About The Theft of the Mona Lisa
A painter working at the Louvre is struck by the Mona Lisa. When he meets a girl whom he believes bears a resemblance to the painting, and who wants him to become famous, he comes up with the idea of stealing the painting. Based on the real-life theft of 1911.
Directed by Géza von Bolváry, The Theft of the Mona Lisa leans on a strong ensemble — Trude von Molo, Willi Forst, Gustaf Gründgens — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1931.
