directed by Jules Dassin
featuring Melina Mercouri, Peter Ustinov, Maximilian Schell, Robert Morley, Akim Tamiroff

After years of enduring movie lampoons of his 1955 crime-caper classic Rififi, director Jules Dassin topped them all with his own spoof, Topkapi.

Stella (1955) more movies like this

directed by Michael Cacoyannis
featuring Melina Mercouri, Aiekos Alexandrikis, Sophia Vembo
