Thunderball (1965)

Corrected entry: After Bond escapes a shark-infested swimming pool, James drives back to his hotel with a CIA agent named Pinder. He tells Pinder to tell Leiter "That Paula is dead." Pinder says OK - end of scene. No grief, no tears, and no amazement - just another day at the CIA I guess.

Correction: Not really a plot hole or mistake, it just shows that Pinder is a.) a heartless cad or b.) used to the fact that fellow agents die in the line of duty or c.) hiding his pain from Bond and waiting to let his pain out in private. Bond after all is used to the women in his life getting killed (thats the reason for all the martinis).
