60 of 231 · most liked firstThis bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.
unlabelledView post →From Russia With Love is such a funny movie. The Training School for Evil Henchmen is something that bond parodies wished they could do, but they can't, because they already did it as part of a real bond film

The film was on this weekend, and I spotted Lotte Lenya (one of my #31GreatWomenMusicians ) as Rosa Klebb.

unlabelledView post →watching From Russia With Love and the opening ten minutes are like a checklist of Bullshit You Can't Do In A Movie Anymore. the title sequence is a burlesque dancer jiggling her bosom while 007 is projected on her, then it's guys smoking indoors in a big tournament and then onscreen animal death

unlabelledView post →Rewatched the 2nd film From Russia With Love, and I did definitely enjoy it like before. Though seeing it directly after Dr. No was fascinating. Personally not my favorite, but I had fun watching it from start to finish. ☺️ #FromRussiawithLove #JamesBond Rating: Great

unlabelledView post →Watching From Russia with Love and the biggest indicator that this is a movie from a very different era isn't the playful Cold War shenanigans or the briefcase with all the hidden features, but that Bond wears a hat in the barrel sequence.

unlabelledView post →People forget this happened when Fleming was writing the original books. Bond died at the end of From Russia With Love. In Dr No, he got better (they even kept the conversation about him getting better in the film version of Dr No). Just do the same thing again.
unlabelledView post →5) No one says the title of the film, but Bond writes FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE over a photograph of Tatiana Romanova 6) Pedro Armendáriz (Kerim Bey) was terminally ill during filming & shot himself after the film wrapped 7) Red Grant escaped from Dartmoor Prison in 1960 8) Customised briefcase is GREAT

unlabelledView post →I hate when ppl put in meaningless foreign letters to make the word look like that language. I was just learning the Cyrillic alfabet when "From Russia With Love" came out in '64. The movie poster read "яussia" 'я' is pronounced 'Ya' in Cyrillic and alone means 'I.' It looks silly to Russians.

unlabelledView post →7. From Russia With Love (1963) It’s tough to compare a film like this to a lot of the other Bond films. It has a completely different blueprint. A great film from top to bottom. The Dr. Zhivago of Bond, but with suspense in place of romance.
unlabelledView post →1963's James Bond film "From Russia with Love" has a Soviet cipher machine they call "Lektor" as a plot vehicle, so here are a couple of our period 8x10"s. There's Sean Connery, but also Soviet cipher clerk (Diana Bianchi) and SPECTRE assassin (Robert Shaw) that co-starred in that film.
