★★★★☆

Starring: Sean Connery, Desmond Llewelyn, Bernard Lee, Lois Maxwell, Robert Shaw, Daniela Bianchi, Lotte Lenya

Genres: Action, Adventure, Bond, Romance, Thriller

Character mistake: Tatiana Romanova asks a local policeman for help. Lutfen is Turkish for please. Tatiana says Luften, which means warm. (00:14:30)

Character mistake: In the scene at Kerim Bey's office, when the bomb goes off, we see a heavy desk topple over. Bey says he was saved because he was relaxing on the couch with a girl. But he wasn't at the desk before either. He was sitting in some sort of sofa arrangement in a different corner of the room. We don't even see the desk before the bomb goes off. (00:32:05)

Suggested correction: Kerim is saying that had he been sat at the desk, he would have been killed and luckily for him he was relaxing on the couch.

Mistakes

Continuity mistake: The train is stopped because Spectre has pushed a 1950's style Dodge truck full of flowers in the train's path. Later, when James is driving it, trying to avoid the grenades dropped from a helicopter, the truck has turned into a very different-looking 1961 Chevrolet truck.

Questions

Question: When Bond hands Moneypenny the photo before he leaves, he writes "From Russia With Love" on it. Would this be another in a series of Bond sight gags, similar to stopping the bomb timer at "007" seconds in "Goldfinger"?

Movie Nut

Chosen answer: It would, yes. Also I am to understand that it's his sense of humour.
