Casino Royale Vesper Death Song

by admin

The woman who steals Bond’s heart in Casino Royale Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) works for the Financial Action Task Force of Her Majesty’s Treasury and has experience in illicit banking practices. She supervises the British government’s funds that finance Bond in. Yeah, it's the best Bond movie. Too bad Quantum of Solace(the direct sequel) is probably one of the worst ones. It's better than the two that came after. Quantum of solace is at least watchable, while skyfall and spectre are fucking garbage. Probably my biggest in-theater. Casino Royale (2006) Eva Green as Vesper Lynd. James Bond: talking privately to Vesper after losing all of his chips Well, I'm gonna need the other five million to buy back in.

A wartime spy described as Winston Churchill's favourite has finally been remembered with a blue plaque.

Christine Granville, who was born Krystyna Skarbek in Warsaw, joined British intelligence in 1939 and is said to have inspired Ian Fleming's spy character Vesper Lynd.

She struggled after the war and was given cheap lodgings at a London hotel run by the Polish Relief Society.

It was her home until she was murdered by a stalker in 1952, aged 44.

The English Heritage Blue Plaque has been unveiled at the former Shelbourne Hotel (now 1 Lexham Gardens), in Kensington, and is inscribed with both her original name and the one she adopted.

Granville's daring exploits and impressive career during wartime have been widely accepted as Bond author Fleming's inspiration for double-agent Lynd in Casino Royale.

“007 is like complete fantasy”

Actually, there was more than one real life model for the character James Bond, the most important of which was the Serbian Dusan Popov. Popov was undoubtedly the source of the baccarat scene in Casino Royale; Ian Fleming, also a British agent, had observed him in action at the Lisbon casino. Like Bond, Popov was a gambler, drinker, womanizer, and enormously brave, but unlike Bond he didn’t like to kill. The action-hero part of the Bond character was modeled on Patrick Dalzel-Job, a commando who also worked with Fleming during WW2. Dalzel-Job was however a non-drinker who only loved one woman during his life. So the character James Bond is a composite of the two most memorable men Ian Fleming observed in wartime action.

Yes he was ,

hence his callsign as Tricycle, for his bent towards bedding 2 women at the same time.
