    The shot of the three helicopters infront of the sunset! :x

    The Blofeld/Tracy scene is the heart of the film's subtext- snobbery. Blofeld very much wants to be a count, while Tracy very much does not want to be a countess (she wants to be Mrs Bond, James Bond).

    For more on that- https://www.ajb007.co.uk/topic/44307/subtext-and-themes/

    Blofelds seduction attempts are pathetic and it shows only that he plays in a different league than Tracy ( and Bond)

    He just comes over as a new-rich snob

    The use of the original "James Bond Theme" here was Hunt's decision, not Barry's.

    Love the formation flight to the building seen from inside

    It seems not to match somehow
    Barry knew netter!

    Do we know what Barry had in his sleeves instead?

    Higgins- "Battle At Piz Gloria" in full, not edited as in the film.

    Fun fact: snow is remarkably effective at stopping bullets, especially packed snow.
  • JTMJTM Posts: 3,027MI6 Agent
    How did that explosion not cause an avalanche?

    Can anyone imagine the toboggan fight between Connery and Donald Pleasence? :o

    It would have looked like 2 dumplings fighting over a ham

    Lazenby and Savalas are so well matched, hard to improve on that

    It depends a lot on the snow. Different types of snow density in clearly seperated layers equals high risk of avalanche

    I think Lazenby improvised that line

    No matter how many times I've seen this film, the ending hits hard.
  • HigginsHiggins GermanyPosts: 16,619MI6 Agent
    Lazenby played the wedding happiness so gracefully.
    Dalton would have wept.....more than once....

    This scene is so well-acted by Lazenby
  • HigginsHiggins GermanyPosts: 16,619MI6 Agent
    I was searching for the most beautiful Diana Rigg pic.

    It shows her in casual clothing on location Piz Gloria reading between 2 shots.

    Anyone has that pic handy?

    Lazenby carried off the final scene superbly.
