Continuity mistake: In the boat chase, when Bond comes to the shipyard, the goon can't find him. But there would be obvious foam/wake marks and waves after Bond's boat for several minutes.

Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Guy Hamilton
Starring: Roger Moore, Bernard Lee, Lois Maxwell, Jane Seymour, Yaphet Kotto, Clifton James
Bond places timers in Kananga's poppy fields which he uses for heroin. He attacks a Voodoo ceremony where a priest is about to kill Solitare with a snake bite but he shoots the priest and then Baron Samedi arrives. Bond shoots him in the head but it is only a dummy. The real Samedi arrives but Bond knocks him in a coffin filled with snakes and dies. Bond finds a way into Kananga's lair and kills him by putting a heavy duty air capsule into his mouth which makes him inflate and explode. Bond and Solitare take a train to New York but Kananga's henchman attacks but is thrown off the train.

More trivia for Live and Let Die
Question: Bond kills Kananga at the end by placing the bullet with the air pellet in his mouth which causes him to inflate and explode. But Bond had the bullet in his own mouth before when he was concealing it. Why didn't it kill him?
Answer: Bond knew to not bite down. Kananga had no such knowledge. He didn't realise what he was doing, or the effect that it would have on him; hence, boom.

Chosen answer: Bond just stored the bullet in his own mouth to hide it. As he puts it in Kananga's mouth he presumably pulls a pin, or forces Kananga to bite it.
