Tintin and the Golden Fleece
Tintin and the Golden Fleece (in the original French, Tintin et le mystère de la toison d'or, meaning Tintin and the Mystery of the Golden Fleece) is a film first released in France on 6 December 1961. Featuring characters from The Adventures of Tintin comic book series written and drawn by the Belgian writer-artist Hergé, it was a live-action film with actors made-up to look like the characters and featured an original storyline not based on any of the books.
Plot
Captain Haddock learns that an old shipmate, Paparanic, has died and left him a strange ship, the Golden Fleece. Tintin, Snowy and the Captain travel to Istanbul only to find it's an old cargo ship in a dilapidated state. On board, they meet the ship's cook Clodion, and Paparanic's pet parrot Romulus. A businessman named Anton Karabine arrives and says he is an old friend of the Captain's shipmate. He offers them a "sentimental" price for the ship. And they give Captain Haddock fifteen days to think it over.
