Product Description

Synopsis
Light-hearted all-star story of an attempt to rob the impregnable Topkapi Palace Museum in Istanbul.

From the Back Cover
Trouble brews beneath the exotically curved towers of Istanbul when the equally exotic - and equally curved Elizabeth Lipp (Melina Mercouri) recruits her former lover (Maximilian Schell) in a scheme to heist the pride of the city's Topkapi museum: a jewel encrusted dagger. But the "job" soon turns into a high-tension, high-wire performance - literally - when the bumbling fall guy (Peter Ustinov) and other amateurs they've hired as help find they'll have to lift their prize while dangling from the museum's vaulted ceiling! A skillful blend of romance and comedy, "Topkapi" shimmers with hilarity, action and great performances. Fun-filled and suspenseful, it's an incredibly ingenious affair and a considerable pleasure to watch.
