    Oh, the music post rack incident is missing from the score. That shot of Pat undressing must've been quite edgy back in '65.

    Connery has got quite a rug on that chest.

    There was a funny discussion recently on James Bond Radio on whether Bond should have a harry chest.
    I'd say yes, even though it's out of fashion these days.

    Fiona's a total babe. Such attitude. Luciana is like the female Connery.

    Great observation. She is his match.

    Their scenes together are insanely good.

    Sneaky Bond bit. Great score here as well.

    He's walking around in bare feet like Bruce Willis.

    Angelo is not a very bright renegotiator.

    The Switching the Body score is awesome. Love these kind of stealthy moments in the series.

    This score as Bond is prowling around is first class. Barry at his best.

    Could it be the front doorbell?

    Barry's music is like a magician pulling a trick. Melodies and accompaniment come and go with perfect judgment and there's always something interesting to listen to, that doesn't overstay its welcome. Works as underscore and music on its own.

    Good miniature work in this one.

    I don’t think Largo is particularly great in TB or NSNA, but I think I do prefer TB’s Largo.

    The plot takes a while to reach high gear but I love to see all the pieces come together.

    It's a marvelous score in general for this film, but particularly at Shrublands and as the Vulcan hits the ocean bed.

    Me too. It's a close call but Celi is a brute. Truly feels like a physical threat.

    Excellent choices for favorites. I agree. Hypnotic stuff.

    I love the wipes as the scenes change. Very old school.

    Just about everything is perfect for me thus far. Imagine B25 being this good. I’d be so thrilled!

    This movie has a really high ceiling for me when it comes to my next ranking.

    Any time James. Any place.

    She meant it.

    That would be great if B25 ended up this good.

    Someone’s probably lost a dog.

    Connery is just so naturally funny!

    This exchange between Bond and M regarding Nassau and Domino is superb. This is the sort of thing I miss. Subtle but oh so good.

    Nice touch at the meeting in the background with the transcribers.

    Connery's great as he tries to exit the awkward situation in the office.

    Can’t believe we’re already 45 minutes in. It just flies by so quick!
