If you are talking of a current "Orient Express", connecting Western Europe (such as Paris or Wien) with Istanbul, you can forget it. I think the closest is a Couchette car running between Budapest and Istanbul. The host trains for this car are operated either with electric or diesel.

If you are talking of the VSOE (from which (I think) they used the cars for the movie), it is all electric operation between Calais and Venezia or Wien (or whatever eastern end point that particular trip is).
