And here’s the right fetching Serena Scott Thomas (less well-known, perhaps, than her more famous sister but pretty picturesque in her own royal right).



as (geez, are you ready for this?) Dr. Molly Warmflash.



What we particularly found impressive favor with where she’s concerned is her igniting intelligence in addition to her more obvious attractive attributes.



Plus a sorta subtly sly humor belying



(but not detracting from) her beauty.



All in all, we’d rate her rather highly all the way around smile

At last, we come to



ravishing Sophie Marceau,



our choice for Favorite Villainess Number Two as Elektra King.



Mind you, they knew they needed an actress who could bring off this character in all her mysterious
complexity - which we feel Ms. Marceau did decisively. Whether it was authoritatively standing up to Judi Dench’s imposing M or indulging in some luxuriously coquettish



(not to mention) lethal torture, she and Luciana’s sublime Fiona could’ve had the same generational genes for creating chaos (and no, we didn’t see the twist that arrives when she reveals the extent of her ingenious deceptions).



Effortlessly contemporary in her essence,



upright gorgeous, with an anchored appeal that’s both alluring and attractive,



she’s far and away our favorite of the Brosnan era

Sad to report that Julie Ege, who was one of Blofeld's allergy patients in OHMSS (Scandinavian Girl), and who then starred in several Hammer movies, passed away on April 29 at age 64 of breast cancer.

Ravishing Sophie Marceau sounds good to me. Sophie's my choice (heh) for BG1, with Akiko presently at BG2 and Sue Vanner at BG3, despite the paucity of her role.

Lest We Forget in Belated Tribute Department:



Thanks (this is getting to be residual considering HooRaq’s remarkable photographic memory) for the recent unfortunate news item.

Sad to report that Julie Ege,



who was one of Blofeld's allergy patients in OHMSS (Scandinavian Girl),




… passed away on April 29 at age 64 of breast cancer.



When we first posted the below lobby card in the OHMSS Bondstallment, a thoroughly intriqued JaSe inquired “Who is that?” Alas, we answered in a somewhat smart-ass manner but we’ve since discovered the answer to his question was and is



R.I.P. Dear Lady

On a lighter note, I wish there were more pictures of Tanya Roberts in this gown.



Anybody? Please?

Memo to Zap from Ms. Roberts' Trinity of Unofficial Bondage Agents:

Dunno about that exact outfit and, hey, we know it's hard but be patient, effendi. wink



Roger's reign is comin' up right after we bid a final farewell to Pierce, our current subject under visually appreciative scope ... smile

The DVD cap feature that I use for the numerous TV Yum threads could be put into effect for this at some point.

Thanks, Eric! I hope you do that. I have a feeling she looks pretty good. There's something about a black dress. Barbara Bach looked good in hers, if you recall.

Rachel Grant’s turn as Peaceful (Heart’s Desire?)



was appropriately eye-catching, generally speaking.



Grant-ed (sorry, some quips are impossible to resist, Q),



her vampish oriental get-up does get the alluring job done to desired effect.



And she’s certainly not lacking



in essential visual vitamins, either,


no? ... smile

Having watched Goldfinger again, I'm reminded all over again how amazing Shirley Eaton's "bedroom eyes" were when she was wearing Bond's pajama top...

I will finally be obliging on this sometime late tonight or tomorrow at long last.

And yes, Barbara looked great in hers though Caroline Munro always gets my vote for best Bond girl in SWLM. Too bad she didn't have more screen time!

Thank you! I'll be standing by. Tanya looks so sweet in the one pic I have. Regarding Munro, I like the little scene at the boat dock, where Bach is jealous of her. smile

Here you go Zap. There aren't a lot of great camera angles of her in this one.

This explains why I can't remember what the whole costume looked like -- they never showed it. I'll bet the director decided the scene slowed the movie down and he cut parts of it.

Still, nice work, Eric. What a doll. It will come as no great shock that I'm saving these images. I think everyone appreciates the contribution you're making to our personal files.

My pleasure, Zap. smile I like to think these files in the various threads offer a nice reminder of a time when the women of film and TV (my personal cutoff point being the mid-80s) just knew how to offer a greater sense of beauty, style and class that just seems all but non-existent on many levels today.

I think there might have been a couple shots of her where even seated you could glimpse a bit more of the outfit but one part of the problem when doing caps is that if the person is in motion, you can often catch a blurred image or worse if they're in the act of speaking you can catch their face at a very bad angle or all twisted up. Generally, I like to do caps when the person is (1) absolutely still and (2) preferrably not speaking or if their mouth is at least not open real wide.
