Jewel Robbery (Warner Bros., 1932). Near Mint/Mint. Title Lobby Card (11″ X 14″).
Jewel Robbery is a pre-Code romantic crime film directed by William Dieterle, starring William Powell and Kay Francis. Set in Vienna, the story follows Powell as a suave and sophisticated jewel thief who orchestrates a heist at an upscale jewelry store, only to capture the interest – and perhaps the heart – of a bored, unhappily married baroness (Francis). Perfectly cast as the debonair rogue, Powell exudes charm and wit, while Francis’s baroness sees him as the thrilling escape she desperately craves from her humdrum life. However, her husband has other plans. Blending playful romance, high-class crime, and seductive charm, the film showcases irresistible chemistry between its leads, making Jewel Robbery a stylish and enchanting example of early 1930s Hollywood elegance. This title card is a first time offer from Heritage. It is in beautiful condition, with only a faint bit of foxing on the right border.
