Algiers

This Hollywood remake of the French film Pepe le Moko features Charles Boyer as the master criminal hiding out in The Casbah. Pepe's nemesis, French police inspector Slimane, waits patiently for Pepe to make one wrong move. When Pepe falls head over heels in love with the beautiful tourist Gaby (Hedy Lamarr, in her first American film), he becomes too preoccupied to keep up his guard against the relentless inspector. An intriguing chain of events, including his betrayal by the woman (Sigrid Gurie) he scorned in favor of Gaby, conspire to create Pepe's heart-rending downfall. The dramatic ending is legendary, and the mysterious, murky Casbah is a perfect backdrop for this riveting tale of love, passion and greed.

Angel on My Shoulder

The devilish comedy/fantasy Angel On My Shoulder teams two Academy Award? winners Paul Muni (1936 Best Actor, The Story of Louis Pasteur) and Anne Baxter (1946 Best Supporting Actress, The Razor's Edge), with the remarkable character actor, Claude Rains. Muni portrays Eddie Kagle, a recently murdered gangster whose attempts at "busting out" of hell and returning to the world of the living bring him to the attention of Nick (Claude Rains) - the Devil himself. Eddie makes a deal with Nick: the devil will send him back to earth to take over the body of a respected judge who is trying to stamp out evil. If, as the judge, Eddie can become more dishonest and help keep more of those doing the devil's work roaming the earth, Nick will set him free for good. But Eddie soon discovers that he can't return to his corrupt ways, and when he falls in love with the judge's fiance (Anne Baxter), he tries to break his deal with the devil.
