It should be possible to evaluate a feature film
by careful examination of one shot (or even
one frame). The contributions of many in the
credits (from director to accountants) can be
seen in each frame.
Like taking a blood sample.

One of the most striking images in this film is
of the actress Ivana Milicevic, just after her
character has poisoned Bond's drink at the
bar. As she turns to look over her left shoul-
der we cannot help but notice how beautifully
this shot has been planned. The lighting, the
hair and makeup. The actress herself who
manages to communicate menace without
a single word. The casting director who hired
her. The set builders and decorators. All
made their contributions.
There's nothing quite like a blond in blue
light...
