Viewing Notes

Back to Bond! Really dig this movie. Love Robert Shaw as the main henchman that actually is given something to do (unlike, say, Oddjob). Daniela Bianchi is an exquisite Bond girl. Nice mythology around SPECTRE in this. Definitely one of my favorite Bond films and maybe second favorite Connery after You Only Live Twice.
