Casbah (1948) is a musical film directed by John Berry, starring Yvonne DeCarlo and Tony Martin, and released by Universal Studios.
Casbah tells the story about a bad boy (Tony Martin who plays Pepe Le Moko) who meets a beautiful girl (Marta Toren who plays Gaby). The girl has scruples and rejects the Pepe because of his criminal activities (he’s a crime lord in the Casbah). She rejects Pepe because of who he is, with the hint that if he reforms, he might have a chance with her.
Believing he will not reform, she leaves the Casbah to catch a plane to leave Morocco forever. His love for her changes him and he sacrifices the safety of the Casbah and his network of associates, who have too much power for the authorities within the Casbah to apprehend him.
As a consequence when he leaves the Casbah he is shot and apprehended by the authorities. As he lies wounded possibly fatally, there is a poignant last scene where Gaby is seen in the window of the plane but fails to look outside where Pepe pleadingly looks in vain to her for a single glance.
