Istanbul is a 1957 American CinemaScope film noir crime film directed by Joseph Pevney, and starring Errol Flynn and Cornell Borchers. It is a remake of the film Singapore, with the location of the action moved to Turkey. The plot involves an American pilot who becomes mixed up with various criminal activities in Istanbul.

Production

The film was a remake of Singapore based on a script by Seton I. Miller. Universal considered Jeff Chandler to play "Jim Brennan" and Robert Middleton to play "Mr. Darius." Eventually, Errol Flynn was cast.

It was the first film Flynn had made in Hollywood since Against All Flags (1952), also at Universal. It had been a difficult few years for Flynn, incurring tax trouble with the IRS and debts due to his attempt at making The Story of William Tell

Flynn was paid a reported £150,000 for the film, taking a flat salary instead of a percentage. All the money Flynn earned went to the payment of his debts.

Flynn signed his contract on February 15, 1956, and filming began the following week. Some scenes were shot on location in Istanbul, Turkey.

Flynn later wrote "I thought the film was to be made in Turkey, but it turned out I must go back to Hollywood In the States, people who saw me again on the screen said I looked dissipated. Great! I was tired of being called beautiful, as they had called me when I was younger."
