=====================
 
TITLE: On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969)
 
TIME: 2 hr 21 min
 
PREVIEW:
 
DESCRIPTION:
British agent James Bond goes undercover to pursue the villainous Ernst Stavro Blofeld, who is planning to hold the world to ransom.
 
FYI: this is ONLY James Bond movie where the character got married.
 
George Lazenby, Australian, was the 2nd of 6 actors to play Bond. Born in 1939, he was 30 when he made this Bond movie. Prior to this movie, he modeled clothes, did commercials, and sold cars.
 
He only did one film. He was offered the role for another Bond movie but his agent convinced him the Bond character was a passing fad with little future. Many years later, he recanted and tried to negotiate acting in another 007 film but never was successful.
 
Archibald Alexander Leech was one of the first actors asked to be James Bond. At the time, he was approximately 50 and they wanted him to commit to doing 5 movies. He said he would only commit to one. So they kept searching. What was his stage name?
