The film that explains everything about James Bond is like diving into the heart of the character, deep in his soul, those who find him misogynistic should see this film and there they would understand, I cried at the end.
@@garyg1705 He sneaks into the rooms of several ladies at night, Bond remains James Bond, but it's the film where he finds Love with a capital L, I won't spoil any more, it's a film to watch to understand James and forget Bond even if he remains James Bond.
It is my personal favorite because it was the only time Bond got married and to the most beautiful British Bond “girl “ of the all, Dame Diana Rigg, the Countess Theresa. Also my favorite.
@@benlotus2703 Actually Ben , Dame Diana Rigg was born a biological male, or didn’t you know that. Geez, talk about politically correct. Get over yourself.
After 25 (technically 27) Bond films, OHMSS remains my favorite Bond film. It was an excellent adaptation by Richard Maibaum of Ian Fleming's novel (2nd of the Blofeld Trilogy) It has, in my opinion, John Barry's best Bond score (as you can hear😊) Broccoli & Saltzman did make an effort to get Barry's score an Oscar nomination; it certainly deserved it. While I love the 2003/Lukas Kendal expanded edition, I'm hoping LaLa Land (as they've recently done with other Bond scores) will release a 2 cd complete version this fantastic Barry Bond gem.
A shout out to all the posts celebrating this Bond singularity (which, by the way, was NOT a box office flop - it turned a profit, just not the profit that was expected) which stands among the best Bond films (and is my personal favourite [partly because I like underdogs]) for a variety of reasons: the producers - and Lazenby - faced an implausible challenge: reinventing the entire tone of the franchise, which they did in spades (the editing alone pre-dates 'The French Connection' and 'Jaws' but is never celebrated). I wish Lazenby had continued in the role to give himself a chance to settle into it more deeply, for his arrogant, quasi-thuggish carriage mixed with Bond's style and a new sense of vulnerability (this is the only Bond film where 007 gasps in a micro-second of fear - ...and his sorrow at Tracey's death) carries 007 past Connery's pub crawl best bud Bond (no matter how masterful he was - and he was) to a Bond who is not always entirely likeable; it is the only film that comes close to a consistent character study (later touched on in 'Goldeneye' and then expanded in 'Casino Royale') - and as for the score - it IS, without a doubt, Barry's best (hell, its among Barry's best score, period). Though some of his other Bond scores come very close ('Goldfinger', 'YOLT') or feature interesting takes on his own signature Bond sound ('TMWTGG', 'Moonraker'), OHMSS, consolidates and elevates all of Barry's prior gestures and mixes in analog synthesizer in a contemporary but organic way, generating beautiful composition after composition: the legendary title track (which lay fallow for decades until rediscovered), 'Journey to Blofeld's Hideaway,' 'Gumbold's Safe', 'Dusk at Piz Gloria, 'Over and Out', and of course, Satchmo's final recording of 'We Have All the Time..." - among others.
OHMSS was the only one that was a MANCHO Bond movie. Perfect timing. And of course John Barry's score was and is still the best Bond soundtrack ever. And that's the bottom line cause Stone Cold said so (from 976-CREOLEMAN)!
I was really sorry to hear that this film was a box office flop, this one was one of my favourites It shows James Bond with emotions especially the part where he is caught by surprise by the man in the polar bear suit with a camera flash. The look of fear and surprise looked genuinely real as the split second thought that must've crossed his mind was my number is up. His emotion at losing Teresa too.
The film was a success. Had budget $8,000,000 and in worldwide box office $82,000,000 (James Bond Franchise Box Office History - The Numbers). But was the smallest success at that time and probably in the series. Bond with fear look, is also in ''Thunderball'' ruclips.net/video/P8Ke_-jEroI/видео.html
The problem with the movie is that Lazenby could not act. Compared to Connery in his prime, he was absolutely terrible, although the script in this movie did him few favours and at time touched on camp 'Call me Hilly' (!)
I agree with all that you wrote. For the first time the audience is treated to a James Bond as creator Ian Fleming drafted him. Thank goodness Sean Connery did not assume the role for this outing because his penchant for narcissism, his clipped delivery of lines, coupled with his detached boredom already witnessed by 1967 would have made this outing lackluster-but as it is, Lazenby turned a fine performance and his masculine physicality was a major bonus!
@@michaelschramm1064 Connery in ''You Only Live Twice'', is the character of Bond here. An agent tired and bored from his job, finds happiness in love and marriage.
@@user-xp2gm8im2c Well that’s the novel, sort of…Bond loses his wife in Fleming’s OHMSS, feels almost suicidal and beaten down in Fleming’s YOLT, the follow up book. But that reasoning does not apply to the film since YOLT and OHMSS were filmed out of book order sequence. Tracy didn’t die prior to the YOLT film, so there is no reason for Bond to feel remorseful, weary and dejected. What you see on screen is ALL Connery, just plain fed up and tired of the role. He famously yelled at the press on shooting locations for YOLT several times. Hell, he was getting annoyed by the time of “Goldfinger” and once even intoned “I knew the franchise was going down the wrong path when I read in the script that Oddjob crushes a golf ball like an egg…”. Already by then he knew he wanted out.
Y este fue lamentablemente un BOND de un solo filme, pero fue una buena actuación como protagonista. La música de JOHN BARRY acompaño las andanzas de este BOND, y además en el SCORE se escucha la voz de LOUIS ARMSTRONG .
@@leonardoledesma708 That’s what I figured. Never saw the film but was reasonably certain the main title to OHMSS was not used, but rather the love theme.
Good film....Would have been a great film if Connery had starred in it..... Fantastic music..... An academy award winning score.....Much better than the recent efforts.....Even Hans Zimmer included We Have All The Time In The World in No Time To Die.....
@@randywhite3947 I disagree. Connery was so disinterested at this point in the series I think he would have phoned in his performance like he did in YOLT. He later said he would have done it if he had read the script, but if was with hindsight that he said that. I personally think he would have tossed it out of the window. For better or worse, George is who we got.
@@randywhite3947 Sean Connery really out of touch with the Bond films wanted more money. Did not get it from the Bond films producers got bored out of shape put on weight smoking to much california grass drinking beer and getting the muches.
One of the greatest Bond soundtracks ever-and the best Bond movie ever!
Best on both counts!
John Barry earned his paycheck on this one big time :)
What about Skyfall or Goldeneye?
Loved this film, the locations, and the soundtrack. Lazenby worked as 007, and Diana Rigg was one of my favorite Bond girls.
The film that explains everything about James Bond is like diving into the heart of the character, deep in his soul, those who find him misogynistic should see this film and there they would understand, I cried at the end.
The ending never fails to make me cry. So very, very sad.
I cry every time, such a brilliant Film
The End...Got me..
doesnt he creep around different ladies rooms at night having his way with them?

