Tintin and the Blue Oranges (1964)
Original title: Tintin et les oranges bleues
Tintin and the Blue Oranges is a 1964 French-language adventure movie directed by Philippe Condroyer, with a running time of 1h 45m. It stars Jean-Pierre Talbot, Jean Bouise and Félix Fernández.
Professor Calculus's friend develops a blue-skinned orange that can grow on any kind of land and survive harsh weather (in the manner of Lue Gim Gong) and therefore solve world hunger. The Professor and his friends, however, run afoul of gangsters who also covet the fruit. The adventure takes them from their home in Marlinspike Hall (Moulinsart), a fictional mansion that is presumably in Belgium, to Spain, where Calculus and another scientist are kidnapped.
