Thunderball

Domino (Claudine Auger) goes snooping aboard her sugar daddy's boat in the James Bond film Thunderball. But she gets caught.

Largo, memorably played by Adolfo Celi, ties up Domino in a bedroom aboard his yacht.

There, he threatens to torture Domino with some ice and heat until she tells him what he wants to know.

Thankfully, the torture is interrupted by a scientist sympathetic to Domino's plight.

But not before Largo gives Domino one last villainous taunt before he leaves her.

The scientist comes back to rescue Domino later. Thunderball remains one of my favorite James Bond movies, and not just because of this scene (although it plays a big part). It's Bond at his mid-1960s prime.
