The Adventures of Arsène Lupin
Directed by Jacques Becker
Produced by Lambor Films, Film Costellazione
A charming, witty heist comedy centered on a clever gentleman thief who steals from the wealthy to help the poor, relying on intellect and charm rather than violence.
Arsène Lupin is extremely popular among the population, because he allows the needy to share in his acquired wealth. Before entering the service of the German Emperor Wilhelm II, he removes his vault in Alsace, steals two paintings of old masters, steals valuable gems and calls out to the police prefect to avoid his arrest. But this time he risks being seriously recognized. Lupin must once again use his fine intellect to deftly escape the situation.
