From
Russia With Love
(1963)
VHS
The second James Bond is considered
by many fans to be the best of them all. Certainly Sean Connery was never
better as the dashing Agent 007, whose latest mission takes him to Istanbul
to retrieve a top-secret Russian decoding machine. His efforts are thwarted
when he gets romantically distracted by a sexy Russian double agent (Daniela
Bianchi), and is tracked by a lovely assassin (Lotte Lenya) with switchblade
shoes, and by a crazed killer (Robert Shaw), who clashes with Bond during
the film's dazzling climax aboard the Orient Express. |

Goldfinger
(1964) DVD
Only Sean Connery can believably
seduce women so effortlessly, kill with almost as much ease, and then pull
another bottle of Dom Perignon '53 out of the fridge. Goldfinger contains
many of the most memorable scenes in the Bond series: gorgeous Shirley
Eaton (as Jill Masterson) coated in gold paint by evil Auric Goldfinger
and deposited in Bond's bed; silent Oddjob, flipping a razor-sharp derby
like a Frisbee to sever heads; our hero spread-eagle on a table while a
laser beam moves threateningly toward his crotch.
