The Briefest of Reviews from 1973

This movie manages to figure black people as both primitive and (somehow also) villainous. But, I love me some Yaphet Kotto, and he was great in this picture, and, well – truth be told – more than anything else Live and Let Die is interested in

A) Roger Moore's upper body
&
B) crocodiles 

I rather enjoyed it, liking, as I do, both crocodiles and shirtless men.

  1. Jane Seymour's screen debut, no?

    Easily the best Moore-era Bond flick.

  2. Yes, it was Jane Seymour's debut. I'm still wondering how she ever took off...
