Makes you forget Spielberg's adaptation
26 August 2021
Though the movie done by Steven Spielberg has some qualities, this movie rely on no special effects nor actors being overdrawn after motion caption.

Done in 1961 (and a sequel later in 1964), Tintin and Haddock are going to Turkey to reclaim a ship left by a late acquaintance of the Captain. However, as a suspicious businessman who was a friend of the deceased want to buy the ship at a ridiculous price, it is a start for an adventure that goes to the Greek countryside in order to find what's so mysterious about this ship. And find out on the way that the late captain was not as clean as it appears.

Just watch it for fun and excitement. This was nicely photographed and the duo of Jean-Pierre Talbot (Tintin) and Georges Wilson (Haddock, and also he is actor Lambert Wilson's father) are delightful to see.

And this was done for real, no animation involved.
