Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Paris, 1928: When White Russian general Brynner picks out amnesiac peasant Bergman to claim she's the daughter of the murdered Tsar, little does he know how well she'll stand up to a grilling at the hands of Hayes' formidable Empress Dowager. Glossy 'Scope historical puzzler (from the play by Marcelle Maurette and Guy Bolton) with Oscar-winning Bergman on regal form in her first Hollywood picture after her European adventure with Rossellini.
