The opening scene of "For Your Eyes Only" (1981) is a kind of follow up to this film -I won't say what happens in that scene, because I don't want to spoil it-, but let's say that is very satisfying. OHMSS is definitely an underrated movie that deserves more attention. But don't worry, Sean Connery will return in "Diamonds Are Forever" (1971), which is considered his worst film in the official franchise. Anyway, please don't stop reacting to that movie.

n the following film: Diamonds are Forever, Sean Connery is playing an official James Bond film for the last time, I don't count: Never Say Never Again from 1983 with Connery, supposedly playing James Bond again, because it's not an official film from these producers In fact, there were copyright issues, but for me it's a movie almost taken as a joke, like an old James Bond about to retire, recreating the Thunderbal story again, since it's an unofficial remake, but it doesn't have the same quality as the official movies in the saga, as a curiosity it's fine, but I don't count it within the official saga, excuse me, that movie is a parody.

I’m not sure about that; in Octopussy Bond’s contact in India is in disguise as a snake charmer playing his flute to a cobra in a basket, and not only does he get Bond’s attention by playing a few bars of the James Bond Theme on his flute, but Roger Moore’s Bond actually responds with something like “Ah, that’s a lovely tune!” Also, Never Say Never Again ends with Sean Connery, after saying “Never again!” To the girl he’s embracing, just straight up turning and winking to the camera. And then there’s the final shot of the 2nd Timmothy Dalton Bond movie License To Kill, where the movie fades out on a piece of the frickin’ *scenery* winking to the camera! (It’s…, weird)

Y'know, this film got me thinking about Bond and his relationships, considering that this is the one where he tied the knot. I'm honestly convinced that if Tracy lived, James would have left his womanising days behind him, what with him being a gentleman and all. My personal theory/headcanon is that this ending is exactly why Bond never settled down with any woman he hooked up with going forward, because he never truly got over losing Tracy and was unwilling to risk loving anyone the same way again in case he lost them as well. Even in later 007 movies, there are a few things I think support it. -The next film, 'Diamonds are Forever,' starts with Bond on the warpath, ruthlessly hunting Blofeld down, obviously in a vengeful mood. -After meeting Anya in 'The Spy Who Loved Me,' she recounts that he had many lady friends, but was only married once. As soon as she mentioned that, Bond immediately cut her off, obviously wanting to avoid the subject. -The introduction of 'For Your Eyes Only' starts with Bond visiting Tracy's grave. -After Felix and Della are married in 'License to Kill,' Della jokingly suggests Bond getting married next as he catches her thrown garter. Bond is clearly uncomfortable at this and quickly leaves. When Della asks what she said to upset him, Felix tells her he was married once, a long time ago. -Shortly before the climax in 'Goldeneye,' Trevelyan mocks Bond over some of his cliches, suggesting his womanising is a coping mechanisms for his guilt over those he failed to save. -The Daniel Craig films evidently follow a separate timeline from the classic Bond films. However, Bond is clearly haunted by Vesper's death in 'Casino Royale,' all the way up into 'No Time to Die' when he visits her grave early in the movie. What I'm trying to say is, behind the macho charisma, infinite rizz and casual sexism, Bond is a broken man who has been denied happiness and peace in his life, driven purely by his immense sense of justice. He can't settle down and be anything but a government-issue killer, so he might as well be the best at it.

George Lazenby of South Wales, Australia. He was an model and did commercials for a chocolate snack called Big Fry. His look, walk and talk were unique. Casted as the next Bond after Connery was luck of the draw. OHMSS is Lazenby's first film and he is quite charismatic as 007. Another mission, battling with Spectre, more action and more quips. Tracy's death was the most shocking moment in the franchise history and it wasn't fair that he could never be happy. However OHMSS showed how much of an human being that Bond is and not just a secret agent. Lazenby is still kicking at age 83 as the oldest living of actors who've played Bond. Diana Rigg passed away in 2020 and was an veteran actress of many mediums with iconic career, from the spy series, The Avengers (1965-1968) to Game of Thrones (2013-2017).

George Lazenby was a male model withZERO acting experience when he was cast. With nothing he filled an iconic role replacing an iconic actor and did a fabulous job.

This is the most wildly underrated Bond film of all time, IMO. As someone who's grown up with Bond and been a fan since I can't remember, this one ranks top 3-4 for me. I honestly don't care if Lazenby did only one film, he was actually quite good in his own way. The score, the late 60s vibe, the Olympics atmosphere and - of course - the ending are all just fantastic. I like to call it an "acquired taste" Bond, because it might need a couple of viewings to click with people. But when it does, it's worth it.

I'm glad you liked this one. It is tricky to adjust to the loss of Connery, but this movie ages like a fine wine. It really is better and better on rewatches and is one of a few Bond movies that legitimately contends for the title of "Best Bond movie of all time." Another of the all-time greats is coming up four movies from now...

