One Dress a Day Challenge

September: Bond Films

Goldeneye / Samantha Bond as Miss (Eve) Moneypenny

I think Samantha Bond is my second-favorite Moneypenny after Lois Maxwell. Her banter with Pierce Brosnan was great. This is from her first appearance in the role, when she's been summoned from a date to brief James Bond on an emergency situation, so it's a rare chance to see her dressed up in this little black dress with lace sleeves and a scalloped sweetheart neckline. We never really get to see the skirt, but it seems fairly short.

📽️ Downton Abbey: A New Era (2022)

This was better than the first movie. I felt like this story was more cohesive than the first movie’s, even though it’s basically two stories in one. I think the problem with the first one was that there were too many subplots to be handled well in a movie. This one didn’t have as much of that problem. I also felt that this one really wrapped things up. I wouldn’t be mad if there were another movie because I really like these characters, but I also think that their stories have been given their proper closure. All in all, this is such a great franchise, so I don’t think anyone would regret watching this or any of the others.

Sex/nudity: 2/10 (kissing, flirting, mild innuendoes)

Language: 1/10 (very mild)

Violence: 0/10

Overall rating: 8/10

Goldeneye was released on November 17, 1995. Goldeneye was the 17th EON James Bond film and the first to star Pierce Brosnan as 007. Brosnan was originally picked to star as Bond in The Living Daylights (1987), but at the last minute was prevented due to contractual obligations to Remington Steele. Goldeneye was meant to be Timothy Dalton's 3rd Bond film but the production got held up for years due to legal problems. Dalton finally gave up waiting and the role once again was offered to Brosnan. It was the first EON Bond film not produced by Albert R Broccoli. Besides, recasting Bond, Judi Dench took over as M and Samantha Bond as Moneypenny with Desmond Llewelyn being the only returning cast member in his long running performance as Q. It was only the second EON Bond film (the first being Licence to Kill -1989) to not be named after an Ian Fleming book (Goldeneye was the name of the house where Fleming wrote the Bond books in Jamaica) and the plot wasn't based on any of his books either. It also marked the first EON Bond film to use CGI. In a plot twist, Sean Bean dies at the end. ("Goldeneye" Bond movie event)

Every so often I rewatch Home Fires (sometimes the whole show, sometimes skip through bits) and I apparently forget the cliff hanger they left the series on??

Like… the show ended with a plane crashing into the doctor’s house whilst the butcher’s wife was inside having a baby!

How can I forget about that?! Also 8 years later and I’m still bitter they stopped after 2 series…

#Home Fires #I mainly watch this show for Ruth & Samantha #but also because I really enjoy it #fun fact: it was filmed in the town my Nanna lives in #well she lives in the middle of nowhere - her closest neighbour is a mile away #but it’s the closest town to her #and it’s gorgeous #Samantha Bond #Ruth Gemmell

It's time. Here's a Jewish news round-up:

First, some cheerful news:

They're standing in front of the synagogue's ark, where the Torah scrolls are kept. The inscription over the Ark reads, "Know before whom you stand" (Talmud, Berakhot 28b), which is a familiar thing to see in that space.

Without wishing to minimize the seriousness of events in Gaza, there has been very little recent reporting from Israel. Here is a glimpse of what's been happening there:

And here's an excellent illustration of how anti-Semitism works at the present time — unfortunately the perpetrator is someone quite well-known to a couple of my fandoms (and illustrates yet again that it dangerous for actors to allow too much about themselves to known):

And finally, I found this very interesting to read, particularly in who it acknowledges the limitations of this approach to demographics:

“TOMORROW NEVER DIES” (1997) Review

"TOMORROW NEVER DIES" (1997) Review Recently, I had watched "TOMORROW NEVER DIES", Pierce Brosnan’s second outing as James Bond. Roger Spottiswoode directed the 1997 Bond movie. It co-starred Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Pryce and Teri Hatcher.

