Thought by many to be the inspiration for the TV series Mission: Impossible, Jules Dassin's comedy-thriller follows a group of art thieves as they plot and plan to rob a jewelled dagger from the fortress-like Topkapi Palace museum in sun-soaked Istanbul. With an international cast and a screenplay written by ex-Ealing stalwart Monja Danischewsky, Topkapi is one of the great comic-exotic heist movies. (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment)
