The views of St. Petersburg alone are reason enough to watch this movie. It is about a gang of petty criminals, who are dexterous at pick-pocketing and ice skating, where one of them becomes involved with a girl from the aristocracy. A predictable story about the other suitor being a count, the father not allowing the talented daughter to study and the daughter finding ways to escape from this all. Nevertheless it is fun to watch. The actors are good, the cinematography is eye catching and the film does not become boring despite it's predictability.
