Arsene Lupin is a notorious dashing thief terrorizing the upper class of Paris. Detective Guerchard (Lionel Barrymore) is obsessed chasing the unseen criminal. He arrests the Duke of Charmerace (John Barrymore), but is forced to release the high class Duke who is assumed to be innocent. The stakes are raise when Lupin threatens to steal the Mona Lisa.
This is a fun crime caper. At first, I get a hint of Pink Panther. Of course, it doesn't have any of the physical comedy. The cat and mouse pursuit is a bit fun. Lionel is mugging for the screen. I can see this as more of an Oceans movie where both sides have their thrills and chills.
