Pepe le Moko is a wanted jewel thief. He resides in the Casbah of Algiers. He doesn´t want to leave the Casbah, but Gaby might change his mind about that. She is a young, beautiful, engaged and French woman. While the police force tries to catch Pepe, he is drawn closer to Gaby.
I have one question about Pepe. Is he supposed to be a criminal? I can´t see or feel a large amount of violence in his life. And there could have been many more threats in this movie. And I also missed more romance and passion in "Algiers". I even forgot the title of this movie. It happened just a few days after watching it. Will I recommend this movie? No. Will I watch it again? No. Do I want to watch "Pépé le Moko" (1937)? Probably not.
