About Alias French Gertie
A safecracker poses as a French maid in order to gain access to wealthy homes. In the midst of a nocturnal search for a cache of valuables, she is interrupted by another safecracker. Narrowly escaping arrest, they decide to pool their talents, but she gets the urge to reform and encourages him to do the same.
Directed by George Archainbaud, Alias French Gertie leans on a strong ensemble — Bebe Daniels, Ben Lyon, Robert Emmett O'Connor — 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 crime titles of 1930.
