From Russia With Love

Lists: Action, Adventure, Thriller, James Bond films, Gentlemen spies

Brief Synopsis: "James Bond is back and on the loose in exotic Istanbul looking for a super-secret coding machine. He's involved with a beautiful Russian spy and has the SPECTRE organization after him, including villainess Rosa Klebb - she of the killer shoe. Lots of exciting escapes but not an over reliance on the gadgetry of the later films. The second James Bond feature, thought by many to be the best."

Dylan B80 - Good plot and classic scenes. Connery begins falling into the roll, as we begin to see more gadets, and a wonderfully flirtatious Daniela Bianchi. Series still needed time to fall into what it becomes.
