On the contrary I find the violence quite visceral and nasty in DAF.
I'd rather go with Goldfinger or Golden Gun... although the latter one has Moore beating up Maud Adams, a scene that is strikingly out of place in such a lightharted film.
The headshot in the train....
Fleming, we learn, was a violent sadomasochist. He drank too much, cheated on his wife and liked Slapping Women.
And yet we love him.
Precisely.
Not to mention he would occasionally drive through yellow lights.
Well, the car-kick is pretty brutal..
I'm not too sure. It did give me violent urges...
Gonzales' own death is pretty sudden. A crossbow bolt to the back just as he's diving into the pool.
DAF is my choice then I guess.
Goldfinger is my choice for least violent. After the fight with Capungo in the PTS, there isn't much to get worked up over. Most of what violence there is in the film is pretty comic-booky: Goldfinger waving his arms while being sucked out the jet window, gold bricks bouncing off Oddjob's chest before he's electrocuted in a shower of sparks, Kisch hollering and flipping mid-air as he's thrown from the top of Fort Knox. Not to put down any of this stuff. It's all lots of fun, just not particularly violent. Even when Tilly gets knocked down by Oddjob's supposedly razor-brimmed hat, she's perfectly intact, not a mark on her body. And her sister dies rather non-violently by suffocation of the skin. Even when Solo gets shot it's in a very calm and non-violent way; the shot is even silenced so as to diminish the effect!
Oh, and Goldfinger snaps a pencil at one point. So, I guess there's that. ;)
I think you're right.
