A true guilty pleasure among Bond films. Who can forget a young Jane Seymour
as Solitaire, a psychic held captive? Or Clifton James as Louisiana Sheriff
Pepper, the most colorful character the Bond series has produced? Or Tee Hee
and his mechanical arm? Or Geoffrey Holder (the voice of 7-UP) as the evil
Baron Samedi? Or the best theme song ever (by Paul McCartney and Wings)?
Certainly not me, though I had to be reminded that this was a
Bond-gets-drug-smugglers story. But the early-'70s pop culture exudes
throughout this flick. It's certainly a unique entry into the Bond oeuvre (not
to mention the first appearance of Roger Moore.)
Bond #8.
