Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Diamonds Are Forever
Jamed Bond(Connery returning) is on the hunt for Blofeld (Gray), who killed his wife in the previous Bond film (On Her Majesty's Secret Service), looking for revenge. Then it's off to Las Vegas to uncover a plot involving Diamonds. Aided by the lovely Tiffany Case (St. John) Bond searches high and low and being watched by the notorious twin team, Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd. Top that off by a memorable fight between tag team Bambi,Thumper and Bond and you've got a Bond film worth cheering for! Connery's last official turn as 007 (though he would return in Never Say Never Again). Followed by Live And Let Die (introduction of Roger Moore as Bond).
