Never Say Never Again

Bond helps Leiter and his team retrieve the missiles, then goes after Largo, who nearly kills him before being taken out by Domino. With the world safe, Bond decides to retire from MI6 and live with Domino. Nigel Small-Fawcett, the bumbling civil servant seen earlier in the film tries to persuade Bond to return to the service; Bond replies by throwing Small-Fawcett into his swimming pool and telling him "never again."

Never Say Never Again mistake picture

Factual error: When we first see Fatima Blush, she is waterskiing. She is doing several stunts, which are only possible with one ski, the most notable being skiing backwards with one foot in the air. However, when she releases the tow rope and skis up the ramp into James Bond's arms, she is on two skis. (00:45:55)

Question: Sean Connery took dancing lessons for 11 years in his youth, and he surely knew how to dance when he made this film in his 50s. So, why is his choreographed tango with Kim Basinger in this film so painfully, embarrassingly awkward and heavily edited? Is this perhaps due to the fact that Kim Basinger had virtually no dancing skills?

Charles Austin Miller

Chosen answer: Neither is a professional dancer. Having studied dancing some thirty years before does not mean someone has retained the same level of skills. As you mentioned, Connery was in his 50s by that time.
