During the backgammon scene with Bond and Kamal Khan, Magda tips off Bond that the dice are dodgy. Its quite blink and you’ll miss it, but it confirms Bond suspicion the dice are loaded.
Very nice. Makes me like her even more.
I think part of what helps hide it is that when we cut back to Bond, he's not looking at her anymore. Almost looks like he missed the clue as well.
What sharp little eyes you have 😉
Wait till you get to my arse
Great spot!
Well spotted indeed! I must say I'd never spotted that that's what Magda was doing in that scene. Bond must've charmed her right from the start then!
Wayborn is frankly godawful. She keeps 'checking' herself in the dinner scene, tilting her head back before speaking.
Her dialogue is frequently dubbed, too.
"Godawful" is a bit severe I think. Sure, she's not Katharine Hepburn or Monica Vitti but she isn't the worst actress either. She was a good fit for what the role required :)
She's terrible, man, but I'd let her off just for her smile. Helps to intrigue her.
YOU think she's terrible, fair enough. That's how you see it. I respect that, but that doesn't mean it's a fact though.
Now, it seems this thread has been derailed for quite some time, so let me attempt to get it back on topic. Here's something I never noticed before: in FYEO's 2CV chase we're supposed to be in Spain, yet the locals right after the chase, in the olive grove, speak Italian.
Interesting, I didn’t know that either. I wonder if the last name also started with an M since we have Mansfield and (Miles) Messervy.
I think it did. I just can't remember what he said the name was. It's one of his last couple videos though. All about the casting of M
Yup. And the whole thing was filmed in Greece, on the island of Corfu, to be exact. Although I think that at least the bus that was stuck in the village had "Spanish" licence plates.
Sorry if that offends anyone. But the thread had become completely derailed from its actual intent.
Really? I thought the chase was filmed in Italy, given the locals speak Italian. Maybe they took some Italian extras from Cortina to Corfu ;)
You're quite right about the licence plates, the baddie Peugeots also have Spanish ones, so they got that right. And the bus seems to go to Madrid too, which is a bit funny because for such a major city buses would probably indicate where exactly in Madrid they would take you :p
I didn't actually question another's intelligence, just their agenda. If that is the former for you, that's not an unfair assessment and I apologise.
The 'peter' character just didn't like being called out on their own process, and retorted with a variety of insults. That's poor form.
I did my best to abjure their polemics and get the conversation juiced again.
Here we are.
King says her name in TWINE, doesn't he?
Dench's M in TND is her best work - razor sharp wit.
Though it's the same actor (with good reason), I've always seen her Brosnan and Craig era M's as two separate people.
Like the rest of the crew, she's overused, but that doesn't detract from her performance. She, Craig and Bardem are excellent in SF, working so well with so much so so.
