From Russia With Love

Hey, long time no blog, right?

A couple of weeks (okay, more like a month ago), we watched From Russia with Love, the second James Bond movie in the series, this one from 1963.  The evil terrorist organization with no apparent raison d'être SPECTRE is the bad guy (bad guys?  bad people?), and Bond is trying to save a beautiful (of course) Russian woman who is ostensibly smuggling a code cipher machine out of Russia to hand over to the British, but actually is an unwilling double agent and an unwitting triple agent (she thinks she's working for Russia, but actually she's working for SPECTRE).

I really like the plot.  It's complex and requires some attention to follow, which is more than you can usually say for Bond flicks.  On the other hand, they didn't exactly have the "action" part of "action movies" down back in 1963, and parts of it really do drag.