While I'm still not sold on George Lazenby's performance, Diana Rigg did a great job covering for his inexperience, and I don't think Sean Connery, especially after how checked out he was in You Only Live Twice would have been able to handle falling in love and all that. So I'm not one of those people who thinks Sean would have faired better. George even summoned a tear at the end of the movie and the director ordered the scene be reshot because "James Bond doesn't cry." But he can get married? I say once you say Bond can settle down with one woman, all bets are off and Ian Fleming was fine with that, so I'm sure he would have been fine with Bond showing some humanity. The guy wasn't a robot.

That ending is literally straight out of the book. === Ten minutes later, Tracy said, 'There's a red car coming up fast behind. Do you want me to lose him?’ ‘No,’ said Bond. ‘Let him go. We’ve got all the time in the world.’ Now he could hear the rasping whine of the eight cylinders. He leaned over to the left and jerked a laconic thumb forwards, waving the Maserati past. The wine changed to a shattering roar. The windscreen of the Lanica disappeared as if hit by a monster fist. Bond caught a glimpse of a taut, snarling mouth under a syphilitic nose, the flash-eliminator of some automatic gun being withdrawn, and then the red car was past and the Lancia was going like hell of the verge across a stretch of snow and smashing a path through a young copse. Then Bond’s head crashed into the windscreen frame and he was out. When he came to, a man in the khaki uniform of the Autobahn Patrol was shaking him. The young face was stark with horror. ‘Was ist den geschehen? Was ist den geschehen?’ Bond turned towards Tracy. She was lying forward with her face buried in the ruins of the steering-wheel. Her pink handkerchief had come off and the bell of golden hair hung down and hid her face. Bond put his arm round her shoulders, across which the dark patches had begun to flower. He pressed her against him. He looked up at the young man and smiled his reassurance. ’It’s all right.’ He said in a clear voice as if explaining something to a child. ‘It’s quite all right. She’s having a rest. We’ll be going on soon. There’s no hurry. You see’ - Bond’s head sank down against hers and he whispered into her hair - ‘you see, we’ve got all the time in the world.'

"This never happened to the other fella" so classic ! Lazenby is criminally underrated as Bond, as the film itself. Great adventure, good action, great chemistry between Bond and Tracy, (which by the way is an excellent Bond Girl) and of course one of the best (and saddest) endings of the whole saga. Not everything is perfect of course, the editing for example is a little..."raw", even messy sometimes but either way, this film deserves respect

2.4K Thumbs Up + Mine! 👍 You're welcome, and thanks! ☺️ Notes: My reaction to the ending basically matched yours, though I was under ten years old. Despite that big honking mole or brown spot on his face, George was a popular enough model in Australia to get the attention of those that made this movie. Even Felix Lighter's bride doesn't last long. She's played by a blonde from "Three's Company" and I won't say which one. 😉 The death scene was so popular with writers that it became a fad or trend to kill brides off and make the heroes cry! It even happened to "James Tiberius Kirk"! "Bonanza" seemed to be really hot hard by it! The boys didn't get to become successful husbands and fathers until they were offscreen! But we don't know that until the advent of "Bonanza: The Next Generation"! It wasn't as popular as "Star Trek: The Next Generation" so it didn't last very long! 😮

Telly Savalas, goes on to play "Kojack"! A police detective series. Kojack gave up smoking cigarettes and to replace that habit he began consuming "Tootsie Roll Pops" and thus their sales increased! He was Jennifer Aniston's godfather, but he died a long time before her father did! John Aniston was in "Days of Our Lives". Her sitcom "Friends" had fun with that show, by having Joey become a cast member! 😀 Ergo, Jennifer never played a role in the daytime drama. However, actress Christina Applegate, who played one of Rachel's sisters, was in "Days of Our Lives"! Her first role too! She was used to play a baby boy! 👶 John Aniston's role as "Victor Kiriakis" was inspired by his best friend Telly's part in this movie! Telly & George Lazenby? They go on to be in WW2 movies too! If I recall right, one of them reunited them. 🤔

If this film was Connery’s swan song as Bond, it’d be as famous as Goldfinger. As it is, Connery decided when he began filming YOLT, that he wanted to drop the role of Bond, he was struggling to manage the hype around the series, and feared becoming typecast and would struggle to find acting roles. So they began auditioning and around 400 actors were considered. Among them Oliver Reed (a very notable thespian actor known for playing Bill Sykes in the 1968 Oliver Twist movie), and also Timothy Dalton, who rejected the offer because he was 25 at the time and felt too young for the role. They settled on Lazenby (an Australian) after seeing him in chocolate bar ads. He went to the fullest extent to impress in the audition, wearing a Rolex, wearing a Savile Row suit that had been ordered by Connery that Connery never collected, even going to Connery’s barber shop. He gained the part after showing how tough he was by accidentally punching a professional wrestler in the face who was a stunt coordinator. He was offered 7 films, but his agent told him in more or less these words “This James Bond business is a chore, and to be a secret agent into the 70s would be archaic, do one film and get out”. He took his agent’s advice. So Lazenby is very much the black sheep of the Bond films. He’s pretty wooden here, Connery lite many have called him. Had he done more films he probably would’ve gained some experience. His best moment of acting in the film is coincidentally his last few seconds imho. Minus him, everything about this film is grand and classic Bond stuff. No one can beat Donald Pleasance but Savalas is pretty iconic and I think his casting was so he could be a more physical Blofeld to match Bond. The cinematography is some of the best in the series. Peter Hunt made his directorial debut here, having been the series’ film editor and second unit director. The shots composed are absolutely stunning.

