    Paluzzi totally owns that scene

    I remember in an interview she said she loved playing a ‘bad girl’ she all but dances through her scenes with a glee that Famke Jansen and Sophie Marceau will later emulate to the full!

    Was Palmeria built for the film, or just dressed for thE location scenes?
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    Paula should have got into one of her FRWL girl fights with Luciana. That I'd have loved to have seen.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    It was somebody's place. If memory serves, the wife gets a cameo at the Kiss Kiss Club soon.

    Have you seen Benicio del Toro in LTK?
    Vargas is the most boring hencman before Elvis came along.

    Hey TB2, did you hear the Rum Collins reference?

    I did indeed and your second one is on the bar, next to Holly.

    Diane Hartford. Her husband owned most of the island.
    She can be seen in CR again!
    President of the 'Misty Eyes Club'.
    Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!

    Yes, isn't she the girl on whose dance Fiona cuts in? She also appears as an extra in Craig's CR, in one of the Bahamas scenes.

    Yes, that's her. And thanks Higgins.

    Music “For King and Country”

    One of my utter all-time favourite Bond scenes. Bond disturbs Fiona in her bath. He gives her shoes...

    Benicio is a far better, more dangerous henchman, but the asexual Vargas has an unsettling whiff of unspecified perversion about him which makes him creepier imho.

    Why King and Country?
    Her Majesty The Queen had been on the throne over a decade by this point?

    James gets wounded! (He soon recovers)

    Fiona tries to hit Bond where it hurts. It doesn't work. He's too cool.

    Music “Street Chase” Uses part of “007”
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 37,866Chief of Staff
    This scene influences scenes in later Bond films, most notably MR

    I disagree.

    He escapes by sheer luck.

    John Barry plays around with '007' in new arrangements for the chase scene (and later in the underwater battle)
