[net.movies] James Bond Trivia - marriages? plus new trivia

halle@hou2b.UUCP (J.HALLE) (06/20/85)

James Bond was married once - in Diamonds Are Forever.  I think
his wife was Diana Rigg.  She was shot in the head by Bloefield
(I think I have the right bad guy).

Two more trivia questions:
1.  Name the 6 actors that have played James Bond in the movies.
2.  Name the actor that played James Bond in a made-for-TV movie.

The correct movie is On_Her_Majesty's_Secret_Service.  I think that the rest
of your information is correct.

Yes, you have the right bad guy but the wrong movie... it was
'On Her Majesty's Secret Service'.

Partial answers:  Sean Connery, Roger Moore, George Lazenby, David Niven
       and my guesses:  Alan Arkin and Peter Sellers ???

Now here's a question for you... who played the various Blofeld's and
in which movie did they appear (or not appear) ???

I think you mean actorS, whether you realize it or not.  George Lazenby
played Bond in the recent Man From Uncle film, I think it was called
RETRUN OF THE MAN FROM UNCLE.  Then there was the Barry Nelson version
of CASINO ROYALE run on the CLIMAX tv anthology series in the mid-50's.
That technically is a movie and it was certainly made for TV.

Don't forget Woody Allen.

	Almost. It was "On her Majesty's Secret Service".
Technically, it was Bloefeld's accomplice who shot her. Bloefeld
was driving the car.
>

	Peter Sellers, Sean, George Lazenby and Roger.

	The only instance I can recall of JB showing up in a MfTV movie
was in the movie that reincarnated "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." TV
series. Napoleon and what's-his-name were driving down the street and
get passed by a silver Aston Martin DB5 driven by (I think) George
Lazenby.

The actors who played James Bond in theatrical release movies were:

	Sean Connery	(The only good one :-)
	Roger Moore
	George Lazenby	(On her majesty's secret service)
	David Niven
	Peter Sellers
	Woody Allen	The last three were several of many actors
			playing the role as pseudo-"James Bond"'s.
			The movie: Casino Royale.  Woody Allen directed.
			I suspect that there were a couple of other
			no-name actors also shown for a minute or so at
			a time.

JUDGES!  We need a ruling on this one.  Woody Allen actually played James
Bond Jr. in Casino Royale.  I don't think Woody Allen should count as a
James Bond.  Alan Arkin and Peter Sellers each played Inspector Clouseau,
but James Bond?  I don't think so...

Wasn't Bond married to an oriental woman who was shortly
thereafter killed in "You Only Live Twice"?

	I thought Woody Allen played the nephew of Secret Agent
	007, not his son. Technically though, he played a James
	Bond, as mentioned in my previous article which attempted
	to quote the song at the end of the movie. After all, the
	question asked which actors played James Bond, and I don't
	believe it asked which actors played 007, even if this was
	the intent of the question.

Woody Allen played the infamous Jimmy Bond, James Bond's nephew.... not
James Bond Jr.  Probably he shouldn't count as a James Bond.
