The Crab with the Golden Claws (film)

The Crab with the Golden Claws French Le crabe aux pinces dor is a 1947 Belgian stop motion feature film produced by Wilfried Bouchery for Films Claude Misonne and based on the comic book of the same name from The Adventures of Tintin by Herg. This was the first Tintin story to be adapted into a movie and follows the story of the comic almost exactly.

Tintin finds himself involved in a mystery of a drowned man, a regular tin of crab meat, and the name of a ship called the Karaboudjan. Upon investigating the ship, Tintin discovers that the shipment of tin cans contains not crab meat, but drugs. After learning about the ships shady business, Tintin ends up becoming prisoner on the ship which already casted off from the port. The only way for Tintin to escape is by heading for dry land by life boat, and the only person to aid him is the ships beer guzzling Captain named Haddock who is the only one on board not aware that his crew is trafficking drugs right under his nose.
