I absolutely LOVE how the camera doesn't focus on the knife until Draco puts his glasses on. The cinematography in this movie might just be the best out of all the Bond films.
@@NeonpyramidsNo, direction. Yes, Hunt was an editor on other films but OHMSS was first attempt at Director. I suppose every director plays to his own strength so Hunt structured his movie around the edits as a former editor. Everything about this movie and its production values elevated Bond from super thriller to high art.
Italian actor Gabrielle Ferzetti was fabulous as Draco in this film. His voice was dubbed, though, quite unnecessarily as he spoke good English at the time the film was made. Good old Cubby Broccoli strikes again; the man was just addicted to voice-dubbing.
I do like his dubbed voice however. It’s like Gert Fröbe’s original voice in Goldfinger, also fabulous from what little we’ve heard of it (although he couldn’t speak English so well) but I couldn’t have the final film any other way, it’s perfect!
This was just a bit of fun. I wanted to see if Roger’s golden tones could elevate Bond’s dialogue in the scene. Ferzetti was a great Italian actor and Lazenby was ok but as he admitted in interviews, not an actor. It’s a great Bond film though.
@@Neonpyramids what is an actor ?...someone who holds his own on screen and makes it believable..Lazenby definitely did and fantastic screen presence..... Movie buff all my life and as a first time actor under that much pressure and responsibility he did brilliantly
Very good film, I have this on DVD. George Lazenby was indeed a very good but the best Bonds are Roger Moore and Sean Connery. The Moore voice over is excellent !! it takes a lot to impress me !! It would also be interesting with a Connery voice over . Please check out my Tom Baker impression !!
All things considered, Lazenby did a hell of a job despite no acting experience, no film experience either, in mostly Connery's and later Moore's shadows. He just had some insurmountable obstacles Dame Diana Rigg did her best to help him as she was an established actress before Bond and before The Avengers for that matter
Rather clumsy exercise, with an unconvincing Moore impersonation. (At times, the delivery is flat, just what Lazenby was accused of, at the time!) George Lazenby's voice was fine, his performance excellent. Of course, it was Sean Connery who woke people up to the fact that a "British spy" doesn't have to sound like David Niven - or Roger Moore, for that matter.

I agree. Peter Hunt’s direction makes the movie
@@Neonpyramids He did great job, but direction is too romantic and ignored Bond and Blofeld meeting in the previous film.
@@ΜακηςΛ-ε5ρ Direction meaning the editing of the film
I caught that when I first saw it aged 5 and the magic never wears off. That and the candles at Piz Gloria.

Please, stop knocking Lazenby, taking everything into consideration his IS still the best Bond movie ever

@@peterfranks6243 Yes I agree. He did have good presence. He himself admitted years later that he could do much better with more experience.
@@Neonpyramids Have you seen Who Saw Her Die? George is an extremely improved actor.
A really good Bond movie but not the best ever.
Gabriel ferzetti was a terrific actor....great as draco...tracy's father
Once upon a time in the west. He was excellent
Yes, Once Upon a Time in the west, L'Aventura
"What she needs is a man! To dominate her!" No way they could get away with a line like that today 😂🤣😂🤣
You definitely could get away with it if you had the balls and refused to apologize for it
And even Tracy thought her father needed his wig split for even thinking that
Grow some balls kid!
Draco should have returned in Diamonds Are Forever
Also Irma Bunt, but ''Diamonds Are Forever'' is a follow-up of ''You Only Live Twice''.
Draco returning..
Okay but why? Explain the storyline....
@@amandah.2688 because it would have been nice to see Draco and bond both get revenge on his daughter's killer
@@amandah.2688 Love irma...best female villian ever
@@007beck9 agree
SO SAD LAZENBY DID NOT MAKE AT LEAST ONE MORE BOND MOVIE.
I expect Roger would be amused, but it is it Rory Bremner
Great job! Anyone else find that Moore and Lazenby sound somewhat similar? At least moreso than any other Bond actor
No!!!! Lazenby had a great voice and accent. Nothing like Roger Moore's.
No-body sounded like Rodge. Lazenby had a Rod Taylor style Aus-Merican accent but none of the experience and control of Moore.
Sexy Bond Voice!!!!!
@@Neonpyramids Actually, Lazenby spoke with more conviction and feeling than Moore, with none of the smug, throwaway style.
Not Roger but Roger-ish. Very well done.
Gabriel Ferzetti was actually the one in the film whose voice was dubbed by David de Cheiser ( apologies if misspelled). He was uncredited.
de Keyser actually.
The Bond people then offered him an appearance in Diamonds are Forever in the pre credits sequence, playing Blofeld's doctor.
The guy sounds nothing like roger Moore because he had a natural gentleman's voice

Thank you!
I totally agree. Too bad Albert Broccoli wasnt a better psychologist
....zabawne chłopaki...trzeba im było v2 do Londynu dostawić..uff...pajace..😁😁😁😁
You sound more Aussie than George Lazenby
That's not Moore lol

What a horrendous dub. LOL god damn