When I first saw "TOMORROW NEVER DIES" many years ago, I had a low opinion of it. I wish I could say that my opinion of the movie has improved over the years after this latest viewing . . . but I would be lying. TOMORROW NEVER DIES had some highlights, but unfortunately, it possessed more negative traits than positive ones. I think it would be best if I list both the good and the bad about this movie: Positive: *What else can I say? Michelle Yeoh. *I found Bond’s romantic scene with a Danish linguist rather sexy. *The film's foreign locations – Hamburg and Thailand (as Vietnam) - looked more lovely, thanks to Robert Elswit's cinematography. *Bond and Wai-Lin’s escape from Caver building in Vietnam proved to be one of the better stunts I have seen in the entire Bond franchise. *Thanks to Roger Spottiswoode's direction and Michel Arcand's editing, I thought the Saigon motorcycle chase was handled very well. *Pierce Brosnan gave a very natural performance, especially during his scenes with Yeoh. *Oddly enough, I rather liked Vincent Shirerpelli as Dr. Hamburg. He proved to be a more interesting henchman than Mr. Stamper. And his death proved to be even more interesting. *Mr. Gupta seemed like a pretty sharp and cool guy. *The movie's main theme song, performed by Sheryl Crow - what can I say? I realize it is not regarded as one of the best theme songs from the Bond franchise. But I have always had a soft spot for it, thanks to Crow's vocals and the lyrics she co-wrote with Mitchell Froom. I mean . . . the song did earn a Golden Globe nomination. Negative: *Brosnan's angsty scenes with Teri Hatcher seemed stiff and unnatural. And his voice sounded odd in scenes featuring Bond's attempt to suppress his emotions. *Why did the director Roger Spottiswode, have Brosnan shooting two machine guns at once during the final confrontation on Carver’s boat? The actor looked like a walking action movie cliché. *I thought Jonathan Pryce had portrayed one of the most overbearing and annoying villains in the Bond franchise. Only Sophie Marceau in the latter half of "THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH" may have surpassed him. *Is it just me or is the plot of this Bond movie seemed like an extended rip-off of a "LOIS & CLARK" episode from its first season? Perhaps the discovery of Teri Hatcher’s casting must have given screenwriter Bruce Feirstein an idea. *Why is it that nearly every sentence directed by Ms. Moneypenny to Bond came off as a sly, sexual joke? Their dialogue grew very annoying. *Spottiswoode managed to transform Bond and Q’s Meeting in Hamburg into a hammy production number. Q was simply in Hamburg to hand over an armored company car to Bond. What a bore and a waste of time! *Carver's top minion, Mr. Stamper, struck me as a second-rate version of Red Grant from "RUSSIA WITH LOVE". Where was Robert Shaw or Andreas Wisnewski when you need them? *The entire car chase sequence inside a Hamburg parking structure featured Bond using a remote control . . . ah, never mind! The entire sequence struck me as a bore. Even worse, it happened after the marvelous Bond/Kaufman scene. What a waste of my time. *Despite all of the gunfire exchanged and the other action during the final confrontation sequence aboard Carver’s boat, I thought it was too long . . . and boring. *Joe Don Baker seemed wasted in this film as C.I.A. liaison Jack Wade. *Bond’s Cover as a Banker – I am beginning to suspect that Bond makes a lousy undercover agent. By opening his mouth and hinting at Carver’s boat, he ended up exposing himself. What an idiot! *Teri Hatcher seemed wasted in this film. And her angsty scenes with Brosnan seemed forced - almost unnatural. TOMORROW NEVER DIES did managed to produce a few favorite lines of mine: Favorite Lines: "Believe me, Mr. Bond. I can shoot you from Stugartt and still create the proper effect." – Dr. Kaufman to Bond BOND: "You were pretty good with that hook." WAI-LIN: "That’s from growing up in a rough neighborhood. You were pretty good on the bike." BOND: "Well, that comes from not growing up at all." "No more absurd than starting a war for ratings." – Bond to Carver KAUFMAN: "Wait! I am just a professional doing a job!" BOND: "So am I." (Then kills Kaufman) Despite some virtues, "TOMORROW NEVER DIES" is not a favorite movie of mine. In fact, it is my least favorite James Bond movie featuring Pierce Brosnan. Unfortunately, director Roger Spottiswoode seemed unable to elevate Bruce Firstein's generic screenplay marred by an unoriginal plot and one of the hammiest villains in the franchise's history. Hmmm . . . too bad.
