Peter Ustinov is good as the reluctant spy--and nearly as reluctant jewel thief--but the rest of the cast is pretty unappealing and the film is at least 20 minutes too long. The excellent heist sequence makes up for a lot but, on the whole, "Topkapi" isn't as much fun as it ought to be. The ending confused me the first time I saw it because I thought they'd deliberately let the bird loose in the museum to set off the alarm system, then raced down to the police station to create an alibi. Shows how thick I am! I couldn't understand a single word Akim Tamiroff said in this movie.

Not-so-interesting setup leads into crackerjack heist sequence done in total silence -- a clear inspiration for Tom Cruise breaking into the vault in "M:I." Speaking of which, this film was also a clear inspiration for the "Mission: Impossible" television series, which happens to be my favorite show of all time. Peter Ustinov won Oscar for comic-relief supporting role.

A comic jewer heist in Europe might suggest The Pink Panther, indeed this film came out around the same time but it stands apart in its genre with Peter Ustinov on fine form once again, but when is he not?

The movie that inspired my childhood neighbor "Murf the Surf:" "The Star of India, a golfball-sized gem which legend says was formed in the earth by sparks from the Star of Bethlehem was the most famous star sapphire in the world. It was stolen from the American Museum of Natural History on a rainy October night in 1964. The boldness of the theft impressed even the police. Jack âMurf the Surfâ? Murphy, who was 27 at the time, and another man, Allen Kuhn, had just seen the Jules Dassin film âTopkapiâ? which detailed the theft of a priceless gem from an Istanbul museum. According to published reports, the athletic Murf dangled from a 125-foot rope and swung onto a fifth floor window ledge that led to the gem room of the museum. Murphy waited until the night watchmanâ(TM)s flashlight disappeared then entered the museum through an unlocked window. He used the sound of a plane passing overhead to drown out the noise of breaking into the glass jewel case. After stuffing several gems in his pocket, he went down to Times Square and grabbed a drink at a local bar.

Excellent performances by Ustinov and Morley without whom the movie would have been much the poorer.
