James Darren and Irene Papas's brother/ sister relationship here is quickly established, but the film does absolutely nothing else with that (except in some brief dialogue at the end when she asks Quinn how her brother died). In a different context, her slapping of James Darren is a bit like Paris Carver slapping Brosnan's face for walking out on her.
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.
The Germans running down the steps to see the team has fled is much like Blofeld and his men bursting open the barn doors to find Bond and Tracey have departed in OHMSS.
The actor playing Spiros Papadimos reminds me of Walter Koenig from STAR TREK.
I can't see James Darren without thinking of The Time Tunnel, a staple Irwin Allen series from my childhood like Lost in Space and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.

Hashtag Me T2!!! I loved all of those when I was a kid.
This folk tune - Yalo Yalo - is one that seems to be in my head an awful lot. I'm often heard whistling the melody. I assume it was written by Tiomkin.

Indeed, my dear Golrush007.
For which part he was in fact considered (early on).
And he did, in fact, turn up in STAR TREK about 30 years later as a lounge singer (James Darren was a pro singer, acting was a sideline).
Basically, yes.
Yes, very much so. This guy was a pop star, possibly cast to bring in the youth market. Thus his singing later on.

Singing 'The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins'?

In real life most of the team would be his age.
...and making a better job of it than Nimoy, I'd think.
That's true, but this is the movies. We have to accept that.
Morzeny!
General Gogol!
Oh, sorry. Will pause.
