LatestDuring the assassination attempt on King Alexander of Yugoslavia in Marseille, the king's valuable watch disappears. Herlock Sholmes is tasked with finding it. He quickly concludes that the watch was not lost but stolen by a pickpocket from Zagreb. He immediately travels to that city. On the Orient Express, he meets Arsène Lupin, who is also looking for the watch. From then on, a fair duel ensues between the two rivals. A matter of state? A matter of money? A former mistress of the King, opponents of the Yugoslav regime, a beautiful adventuress: so many adversaries who will allow Lupin and Holmes to measure their talents.
The Return of Arsène Lupin (1989) is a French crime television series consisting of 12 episodes, each approximately 55 minutes long, broadcast on FR3 between November 1989 and January 1990. It features the famous gentleman thief created by Maurice Leblanc, played here by François Dunoyer, in a more mischievous and modern interpretation than his predecessors, which retains the hero's refinement and intelligence while immersing him in stories with international overtones, with a more contemporary tone for the late 1980s.
