Probably lost film, 25 April 2003
Author: eva25at from Vienna, Austria

Angela Carfour (Lydia Kyasht) is engaged to the Vicomte de Beauvais (Ronald Colman) but in love with another man. "The black spider", a gentleman-thief is robbing the millionaires of Monte Carlo. The mischievous Angela plays a prank on her aunt by stealing her jewels. And now a hobby detective suspects her. But finally the real culprit is unmasked...

"The black spider" was Ronald Colman's last film before he emigrated to the United States. It was shot on location in Monte Carlo and the critics liked it. Sadly it shares the fate of all of Colman's british films : existing prints were probably destroyed during the 1941 London Blitz.
