GREAT INTROS#13 ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE

OHMSS

The only instrumental Bond title sequence. The Bond movie with perhaps the best Bond Girl in Diana Rigg, the best villain in Telly Savalas and a pretty good plot is overlooked by virtue of Lazenby's casting as 007. He's not as bad as he's painted to be and I certainly feel he would beat Moore's lounge lizard Bond in a fight. The titles recap Bond's previous adventures and there is something quite charming
about it's lo- fi swinging Britain approach.

    Actually that's probably my favourite Bond movie - if Connery had been in it it would be considered a classic.
