Jewel Robbery

Jewel Robbery
Movie · Comedy · Crime

William Powell and Kay Francis share more than a love of jewelry in this sparkling romantic comedy directed with a Lubitsch-like touch by William Dieterle. Bored of her marriage to a rich but dull Baron, Teri (Francis) is searching for a lover who'll put some excitement in her life. So when she joins her husband at a jewelry store to purchase the famous Excelsior diamond ring, the Baroness finds the shop has exactly what she's been looking for when it's robbed by a debonair gentleman thief (Powell). Refusing to be locked in the vault, Teri agrees to not make a sound until the robber gets safely away. But when she returns home to find the ring in her safe and the thief waiting patiently in her bedroom, the Baroness is about to find the thrill she's been craving.
