The Count of Luxembourg Synopsis

Duke Rutzinoff is prevented from marrying Angele Didier, an actress, by her lack of title. To obtain a title for her, the duke persuades her to marry the impoverished Count of Luxembourg by proxy, preparing to divorce him immediately afterward, still sight unseen. Angele becomes the Countess of Luxembourg and goes to the Riviera, where she awaits the final decree. She meets the count there, and they fall in love. The enraged duke, thinking himself to have been betrayed, lets Angele know that the man with whom she has fallen in love is the same man who married her for selfish gain. Angele walks out on the count, but when she learns that he sold his title only in order to pay for a friend's operation, she returns to him and they are reconciled.
