Brothers Lionel and John Barrymore star on screen for their first talkie together. Lionel is Inspector Guerchard, a French detective searching for the famed Arsene Lupin, a master thief. John is the Duke of Charmerace, an indebted socialite. Either one of them could be Arsene Lupin, but it's difficult to tell--as it should be.
It is believed that Arsene Lupin's next object to steal will be Gourney Martin's emerald jewels. Charmerace, Guerchard, and a host of others were at Gourney Martin's estate which, of course, creates a laundry list of potential suspects. Guerchard and some of his undercover men were there, presumably, on business. Charmerace was there to support Gourney in his time of need. Sonia (Karen Morley) was there to... who knows. Was she working for the police or was she working for Arsene Lupin?
Things would play out chaotically as the unknown Arsene Lupin continued to toy with everybody.
