007 영화 출연 여배우들의 그 시절과 오늘
007 Dr.No Ursula Andress
Ursula Andress - Honey Rider (Dr. No)
Ursula's voice was dubbed in the movie, but that didn't stop her from becoming not only the first,
but also the most famous Bond girl. Her entrance, walking out of the sea, was recently voted #1 in
the top 100 sexiest film moments. Ursula scaled back her film roles after the birth of her son in
1980, and since then has focussed almost exclusively on small roles in European films.
Her last main screen role was in one of Matthew Barney's Cremaster cycle Currently living in Rome.
Daniela Bianchi - Tatiana Romanova (From Russia With Love)
A former Miss Rome and runner up in Miss World 1960, Daniela was a novice actress when she
landed the role of Tatiana. She retired from acting a few years later (making her autograph one of
the hardest to get for Bond collectors) and married a shipping magnate. Her last screen appearance
was in the Bond spoof, OK Connery, starring Sean's brother, Neil Connery.
Shirley Eaton - Jill Masterson (Goldfinger)
Shirley the girl who helps Goldfinger win his Rummy game appears in the movie for less than
five minutes of screen time. Yet the image of her gold-painted naked body has become iconic,
something which she notoriously recreated for the cover of Life magazine (above) in 1964.
Shirley retired from acting to be a full-time mother to her two children in the early 70s.
Now a widow, Eaton, 68, currently divides her time between her homes in England and the South of France.
Honor Blackman - Pussy Galore (Goldfiinger)
At 37, Honor was the oldest Bond girl to appear on the screen, yet cannot be forgotten for what is undoubtedly
the single best character name in any movie before or since. Honor continues to work today, receiving a British Academy Award in 2000 for The Avengers. She is also involved with “Fair Trade”, which aims to ensure
third world producers are treated fairly and can make a living from their work.
Claudine Auger - Domino (Thunderball)
Beating out Raquel Welch and Faye Dunaway to the role, this former Miss France introduced Bond to
the world of watersports with their undersea makeout scene.
Since her Bond appearance, Claudine has continued to act in a variety of US and European movies.
Mie Hama - Kissy Suzuki (You Only Live Twice)
Best known to western audiences for her Bond role, Hama was already a well established actress in
her native Japan, and has the distinction of the first woman to be pursued on film by the King of Monsters, Godzilla. Rumor has it that when the Bond producers complained she wasn't learning English fast enough,
she threatened to commit Hari Kari. Hama also starred in the movie that Woody Allen was to famously dub
an reissue as What's Up Tigerlily. Mie went on to host a TV chat show before retiring and becoming an
active environmentalist.
Jill St John - Tiffany Case (Diamonds Are Forever)
Jill's life offscreen is perhaps even more jet-set than the roles she played.
Her lovers included Frank Sinatra and Henry Kissinger, and she married four times, most recently to
actor Robert Wagner.
Eventually tiring of acting, Jill created her own franchises, which included a line of sweaters and
wigs - unsurprsingly businesslike for a woman with an IQ of 162. She found a new career later in life
as a food writer and TV chef, including a stint on Good Morning, America.
Lana Wood - Plenty O'Toole (Diamonds Are Forever)
“Hi, I'm Plenty”. “Well, of course you are” - classic Connery! The sister of late actress Natalie Wood
(which gives Robert Wagner TWO nuptial connections to this movie), Lana's other most noteworthy role
was as Yolanda in the TV movies Captain America & Captain America II.
Lois Maxwell - Miss Moneypenny (appeared in every Connery Bond movie)
The rundown of Connery girls wouldn't be complete without Miss Moneypenny, a role Lois played in
14 Bond movies over 23 years.
She also managed to get sucked into the above mentioned OK Connery parody too.
Man, that sounds like a curious film - if anyone has ever seen it, write and tell us about it. In fact
her non-Bond screen credits surprisingly far outnumber her turns as Moneypenny, Lois retired in 1989,
and now lives in Fremantle, Australia near her son.
