#25. It's good in some parts but seems very non-descript (generic) in more. GoldenGun mentioned "some messy and chaotic action cues", and chaotic is how I'd describe several. See, for me, music from FYEO and SF have a lot more character! and desp…

That's a good question. Perhaps it could be assumed that, since Bond made such a mess of the embassy, they might've dusted for prints, got some, and tracked him to MI6? Or could the embassy use security video of his face to get a facial recognition…

Yes, but my martini's still dry.

Take this ranking for what it's worth. But I really enjoyed seeing some Bond photos on this page that I hadn't seen before. And Pierce, I hope that finger ain't loaded. https://www.newsweek.com/james-bond-movie-best-worst-critics-every-1606380

How about Andrea Anders? And the lovely Maud Adams (birth name Maud Solveig Christina Wikström) was 31 at the time of TMWTGG.

My #11. New Digs is a favorite cut. Voluntary Retirement is poignant, with its mournful and stately French horns. Severine is luxuriously sensual and exotic, likes its namesake. Brave New World is excellent. Modigliani is perfect for the visual…

Eyes. A little smaller. Uh-huh. Blue. A little grayer. That's it. You have it. Now, nose. A nose, not a banana, Q.

#17 for me. I think the music largely supports the film. During the PTS, the use of the "sleigh bells" in the track The Dam adds an interesting element. I like the soundtrack's contemporary sound and how Serra incorporated Bond themes. Ladies Fi…

In the FYEO PTS, in Roger's scenes in the helicopter, have you noticed that he seems to squint? Do you think that was just because it was really bright when they shot those scenes, and he's naturally squinting? I half wondered if they shot that af…

^^^ That is really nice TripAces. About 12 years ago I spent two weeks in Paris, a wonderful time. I went to the Musee d'Orsay and took many photos of the art, and here are two I like. Portrait of Irma Brunner by Manet, and Portrait of Jeanne de …

Did it at the same time! That's the effect Blackadder has on people.

Blackadder on Wales: "It's a ghastly place. Huge gangs of tough, sinewy men roam the Valleys, terrorizing people with their close-harmony singing. You need half a pint of phlegm in your throat just to pronounce the place names. Never ask for directi…

I had it at #15, and looking back it surprised me I put it that high, but so be it. The piece of music that always grabs me is part of the track The Eternal City, when Bond is driving in Rome and they show a wide view of the city; they use a chorus…

Birdleson, really good clues to a good character. I do enjoy the interplay between Columbo and Bond. And congrats R1s1ngs0n.

^^^ Agreed...great hearing about a connection between Fleming and Chandler...I didn't know that. Interesting to hear Fleming say villains were hard to put one's finger on, to write about. Interesting, Chandler: "You don't find anyone really that's…

She's clever. She's smarter than me. She knows how to hide.

I was the one who placed this at #20. That's because I find the music distinctive and seemed to suit what was on screen, because NSNA the film has its own unique style. You can say that several of the cues are jazzy, European, or whatever. But ev…

...Chloral hydrate!

Could it be Henry Gupta?

I did get one thing right.

Personally I think TSWLM is the quintessential Moore film, containing the greatest sum of the aspects and qualities that usually went into Moore films, to put it one way. However, I also think each Moore film has its own flavor and attractive attri…

My choice for a minor character spinoff would be Waiter at Chess Tournament in FRWL. You know he knows there's a message for Kronsteen on the paper coaster he put under his glass of water. We assume it's water, rather than gin, because there's no …
