These songs are united by theme as well as by circumstance, in that none of the vocal versions were heard on their films opening credits. They instead occurred as mood setters while the films plots unfolded. From Russia with Love was made before Goldfinger, and thus had fewer of the familiar Bond conventions in place, We Have All the Time in the World was from the sole George Lazeirby vehicle. On Her Majesty s Secret Service (1969), and The Look of Love was from the non-canon Casino Royale (1967). [Pg.107]

Barry, John. 2000. Commentary on On Her Majesty s Secret Service DVD. MGM. [Pg.115]

We Have All the Time in the World - Bany/David, sung by Louis Armstrong, from On Her Majesty s Secret Service (1969). [Pg.123]

On Her Majesty s Secret Service (1969) - We have all the time in the world is drenched in romantic melancholy, but uniquely eharacterizes the enigmatie contrasts of Bond. The bridge section—evocative of pastoral daydreams— particirlarly contrasts with the violenee, eraelty, lust, and heartbreak found in Bond s world. It provides a still plaee of refleetion and rest it tempers James Bond with gentleness. [Pg.124]

Moneypenny is absent from the universe altogether—a point that is further reinforced by a man appearing as M s assistant in Quantum of Solace. Moneypenny is termed Britain s last line of defense in On Her Majesty s Secret Service, and while the comment is flip, the moment she is erased fi om the Bond universe in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, 007 is breaking into M s home and stealing her passwords. She is a gatekeeper, and without her, Bond has one less restriction placed on him. [Pg.152]

Lazenby was offered a seven picture deal, which remained open to him after the release of On Her Majesty s Secret Service in December 1969. With the coming of the end of the decade Lazenby took rather poor advice when he did not reprise the role, even when the money offer had been improved. He told a British national newspaper in 2002 that The advice fi om people I trusted wasn t good James Bond is over, hippies are here, plus its Sean Coimery s gig. Harry Saltzman offered me one million dollars to do another. He was embarrassed that United Artists didn t know I had signed (Metro, 2002 13). [Pg.366]

This is reflected best in Glen s use of realistic locales, rather than spectacular sets, but also by his own assertion that FYEO [is akin to] a straight thriller (Glen 2005), in the vein of On Her Majesty s Secret Service (Hunt, 1969). [Pg.422]

Teresa Bond s headstone states her date of death as 1969, the year On Her Majesty s Secret Service premiered. Working from the assumption each film takes place in the year released this would make the Bond of this 1981 instalment around 50, something closer to Roger Moore s actual age of 53. [Pg.424]

Guy Hamilton returned to helm Connery s one-time return for Diamonds Are Forever, and this time the director imbued the him with more humor than ever before, sometimes dipping into slapstick. After the hnancial failure of On Her Majesty s Secret Service, the producers must have dictated that the new Bond him be more of an entertaining romp than a serious spy picture. Audiences apparently loved the result, for Diamonds Are Forever brought the grosses back on track. And Connery said goodbye once more. [Pg.8]

I almost took points away for the prologue of On Her Majesty s Secret Service. It s not so much as it s dull, hut that it breaks a rule of good fiction. At the end of the prologue, after George Lazenhy dispatches the had guys, he turns to the camera and says, That never happened to the other fellow, a reference to Sean Connery. Why would James Bond say that never happened to James Bond ... [Pg.57]