The best Bond OST by John Barry.
Sublime ...
Best by Barry-and best soundtrack of the franchise. 👍🏻
@@michaelschramm1064 correct
Best Bond movie, best music.
My favorite Bond soundtrack! Wonderful!

@@benlotus2703 You have problems in the head.
Diana Rigg was my all-time favorite Bond Girl. Despite her protesting, she couldn't possibly not be a sex symbol.
One of the bests James Bond's movie, a movie to see if you don't have seen.
I bet you have gender pronouns in your Twitter bio.
@@benlotus2703 You have problems in the head talking about. On Her Majesty Secret Service is a great James Bond film best of the series.
La colonna sonora più bella di tutti i film di 007. Fantastica Diana Rigg.
Concordo in pieno. Per me è il film di 007 più bello di sempre. Poi diana rigg era veramente stupenda!!
Favorite track will probably forever be the sublime and magisterial “Over and Out”.

この作品は、ボンド映画の最高傑作です。😮
contaba con 17 hoy 72 gracias mister john barry cuando la vi en el cine nunca la olvidare rip..en casa de dios......🌹🌹🌺...
Pour moi le meilleur des James Bond musique compris avec John Barry maître incontesté de 007

James Bond 007. Para mí de las mejores. Very Good.
It's a shame that 'Gumbold's safe' is missing from this collection as it's one of the best tracks on the score
If you but the remastered score on CD it has 10 bonus tracks, Gumbold's Safe being 1 of the bonus tracks.
Completely agree. An excellent example of John building suspense
All The Time In The World and Dame Diana Rigg💖🥲

If only Lazenby didn't let the role go to his head and get caught up in the hype, perhaps there could have been more good Bond films with him in them.
His then agent was 90% responsible for his walking from a 7 film contract.
@Timalan5376
He was the "working man's" Bond in my opinion. I related to this version of Bond more than all the others!
Music is incredible....♥
Definitely the best bond
Thr best Bond movie
@16:00, this was used in 'No Time To Die'
“Over and Out”? I doubt that it sounded as close in instrumentation and pace though.
"We Have All the Time in the World", from OHMSS, was the music used in "No Time to Die".
