DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER

Okay, so I’m a sucker for Bond movies – even the “B” ones. (Just not the ones graded “C” and “D.”) This 1971 one, for example, returns Sean Connery to the franchise, after an embarrassingly ineffective one-film substitution by George Lazenby. Diamonds doesn’t sparkle, by any means, but it does show off Jill St. John to good effect as one of the Bond girls – and Lana Wood, Natalie’s sister (pictured), as another one.
