Off the top of my head i forget which bond film was Sir Sean first appearance in the Gun Barrel scene.
Soon as Sir Sean appears you can't help but smile, I have left it way too long a time without watching these films.
Sir Sean's hidden tattoo is more obvious in this film than previously.
This is one of the Bond films that really benefited from the upscale over the years the picture looks great. there is a lot to be said for shooting in film.
Oh wait that never happened.
This is not the best film in the series though even DAF we won't see films like this made again.
This track sounds really good through my Dolby Atmos.
A couple of notes thus far:
If you pause at just the right moment ...... :D
I agree about the theme song. In fact, in many ways I prefer Bassey's DAF to GF. An unpopular opinion for sure, but over the years, I've come to that conclusion.
With Jill St. John and Lana Wood in the film, a cast reunion would be somewhat awkward (if the stories are true).
Anyway, enjoy the rest of the film. I may try to chin in after 10am,
DAF is not far behind GF likely on par, I guess I rate GF higher as it is the first of its kind the one that started it all.
I am only 9 minutes into the film as been pausing a lot i can restart later?
Ok mate enjoy the film noir always a great genre.
One thing did occur to me while watching it, however. The budget for "A Lady Without Passport" was about $1 million, or about the same amount as Dr. No 12 years later. Which only makes one appreciate just how well made those early Bond films were given their budgets.
@Dwayne I often think when a production team has too much money to spend they can get lazy, most of the great classics over the years were because of a tight budget and having to use ingenuity.
Bond was very lucky to have Ken Adam with DN, Ken's incredible sets always looked expensive.
