Il conte Max (1957) on Netflix

Plot summary

Alberto Boccetti sells newspapers at a stand on Via Veneto in Rome. Instead of the vacation in the village of Capracotta that his uncle wants for him, he goes to Cortina. There he is taken for Count Max Orsini Varaldo, a nobleman without a penny who lives by scrounging. Baroness Elena di Vallombrosa welcomes him into the company of wealthy aristocrats and invites him to join them on their way to Seville. In that company Alberto also meets Lauretta Campo, the housekeeper of the noble household. He courts the baroness with orchids bought on credit, and in Seville he contracts debts to give her more.
