I Was an Adventuress

Tanya passes herself off as a countess. The name she uses is Countess Tanya Vronsky. She is really a poor ballet dancer. Two partners work with her. The three of them run confidence tricks. They move among the wealthy circles of Europe. Fake jewellery is their method. A rich mark is all they need. Then Tanya meets Paul Vernay. Her first thought is to rob him. She changes her mind and decides she wants to marry him and leave the past behind. Her partners agree to it on one condition, that she does one last job with them. Vera Zorina, Richard Greene, Erich von Stroheim and Peter Lorre appear in the eighty one minute film, an American production Gregory Ratoff finished in 1940.
