Lupin the 3rd - The Secret of Twilight Gemini
Editorial Review:
Product Description
Legend has it that the Twilight diamond is the key to a Moroccan treasure of immeasurable value. So when the international thief Lupin is given the Twilight in an act of faith, it's off to Morocco!
But what started out as a simple in and out job turns into chaos the moment Lupin steps off the train! Fighting factions, masked assassins, secret underground sects, a whip-yielding psychopath, corrupt cops, and the always determined Inspector Zenigata... they're all after Lupin. And they won't stop until he's caught or killed.
Join Lupin, Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon in another rousing adventure where nothing is what it seems to be... and the treasure is always just around the corner.

Originally broadcast in 1996, Twilight Gemini was the ninth installment in the series of made-for-TV movies starring manga artist Monkey Punch's master thief. Mafia don Dolune gives Lupin half of a diamond known as the Twilight: when the two halves are brought together, they form the key to a fabulous treasure. Lupin heads for Morocco to find the long-lost loot and is attacked by masked assassins, a whip-wielding transvestite, and the inevitable Inspector Zenigata and his inept Interpol henchmen. No one expects a Lupin film to make too much sense, but this flimsy tale is both underwritten and badly paced. The chase scenes generate little excitement, and the fights lack panache. Although Lupin III remains one of the most durable franchises in anime history, Twilight Gemini ranks among the lesser works in the canon. Unrated; suitable for ages 15 and u p: Nudity, violence, sexual situations, tobacco use. --Charles Solomon
