The name's Bond, James Bond

I was finally able to see No Time To Die, the latest 007 film, and enjoyed it very much. There were no bondage scenes, but it was still a superb Bond adventure. Rami Malek was chilling as the villain. And No Time To Die was so gripping and enthralling overall that the film's two forty five run time simply breezed by before I knew it (I saw it as a digital rental at home). Had I seen it sooner, I would have included No Time To Die on my 'Best of Movies' list.

The barefoot bondage scenes you see here are from the 1965 Bond film Thunderball.

Claudine Auger stars as Bond girl Domino, whom Bond (Sean Connery) has convinced to go snooping aboard the private boat of her sugar daddy, a Spectre operative.

In the best tradition of Nancy Drew, Domino is captured by the villain, and is threatened with torture--until one of his minions comes in to inform him or a recent development.

There's even a good moment when the villain tells a helpless Domino that nobody is coming to help her ( half expected him to throw in a good "Bwu-hah-hah-hah!" for good measure.

But the very same minion who stopped the torture returns to free Domino. enabling her to keep fighting. Just as James Bond will keep fighting the good fight. Bond is forever. I'm really looking forward to the next 007 adventure.
