Coming up soon is a very quick scene that I'd like to anticipate- is Ian Fleming standing by the side of the track or not? Opinions vary. It's a bit away yet.
Bond very 'assertive' with Tania in the context of their mock newly-weds relationship... even before he eventually turns on her (after Kerim's death). Yet she adores him. Quite sinister, in a way. At best, hints of a potential sub/dom dynamic... At worst, hinting at a domestic abuse-inflected patriarchal structure... Bond never looked or felt more 'dangerous' than in this film.
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

I think the figure by the train is a sheep farmer and not Fleming.
Compare the outfit to what the man by the train is wearing
I know of the photo, but his skin colour, body shape, shape of the crutch (and it looks like he has two crutches) and the fact that neither Fleming or the crew ever confirmed it ….

Oh, I don't know...
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
Ooops

I'm a bit behind you.
Lots to think about in that.

I‘ve seen the sheppard and imo he‘s too short and too skinny for Fleming

Too short, maybe, but he looks bulkier than Fleming if anything
Yes, a highlight of the movie.
