So who does not get the latent lesbian tendencies of Pussy Galore and the defeat of such tendencies by James Bond? Every man's fantasy but why?

The 1st Bond Girl: Linda Christian

Linda Christian is the first Bond Girl. She appeared in the television version of Casino Royale in 1954. The DVD version of the 1967 movie has a segment of this teleplay.

Bond Girl: Barbara Bouchet

Some people may not consider the first Casino Royale a Bond film but I do. It is a spoof of the James Bond genre and can be terribly uneven at times but it has a wonderful tongue in cheek attitude and some great lines.



I particularly like the scene where Evelyn Tremble played by Peter Sellers exits Casino Royale in pursuit of an evil henchman who has kidnapped one of his accomplices. He calls for a very fast car and his driver (Stirling Moss) drives up in a Formula 1 style race car and gets out.

Evelyn Tremble - Moss?
Moss - Yes, sir.
Evelyn Tremble - Follow that car!
Moss - Yes, sir.

Moss promptly RUNS after the car.
                   
Evelyn Tremble - I'll use Fangio next time. Idiot!

The physical humour is readily evident but one should note that Moss and Fangio were Formula 1 rivals.

One of the actresses in Casino Royale was Barbara Bouchet playing Moneypenny. I think Louis Maxwell was the best Moneypenny but Barbara Bouchet is definitely the hottest!

 

 

 Special thanks to Keith who has several posts about Barbara. Funny how our tastes are similar.

 

From Russia With Love

Oh yes. Choker. Stockings. Tatiana. And BOND!

James Bond: You're one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen.
Tatiana: Thank you, but I think my mouth is too big.
James Bond: No, it's the right size... for me, that is.

Oh James, you stud muffin!

Bond Girl: Aki

Speaking of Bond Girls...

Aki is probably why I drool over Japanese women.

For those that care: You Only Live Twice is my favourite Bond movie.

Bond Girl: Eva Green

Some Bond Girls disappear into obscurity but I hope Eva Green is not one of them.
