A fun movie from the 60's is "Topkapi".  It is about stealing an emerald
from the Topkopi Palace Museum I think.

I'm teaching an "Introduction to Museum Studies" course next year.  I
plan to
examine popular images of museums by having students read novels and/or
watch
films that are about, or set in, museums.  Any suggested titles?

Thanks!
