This film essentially begins with a kleptomaniac by the name of "Rina Korff" (Nora Gregor) being observed by an extremely wealthy man known simply as "Mr. Levassor" (Kurt Horwitz) stealing a precious stone from a jewelry store. However, when the store manager calls the police to report the theft, Mr. Levassor pays for the item to partially alleviate the situation. Yet even though the owner is quite satisfied with the transaction, the knowledge that an infamous international thief may have just entered his jurisdiction sparks the interest of a police detective named "Agent Kleinsilber" (Otto Walburg) who sees a promotion in his future if he can apprehend her. So, with the assistance of his bumbling colleague "Otto Fuessli" (Peter Lorre), they immediately question everybody who may have some knowledge related to the case. Of particular interest is the information supplied by a perfume salesman named "Walter Koenig" (Gustav Frohlich) who successfully identifies the rare fragrance from a glove she left behind. Having now obtained a complete description of her, their task is much easier--and this makes Walter feel quite guilty. So much so, that he decides to help her evade the law. But what he doesn't realize is, that the more they get to know each other, the stronger their feelings for each other increase. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an entertaining movie which benefited from good performances by both Nora Gregor and Peter Lorre. Admittedly, it is a bit dated but, even so, I enjoyed this film for the most part, and I have rated it accordingly.
