I'm not sure why it doesn't work, but the following does:
set theFolder to choose folder
tell application "Finder"
set theFiles to every file of theFolder
end tell
repeat with aFile in theFiles
set aFile to aFile as alias
set fileInfo to info for aFile
end repeat
The only part of the script that needs to reference the finder is "every
file of"; also, if Choose Folder is inside the Tell Finder wrapper, the
script forces you to make the Finder frontmost, so I made changes for
that as well.
