According to Wikipedia, it is :

Maurice Binder used a pinhole camera for that shot.
I'm finding it difficult to attribute this to anything other than sloppy film-making.
Are the two examples I've given the only times his name is spoken in the film?
Which government is that? Japan (because it takes place there)?
Today, it could be the North Koreans. ;)
@mirandafrost, if Russians and Americans start a war, presumably a nuclear one, China will be released from the economical grip of two competing superpowers. If both your neighbours run the show in your street, but suddenly they start fighting, that fight will leave them both weaker, partially or totally destroyed, and you get to rise fast to complete domination.
It's also the reason, I think, the Chinese general agrees to work with Carver in TND. If the UK and China battle it out, Carver gets his spectacle and that general may arrange some power shifts on the political stage.
Why in a train from ¿London? to Montenegro, the waiter would speak in Spanish!!??
"¿Un pliego, señor?" (American Spanish, by the way)
(Sorry if the video is not allowed)
I have no idea. Was it a train from Spain perhaps... if that makes sense? (probably a bit easy - I know ;-))
Even if the supporting actor was Spanish, I doubt they would let him say the lines in his own language. It really is odd!
I generally agree with these sentiments. Bliss wasn't written very well; her Moneypenny came off as clueless and wimpy. Samantha Bond fared better as a sparring partner for Bond but, ugh, the smutty lines they gave her really made me cringe.
For two very good reasons that Bond learned from a very wise man.
1) He never let's them see him bleed.
2) He always has an escape plan.
I know I'm responding to an old comment but I couldn't help myself. Especially with the 15th anniversary of the late great Desmond Llewelyn's death coming up. His last words were appropriate for Bond.
Bluray of YOLT, did I notice the hair on Blofeld on first meeting 007
Over the top of the chair. I think the only bit of Jan Wrech to make it
On screen. :)
Anthony Dawson could have been just about anybody when he was playing Blofeld, since you didn't see his face and you didn't even hear his voice. So there's no reason to bring Dawson back any more than to use a different actor.
are there any interviews or statements from the earlier movies/Cold War movies why they changed the storyline or the origin of the villains? In many novels (nearly all I think) the Soviets are the baddies (SMERSH) but in the movies they aren't. Why? Was there an intention of the producers/directors/screenwriters?
