Let’s face it –
most of we ladies imagine ourselves as a Bond girl – at some point in time,
after having seen a James Bond movie or two or three.
I was 10 years
old when Goldfinger came out. I’ll never forget the sound of Shirley Bassie’s
voice singing that dramatic song! Then there was the very handsome, Sean Connery,
as James Bond himself. The action, the wardrobe, the cars, gadgets and Miss
Moneypenny! I’ve always had fun dreaming about being one of James Bond’s “girls”
– not the ones that wind-up dead though – of course!
Jill St. John
was oh so pretty her role as a bond girl and Halley Berry. Smart, pretty and
not under-stated. Who wouldn’t like to go on an adventure with James Bond? I
will admit, the actors that played James Bond, between Sean Connery and Daniel
Craig – just didn’t do it for me. After all, Rodger Moor was “The Saint” and
Pierce Brosnen was “Remington Steel”. It was hard to see them as “James Bond”.
I was very glad to see Daniel Craig get the role as James Bond – at last –
someone without a previous TV role association.
Well, that’s
just how I feel and what I think.
