The Spy Who Loved Me

I rented all the Bond films on DVD within a two month period of time about two years ago. The one film that stands out as the most captivating Bond film for me was, The Spy Who Loved Me. I feel the love story in The Spy Who Loved Me separates this film from the other Bond films. It was so tragic when The Bond girl gets attacked by those wild dogs. To this day I still can see the images of her running through the woods without a morsel of hope. And the theme song fit the film like no other. So Tragic that she gave her life to help Bond, then paid for it in the end. Anybody else just love this movie???

Saw OHMSS?

The wild dogs sequence happened in Moonraker, not TSWLM. And she didn't "give" her life as you so put it. Bond boinked her and then entered Drax's office, and went through his things. Corinne Dufour only glanced at the clock that held Drax's safe with secret papers. The only reason she was killed was because she supposedly helped Bond, which in reality she didn't. She was seen by Chang, Drax's samurai boyguard exiting Drax's office, who was later killed by Bond.

I don't know about that, I could have sworn the woman was killed by dogs in TSWLM. 😬

Okay, what's that? 😕

I read over that, but yeah, RA has it right. It doesn't happen in TSWLM... most of their time is spend in Egypt

and OHMSS is On Her Majesty's Secret Service

Did someone mention OHMSS??? 💃

Good! Now we're talkin'!!! 😮‍💨

Does somebody else smell a stinker? Peeyu! That movie only stands out because Bond gets married... for like an hour before his wife is killed by his arch-enemy, Blofeld, in a drive-by shooting.

I thought that was what made OHMSS watchable, the rest I find extremely dull 😖

but you gotta admit, RA... the scene after the drive-by shooting is highly emotional

Only because of the song by Louis Armstrong: "We Have All The Time In The World."

and the death of his wife

Drive by shooting??? 😱 Bond IS so influential...Lady Rigg must be so proud!!! 😮‍💨

what else would you call it? and it picks up well in RL 😉

The spy who loved me is one of my favourite Bond novels, amazingly put together and moody as all hell - told in the first person from the point of view of the tales "bond girl". It all takes place over one night in a motel...

Didn't think much of the movie tho, which as you can imagine is a little diferent in plot.

most of the novels and movies differ a lot... and those of Pierce of course don't have a Flemming novel to base themselves on
