Continuity mistake: When Bond and Felix Leiter are underwater snooping around Lago's boat, Felix can be seen in diving gear minus a hat. After Bond gets sucked into the boat and Felix returns to land, you can see Felix take off the hat that was not in the previous scene. (01:30:30 - 01:32:50)
Never Say Never Again (1983)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Irvin Kershner
Starring: Sean Connery, Max von Sydow, Kim Basinger, Rowan Atkinson
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."

Q: Welcome back, Mr. Bond. I trust there will be lots of gratuitous sex and violence occurring.
Trivia: When Bond punches the bouncer outside Largo's casino, you can see a sign saying CASINO ROYALE. This was the first 007 novel Fleming ever wrote.
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?

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.
