He falls for her instantly, despite already having wedding plans with Francesca Ferrara (Virna Lisi). Winning Eva's affection proves elusive; she's more interested in money than in love. But Tyvian remains steadfast in his obsession, going after Eva with a fervor that threatens to destroy his life.

Judith Crist New York Herald Tribune Aug 15, 2022
