Joe the Terrible (1955)

After one long month of methodical planning and complex preparations, the unscrupulous master burglar known only as the "Boss", comes up with an ambitious fail-proof plan to rob a haughty Russian aristocrat. Of all his hardened henchmen, the Boss decides to enlist the help of the inexperienced safe-breaker, Joe, and his friend, Gardelis, to get the job done; however, when they arrive at the lavish mansion, someone else has been already there first, emptying the strongbox of its valuables. Now, accused of a crime they didn't commit, the unfortunate thieves will find themselves caught up in the middle of an ingenious conspiracy, as the police, the rightful owner of the safe's contents, and the criminal kingpin will stop at nothing to shed light at this mysterious case, and, of course, unearth the loot. Can the first-time robber, Joe the Terrible, convince everyone of his tainted innocence?
