anything meant to be serious. Much like a 55
year old Mickey Mantle at bat at an old-timers game or Dean Martin and
Frank Sinatra doing some stand up comedy together in the early 1990s.
Without spending much energy on their part all of these old-timers
could still be fun to watch. It is a great film to watch as long as you
remember that it is not serious; nor meant to be. There is one serious
note to all this that I would like to conclude with. This would have
been an even greater film had Audrey not died prematurely just a few
years later. That is the sad part about all this. Audrey, we miss you.

This film was made for television and the night it first aired it had
great ratings for viewers, because Audrey Hepburn was in it (one of
her, by then, very rare appearances). The critics disliked the whole
thing, but apparently because of their fondness for Miss Hepburn they
ne'er said a critical thing about her in their reviews.
Well, I saw the film recently and I thought it was pretty good, as far
as television movies go. Sure, she looked older than she had in 'Robin
And Marion'. She was older. But she still retained some degree of her
on-screen charm unmatched by any other actor. I truly enjoyed the film
for all the minutes that she graced the screen, and they kept the
camera trained on her quite a bit.
This film was touted as a 'Charade' type sort of comedy/caper involving
some stolen Fabergé Eggs. What ensues is a tale typical of a Hepburn
caper vehicle, with Robert Wagner thrown in to boot. I never liked
Wagner until I saw this. He actually was quite a leading man, and
although aging, he held his own as far as charm and sophistication
went. He and Hepburn should have teamed up much earlier than this
flick.
What a wonderful ,caring person, Audrey to appear in this film
(according to some biographers she may have agreed to do it so that her
long-time agent Kurt Frings, who was now ailing, could collect his
$75,000 fee from her). This was her last 'feature starring role' and
one of only a trio of television drama appearances. I was lucky enough
to see this one, now I'm praying that they release 'Mayerling' on DVD
soon.
If you get a chance you must check this one out. It's a fun film, not
meant to be an Emmy chaser. Just good Ole' clean fun.

I enjoy this movie more each time I watch it. It at it has all of the
elements that make for a good romantic comedy.
The main characters - portrayed on the one hand by the inimitable
Audrey Hepburn and on the other by the still sleek Robert Wagner -are
as lively and believable as ever. We are given as a bonus the added
abilities of Jerry Orbach as the mysterious bad - good guy.
All of the elements of the classic romantic comedy are in evidence
here.
There is a great cast. There is incisive and clever dialogue. There is
the element of danger without being so dramatic that one forgets that
one is watching a comedy. There is the hate / love relationship that
develops, with the viewers permission, into a love / hate and then a
love only relationship.
Best yet it is all folded up in the course of an almost unbelievable
story. Surely the mark of a good Romance.

The class and style of Audrey Hepburn and Robert Wagner make this an
enjoyable lark. The plot and writing are weak, but Hepburn's smile and
style
are captivating. Wagner obviously enjoy being Hepburn's foil - and
flirting
with her in the process.

Audrey Hepburn was in very few films in the 80's. This was the worst of the
lot. At the start Audrey steals some treasures from a museum and is later
inolved with a host of characters that have some interest in her loot. The
acting was mediocre. The plot was predictable and boring.
