Who's your favorite "Angel of Death"? Who do you think is the best portryed/most beautiful?

I really like Joanna Lumley, although the American girl is quite beautiful also.

Good point. When you see her skates flash across the screen as Bond is being chased, and the picture slowly moves up to her face, that is perhaps the slickest moment in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Fun question.

I've always sort of liked this girl (below). She has kind of that Raquel Welch thing going on.

Not that I find these girls attractive in that way but I would have to say that of the Angels, Ruby is the best.

Yes, Ruby... For what she lacks in the looks department, she makes up for in "enthusiasm."

Did I just say that? Man, I'm a pig. :)

You hit it on the mark zencat. THAT voice, although it is kind of fun in a way.

I have a fondness for Catherine (von) Schell, especially after appearing in Space: 1999.

Quick question: there are 12 girls supposedly from all over the world but which country is Ruby and Joanna Lumley's character from? One is British but who, and where is the other one supposed to be from?

Well, Lumley is playing the girl from England, but doesn't Ruby say to "Hilly" while they are in bed that she is from somewhere in England? (I think)

Yes, I go with that.

And my point is that there are only 12 "angels of death" for the whole world, yet 2 for little England. A tad redundant don't you think?

(in the picture that I attached) ...The girls wearing the sunflowers I think are quite pretty. But the girl with the hibiscus in her hair, I think she is the prettiest :)

Perhaps Blofeld wanted to make sure England was really knocked out of the way. :)

I'm with zencat. I believe http://www.blofeldscat.com lists that girl as being "Denise, the Israeli girl."

The blonde that had the Princess Leia buns at the dinner table was pretty hot too.

Did you guys remember that this is unofficially Ruby's second appearance as a Bond girl? She was one of M's daughters, I think her name was Buttercup, in Casino Royale.

Yes, I absolutely agree with you on this point Qwerty, that is probably my one single favorite shot of the entire series. I remember seeing it on TV when I was just a young kid and simply being blown away by it.

DLibrasnow, I rewind that scene every time, to watch it over and over again. It's so magnificent, so thrilling, so perfect! It's an example of an original idea that works wonderfully to introduce the character again. (BTW, I actually think the way the music is timed as she glides onto the screen adds to the effect.)

Hmmm... Beats me. Maybe because the one I posted was a pic of the trading card? I'm really not sure of the rules myself. It might be helpful if we posted guidelines on this somewhere.

Ya, I think we need to have some general guidelines somewhere.

I think the music, editing and cinematography have never been married together as perfectly as they were in that one scene....Diana Rigg has never looked more beautiful and she simply sparkles in that scene....That is one of the major reasons why On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is in my top 5 of all the James Bond movies.
