Review of From Russia with Love (1963) by Lee G — 15 Dec 2011
Before the James Bond series became an uncontrollable beast of a franchise, the producers made the perfect espionage movie. Sexy, action-packed, smart, funny. Connery is at the top of his game in his second outing as the immortal screen icon that made him an immortal screen star.
Robert Shaw is a perfectly menacing "anti-Bond" on the hero's trail. Bianchi may not be the best Bond girl, but she's probably the loveliest. First Bond score composed by John Barry set the standard high for years to come.
