The Spider and the Fly

A committed and cunning detective (Portman) is out to catch his nemesis and a man he respects - sophisticated burglar, Rolfe. During his investigations he falls in love with Rolfe's confederate (Gray), who in turn worships Rolfe. This triangle of love and crime comes to a head when WWI breaks out and Rolfe's skills could now become very useful.

Enjoyable thriller / drama focussing on 3 people who rather like / love each other, but how will it all get resolved. The characters are perhaps a bit cold and underdeveloped but the acting, particularly from Portman is strong and it has a playful, sometimes witty script.
