Plot Summary: Charles Bonnet (Hugh Griffith)is a greedy, money hungry man who gets his money from art forgery. His most precious art is the "Cellini Venus" statue which would be worth about a million bucks if it wasnt fake. His daughter, Nicole (Audrey Hepburn) knows about his crimes, but always keeps quiet about it. One day, Charles' stupidity gets to him and he lends the fake Venus to a museam. The museam people, (thinking it's real) get ecstatic. But, Charles soon finds out that the museam people are gonna check the Venus, just to see if its real. Charles goes crazy and starts worrying. Now, Nicole has to team up with Simon Dermott (Peter O'Toole), a handsome cat burgler and try to steal the Venus from the museam and get rid of it before the people find out its fake, and before Nicole and Simon fall deeply in love.
