In this operetta, our boys get to try out a life of crime. They seem to think that you don't have to be very bright to be a thief. They try a con on a rich man, totally fail, and then are bailed out when a cop comes along There are lots of wonderful moments where the boys can show off their stuff, without worrying about the plot. Stan does some of his weird magic with his hands which astonishes Ollie. Ollie makes the mistake of saying he is Fra Diavolo, the master thief. Stan is instructed to hang him with comic results. Behind this is a plot of the adventurous criminal, a beautiful woman, and a theft of 500,000 Francs. Visually quite stunning period piece.
