|---|
In the biggest Bond Box Office hit of the 1960's British Secret Agent, James Bond 007 is on a race against time to recover two nuclear missiles from the vile clutches of the evil organization known as S.P.E.C.T.R.E. Journying to the Bahamas where he meets the lovely Domino (Auger) as well as the villanous Largo (Celi), also known as #2, Bond must track down the whereabouts of the nukes before time runs out and key targets are destroyed. Remade later as Never Say Never Again (also starring Connery). Followed by You Only Live Twice.
