As Corinne leaves the room, don't cut to the wide as she goes out the door. Unless you have a second wide with Bond in the foreground as she leaves. The wide you have there is a bit empty, whereas the close up holds on your actress' face which is much more interesting, I think.
That aside, nicely done.
I purposely had Corrine say "thank you" more exclusively here in this scene because I wanted to emphasize her outcome towards Bond's action as part of the solace he finds in confronting Yusef. I'll see if a wide can be incorporated for Bond similar to the film.
Since I'm producer, I'll also have an improved scene from where Bond talks to M at the end should we all get back together to re-film.
Just out of curiosity will you open a new thread with each new attempt??
Please don't. ;)
Anyway, cool job.
Thanks bro.
QoS really does have some superb scenes, and this is one of my favourite.
Thank you.
Thanks Dragonpol!
My pleasure.
In my version, Vesper is Asian as given by the necklace.
the set pieces were not Yusefy enough for me, sorry. Good editing for the most part, we have a modern day Peter Hunt on our hands.
Thank you. One of them reenacted a scene from QoS which I saw and offered to direct this scene. It's great to see a lot of people liking QoS' drama. I searched for the actors who wanted some experience with help.
@Ytterbium, Bond was more at ease when Corrine says "Thank you" as he has stopped a honey-trapping with Mr. White from happening.
Actually there should be a reenactment of the following scene. You're right. Even if it's summer, I'll use fake snow in the background. Let's see if I'm not compelled by incorporating more original elements too.
I was thinking about filming Mathis' last scene but with a different song. I'd have the song edited below to begin at the pickup part that sings "bury me, bury me, bury me deep"...like a memorial to Mathis but the Vesper theme is always good to hear. It'd be a cool song to play in DC's last Bond film whenever that time comes.

You should try some sort of tribute to your favorite part in the series. It can be through any avenue of art (like drawings etc...). What would you do?
Think of the 8-year gap between the Fast and the Furious and its true sequels which tied up loose ends better. The franchise got popular not because of the first two unrelated sequels which were carelessly made but because of the continuation of story about the friendship between the anti-hero and protagonist.
Or like the movie Point Break...the villain died at the end although ambiguous, but since the actor who portrayed him died in real life, the only option was to remake the movie if the possibility of continuing the story was ever going to come to fruition.
SO this scene recreated speaks many volumes. Just producing it was helping me come to acceptance of the fact that things weren't going to be the same way again and that I'd have to deal with it. My actors really knew what they were doing. Funny how there was a promotional billboard for Skyfall overhead the building we used for filming.
Here's the door. Unfortunately, Bond got so mad at Yusef by the time that the guards came to take him away that the door was deemed useless. Now it's in a dump but it's made it here. Better late then never. Here you go...Maybe it's being used by Mr. White where he's hiding in the SP teaser but that's not confirmed, so we won't go there.

I recently stayed at a hotel that reminded me a lot of Quantum of Solace. The bathroom in particular reminded me of QOS. Check out the grey/silver/black and white style of a "modern look at post-modernism" as Marc Forster would describe. The room doesn't come with an oily Strawberry Fields.
