00:00Istanbul, Constantinople of old, the pearl of the Middle East, the jewel of the Dardanelles.

00:13Istanbul, the mosques, the ancient streets, the ramparts, the bazaars, the wrestlers, the dancers,

00:28the fabled roofs that look over the magic bosphorus, these extraordinary roofs where never the infidel is placed foot, where...

00:36Melina!

00:37Hello.

00:38Melina Mercuri! What are you doing here?

00:41I have an appointment.

00:43Here, on these rooftops?

00:45Yes.

00:46For whom may I ask?

00:47With Peter Rustinus, Maximilian Schell, and Robert Morley.

00:53To do what?

00:55There's a world of meaning in that, ha-ha.

01:00At least tell me, why Istanbul?

01:02Because in Istanbul, there is the Topkapi.

01:06Topkapi?

01:08Topkapi?

01:09Where the Sultan's harems were?

01:11Better.

01:12Topkapi where the treasure room is.

01:16And in the treasure room, there is a glass case.

01:21And in the glass case, there is a sultan.

01:24And on the sultan, there is a dagger.

01:26And on the dagger, there are...

01:28There are the four most beautiful emeralds on Earth.

01:33The Topkapi emeralds.

01:36But they won't be there for much longer, I hope.

01:40You're not thinking of, uh...

01:42I can't think of anything else.

01:44Topkapi is an impregnable fortress.

01:47Those emeralds are watched day and night.

01:51In Topkapi...

01:53There are guards.

01:55Policemen.

01:56The lighthouse.

01:58Roadblocks.

02:01Constant control.

02:03Third degree.

02:06And above all, an alarm system so sensitive...

02:10It's foolproof.

02:15No.

02:16It's impossible.

02:18Can be done.

02:20That's the way it can be done.

02:23But how?

02:24By ruse.

02:26By humor.

02:29By violence.

02:32By laughter.

02:36By intelligence.

02:40My skill.

02:43By...

02:45By love.

02:47They are all means to the end.

02:50And believe me...

02:52We use them all.

02:54That will be the robbery of the century.

02:57The robbery conceived.

03:00Planned.

03:01Organized.

03:02Prepared.

03:03Rehearsed.

03:04Calculated.

03:05Timed to the split second.

03:07And directed by the master of thieves.

03:11By the master of thieves.

03:24I am a thief.

03:26Honest.

03:27Be there on time.

03:28We'd hate to stop without you.

03:42Be there on time.

03:43We'd hate to stop without you.

03:46Do it now too.

03:48I'm beginning to stop without you.

03:50This has been done, but it has sounded right...

03:51Today the last one is new at the Capuy.

03:54We'll do it later.
