Tintin and the Secret of the Golden Fleece is a French feature film directed in 1961 by Jean-Jacques Vierne and written by André Barret and Rémo Forlani .
action
In the first live-action adaptation of Tintin to the comic adventures of Hergé accompany Tim and Tintin Captain Haddock to Istanbul . Haddock received a letter on the death of his old friend Temistocle Paparanic , who left him his ship, the "Golden Fleece". In Istanbul, Anton Karabine, a mysterious businessman, offers him 600,000,000 Turkish lira (in the film that equates to 20 million francs) to exchange the run-down boat for a seaworthy ship.
Tim and Haddock researched relatives of the paparanics to find out that he and his crew were in government for eight days after a coup in Tétaragua (fictional country in Latin America) and that he then fled with the treasure of the central bank. They manage to find a box on an island, but Karabine steals it and escapes by helicopter. When Karabine discovers that Tim has sneaked on board as a pilot, a brief scuffle ensues. Despite a defeat, Karabine manages to throw the box over the deep sea so that no one should get the treasure. But the treasure was hidden on board the ship itself. The railing , painted green, contained the valuable gold bars.

criticism
“One of Hergé's popular comic adventures became an entertaining real-life film that offers fun, cheerful and exciting entertainment. Photographed atmospherically coherently and with a love of detail, the film follows the very own logic of the comic strip, which leads to amusing improbabilities. "
