Revealing mistake: At the beginning of the film, Bond is on a training exercise to free a trapped hostage. Since it is only a training exercise, everyone involved is using blanks in their weapons. Why is it that when Bond fires an automatic rifle, we hear multiple bullets ricocheting? (00:03:25)

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.
