"My dear girl, don't flatter yourself. What I did this evening was for King and country. You don't think it gave me any pleasure, do you?" - James Bond, to Fiona

Why watch this? The only real James Bond takes on SPECTRE once again.

Plot Summary: James Bond is dispatched to the Bahamas to recover two stolen nuclear warheads hijacked by the criminal organization SPECTRE. He must stop SPECTRE, led by the ruthless Emilio Largo, from using the bombs to extort the Western powers for a massive ransom. Bond teams up with CIA agent Felix Leiter and Largo's mistress, Domino, to uncover the plot and prevent a nuclear catastrophe.

Dad's Preview: I think part of my kinship with this film is that my sister had the soundtrack on vinyl. The album cover was so freaking cool, with black and orange-clad scuba divers battling each other with spear guns, all under water with retro mini-submarines. Connery is cool as a cucumber as the world's greatest super spy. Here, he squares off against the evil Largo. The undersea scenes are action-packed, and must have been really hard to film!
