There the duke is most at home, working alongside three professional gardeners among his flowers or walking his pugs in the countryside. In February or March, the Windsors sail for New York, where they rent an apartment in the Waldorf Towers. Part of their U.S. sojourn is spent in lending their immense prestige to charity balls and functions in New York, part in Florida in the homes of old friends who have often given the balls...

It is to Chaplin's credit as a major artist that the film's excellent romantic climax is not a scene but a single close-up of Loren as she watches Brando's boat sail away, thinking he is on it.
