Yesterday while playing the soundtrack cd on the hifi I insisted on listening to this music on high volume, possibly concerning for my wife and neighbours.
Surprisingly, Connery is on record as declaring himself an avowed Carry On fan. He really loved what they did - and all comedy fans know that they're just brilliant at making silk from a sow's ear, there's a real intelligence and timing to the laughs.
In a fictional drama about the affair between Barbara Windsor and Sid James, in one memorable scene set at Pinewood lookalikes of Connery in a tux, Eaton in Gold paint and Oddjob are shown in the background.

) ) As long as you don't wake up in a box tomorrow morning with the music playing in the background...
It's a shame that the funny Sammy Davies Jr bit hit the cutting room floor. I love SDJ's Mankiewicz line about Bond: "There's no cake big enough to put him on top of!"
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

Connery was good friends with Sid James who he starred with in a pre-Bond film
Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Lana Wood as Plenty O'Toole...as a child she appeared in one of my all time favourite films The Searchers as Debbie. Her older sister Natalie played the more grown up Debbie at the end of the film.
A plot weakness in the film is the way bits were cut out which explained how Plenty ended up at Tiffany's apartment later, only to be killed. But who cares about the plot hole? Not the original audience, for sure... it's all excellent fun!

I love the witty charade played out between Slumber and Bond... comically irreverent
Connery is playing this script as an expert comedian. He's as talented at this style of acting as with the more brutal stuff.

Paste!
DAF has some excellent lines and Connery delivers them very well.
