IMDb plot summary: A gentleman thief and a lady pickpocket join forces to con a beautiful perfume company owner. Romantic entanglements and jealousies confuse the scheme.
Directed by Ernst Lubitsch. Starring Miriam Hopkins, Kay Francis, Herbert Marshall, and Charles Ruggles.
This has a good concept and good individual moments but it somehow lacks the connective tissue to tie it all together for me to really love it. Still charming enough that I bet it'll do OK.
3 stars.
