Argel was released in the year 1938。Argel is also called as Algiers, Pligomenos aetos, Casbahin vanki, Casbah, Argélia, Americana nella casbah, Algier。

Pepe Le Moko, a thief who escaped from France with a fortune in jewels, has for two years lived in, and virtually ruled, the mazelike, impenetrable Casbah, "native quarter" of Algiers. A French official insists that he be captured, but sly Inspector Slimane knows he need only bide his time. The suave Pepe increasingly regards his stronghold as also his prison, especially when he meets beautiful Parisian visitor Gaby, who reminds him of the boulevards to which he dare not return...and arouses the mad jealousy of Ines, his Algerian mistress.

Argel actors and actresses include Hedy Lamarr。
