RIP!
Don’t forget the chick that is/was married to Ringo Starr during her Bond movie.
It was a different time, when attractive meant looking elegant and sophisticated, instead of whorish.
She’s holding what appears to be a Walther P-38. That’s a pretty big cannon. Handled one a number of times. A buddy of mines father bought one back in 1945. Had the swastika eagle on it. Man, like I said, a big hand gun to be sure.
Honor Blackman. I say , quite a bit of the old alright, wot?
I thought Miss Johnson did quite well in a poorly thought-out, badly written, and unnecessary role. You must admit she was very cute, and her acting was far better than her lines.
Then again, I think George Lazenby was wooden, stiff, and stunk on ice when he played Bond, so there we are.
I remember being at the movie with my Mom and her friend when Miss Galore introduced herself. Mom and her friend laughed and laughed, but wouldn’t tell me why. It took years before I understood. LOL
Thanks for posting. Great pics, different times. Condolences to family and friends of Honor Blackman. R.I.P., love.
Denise Richards playing a nuke scientist has to be the all time worst casting for a Bond movie.....not counting that mess that’s about to be released.
I believe Connery pronounced it “Poo See”...

Oh, she was the hottest. A certain je ne sais quoi.
So many bad actresses in those roles. Denise Richards stands out (okay, very easy on the eye but...), Britt Ekland, a miscast Carey Lowell, and ... Halle Berry. But, I also really liked Sophie Marceau, even though she turned out to be a baddie.

I agree with you on Richards and Ekland...
But, I think Carey Lowell and Halle Berry were fine...
I think Carole Bouquet was fine...
Jill St John in Diamonds are Forever.

Her character name was “Christmas Jones”...
At the end of WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, she ends up in bed with Agent 007...
Bond tells her, “Christmas only comes once a year”...
Denise Richards was fine in WILD THINGS...
