comment
Arsène Lupin is a 2004 French crime thriller film and an adaptation of the classic Arsène Lupin stories. It was directed by Jean-Paul Salomé and stars Romain Duris as Lupin, Kristin Scott Thomas as Joséphine Pellegrini-Balsamo, Pascal Greggory as Beaumagnan, and Eva Green as Clarisse de Dreux-Soubise. Its production values make it the most lavish Lupin adaptation to this day.The film follows Gentleman Thief Arsène Lupin from a small boy, through the death of his father, and his adult years when he meets a strange woman, Joséphine Pellegrini-Balsamo, who appears to be immortal and uses a hypnotic drug to enslave people to her will. Arsène's ethos is to steal from the rich and deserving crooks. He comes up against two parties, a secret society and Joséphine herself, who are intent on gathering three crucifixes which will reveal the secret of a lost treasure.The film does its best to incorporate a lot of Lupin lore, despite there being enough for a saga-with-the-final-movie-in-two-parts, but in a way where it steals bits and pieces of important plots from across the literary canon to weave into its focused narrative.Compare the 1932 American film of the same name.

High-Class Glass: Arsène puts a monocle on when checking the jewels the ladies wear at the party onboard the cruise ship. He loses it and puts it back on several times. His first notable action is saving a cruise ship waitress from being groped/sexually assaulted by her superior.

Costume Porn: Costume Designer Pierre-Jean Larroque created about five hundred different costumes, including twenty for Romain Duris and eighteen for Kristin Scott Thomas. He took his inspiration from Real Life historical figures such as the Countess of Greffuhle, Luisa Casati and Countess Virginia Oldoini of Castiglione.