Becoming Bond is a very good documentary about Lazenby and his trajectory from car mechanic in Australia to his brief stint as Bond. It’s a fascinating, if somewhat tragic story. Looking at imdb, it seems he has stayed in the game a little bit and is still appearing on film and tv to this day. It’s streaming on Hulu. Also, Everything or Nothing is a really great doc about the entire franchise. Not sure it’s streaming anywhere now, though. Perhaps for rent on Prime? Worth a look for any Bond fan though.

OHMSS is an incredible Bond movie. Great cast, great script, great score. From recollection it was one of the first Bond films to have the soundtrack marketed as a separate entity. Bond poster cover, open out into a gatefold George Lazenby in his blue ski suit. In the cinema my mother worked in they set up a scalerectric (model car racing) track in an alpine like environment. If you could beat the lap record you won a holiday to the Alps. I was the one who set the lap record.

Glad you watched this. I'm one of those who encouraged you and warned you it was a very different vibe. It's always hard to predict who will love this one or hate it. It's probably the most controversial Bond (except for maybe the latest one). It's definitely one of the most important Bonds, and it's the longest. Some say it drags, others like the romanticism. I think Tracy was the best Bond girl ever. Lazenby got terrible advice from some friends. I understand they encouraged him to demand an exorbitant amount of money, and the producers dropped him to get Connery back for one more film--Diamonds are Forever--and paid HIM a lot instead. A lot of fans reacted negatively to Lazenby anyway. Getting Connery back one more time gave the producers some breathing space to search for a new Bond--and they found Roger Moore (who had actually been considered back when Connery first landed Dr. No). Moore was actually a few months older than Connery, but he actually looked younger than Connery in 1972--at least IMHO. Diamonds are Forever is very different from OHMSS. If you enjoy the Connery Bond, you'll probably like it. DAF follows the Goldfinger formula. The different actors playing Blofeldt (#1) is almost as jarring as the switch to Lazenby. I like Savalas the best in that role--except maybe the faceless Blofeldt in FRWL and Thunderball. Moore brought a different set of strengths and weaknesses to Bond. Handsome and fucking suave as hell. Not very convincing in the physical department--but he managed okay for quite a few years. Jen--I recommend you continue just the way you are. You seem to be enjoying them, and your viewers are getting a kick out of watching you watch Bond. I know I am. I hope to see your reaction to DAF in my feed in the not-too-distant future.

Of all the James Bond movies, this is the one closest to the original novel-- it's close to scene-by-scene the same (there are some differences, but not many). Including that ending, which is word-for-word from the novel. That's part of why it has a different feel than the previous movies: by this point the movie character had already developed in a very different direction from the Bond of the novels, but here the novel Bond puts in an appearance. (It's also why Blofeld didn't recognize Bond right away, even though they met in the previous movie: in the novel they had never actually seen each other before this story.)

Jen, another outstanding reaction! Lazenby talks about his one and only outing as Bond as a humiliating experience. Why? Because he went to the movie's premiere party unaware that the producers had dubbed over part of his dialog track with someone else, making him sound like a foppish dandy and silly for a large chunk of the film, and some important people attending were laughing thinking his performance was bad. Lazenby felt like this tanked his acting career before it even got started and it wasn't even his fault. Never before nor since "OHMSS" has Bond been overdubbed when he was pretending to be another person.

But then the series doesn’t continue. He gets married, quits MI6 and that’s the series done in 1969. He can’t go on as 007 because as we established by Tracy getting killed, Bond has made too many enemies and one of the reasons he’s such a good spy is that he’s a sociopath with no next of kin. Having a wife he has to worry about makes him a liability. So the series is over and sure, Bond gets his happy ending, but we get no more movies. He’s a fictional character, so I’d rather there be more films than giving a character that doesn’t exist in real life a happy ending. I’d rather he get another kind of happy ending- in a massage parlour. But they haven’t made an R rated Bond movie yet - unless you count the original cut of License To Kill, which would have been rated R, but for violence, not sex.

My favorite part of commentary is how you latched onto how Telly Savalas holds his cigarette, which I've always loved! And you actually identified why by pointing out his finger looking odd in one scene. He was missing part of his index finger, so he couldn't hold a cigarette in his one hand normally between index and middle finger. Bond fans often say if Connery did OHMSS, it would have been the best of the series; however, I agree with you, I wouldn't buy Connery's Bond settling down and getting married after the character he established in the first five films.

It's still open to the public today and includes an extensive museum about the Bond films and OHMSS in particular, with spectacular views in the restaurant. I visited there in June, needing to take four cable cars from the valley where it was over 30 Celsius, to the top where there was thick snow on the ground.

Keep in mind the books were filmed out of order, so in the novel Bond was legitimately not sure if the Count was actually Blofeld because they had never met face to face.
