Triumph of Michael Strogoff borrows its title and main characters from a famous Jules Verne adventure novel. This, however, is where the resemblance between the two properties comes to an end. Curt Jurgens stars as Strogoff, a Russian espionage agent engaged in the war against the Turks. Instead of delivering valuable secret papers (as in the novel), Strogoff takes time out to go to the aid of a young prince. The lovely Capucine co-stars in this sprawling French production. —Worldscinema.com
