Review of From Russia with Love (1963) by Monty H — 17 Dec 2012
Connery's second Bond film is a winner. Better than Dr. No in so many ways. Part romance, part thriller with a little humor and great villians. Of course Connery is perfect as 007, without question. But this film has some truly twisted and effective villians. Robert Shaw is terrific as Russia's premier super assasin Red Grant. And Lotte Lenya is memorable as Rosa Klebb. his boss. And let's not forget Daniela Bianchi, who is just stunning as Tatiana, the girl who is forced to betray Bond, but winds up with him anyway. She is truly breathtaking. Definetly one of the best Bond films ever made.
Kerim Bey: "Ah, the old game: give a wolf a taste and then leave him hungry. My friend, she's got you dangling".
