So many great roles and always that commanding presence... his voice unmistakable and always so smooth as JB. Rest In Peace indeed, good sir...

I still remember the theater where I saw Dr. No in 1962. 13 years old with a sweet lil' honey (don't remember her though). My favorite scene is in 'Raiders - Last Crusade' when he uses his umbrella to scare up a flock of seagulls into the path of a German fighter plane.

He was a good actor and loved his parts in Bond but certainly not a good person, he openly condoned hitting women including his own wife.

Found this previously posted Oct 13 2015 on "Paul's thread of posting more than T.C." Thought it appropriate to repost.

He was a good actor and loved his parts in Bond but certainly not a good person, he openly condoned hitting women including his own wife. Frankly speaking, he admitted he did but with... 1. A warning 2. Open handed Frankly I agree with him on it. There are times it's warranted. Being a woman should not mean an easy out. Put yourself in a mans world, expect to be treated like one. |

Do you limit your physical abuse to woman or do children and animals also make the list? |

I've raised 3 kids and they aren't on the evening news like the nitwits we see today regularly. |

He did revise his opinion of this later.
In 2006 he told the Times of London, "My view is I don't believe that any level of abuse against women is ever justified under any circumstances. Full Stop." |

Last Saturday - the day of his death - we were hiking in the woods around the monastry "Kloster Eberbach" where parts of his famous movie "The Name Of The Rose" were shot in 1986. What a coincidence.
