I seem to remember the briefcase full of cash sinking to the bottom, yet when Mr. White has it, whilst Bond is giving Vesper mouth to mouth, he is completely dry?

[DamnCoffee]

I have a thought that the Suitcase that was lost could be empty, and White got Vesper to double cross Gettler and he has the original but i dunno we'll have to wait and see.

[JCRendle]

White got Vesper to double cross Gettler

Weren't they from the same organisation?

[DamnCoffee]

Perhaps but remember Zorin and Mayday: "Your not the only one he double crossed"

[Publius]

The suitcase remembered it should have been floating.

Either that, or an unseen henchman. Maybe even a plot override.

He dived into the water to get the case then peeled off his wetsuit to reveal the suit underneath

[Elmason]

Isn't there a small bit where Bond is giving Vesper mouth to mouth and Mr. White picks the floating case out of the water? Its been a couple of months since I've seen it but I think thats in there.

[JCRendle]

There was a scene with him standing watching them, I think he already had the case then.

[sorking]

I've said it before and I'll say it again - there are always more henchmen. :-)

Well the scene was there. After Bond fails to resuscitate Vesper, the camera pulls pack to show White has been watching, and we see him leave with the briefcase.

[Agent Spriggan Ominae]

The case is show floating in the turbulent water after it falls in and after the house has stopped sinking there are chairs from inside the building showing bubling up from the wreckage. I think it's safe to assume that the case made it's way out and by luck White happened to spot it floating by and scooped it up. The fate of one henchmen in the building is a little inconculsive. The last we see one of the machine gun snipers is when Bond smashes him in the face with a 2x4. He is knocked uncouncious and most likely drowns but it's possible he came to and made his way out. He isn't shown dying so perhaps he retrived the case for White. Either way I wouldn't consider this a goof or plot hole.

Did you guys not see that huge pole that he used to reel in that suitcase? Surprised you didn't see that.

[Astonman]

I think the suitcase could float. It is flat, yet heavy. I conclude from learning from a science class that the suitcase can be buoyant (floatable).

The case floats, he reached down and picked it up.

or

Who know? Maybe we weren't supposed to think that much.

I always assumed that referred to Gettler meeting with Vesper so that the briefcase could be handed over. If there were in fact two briefcases, one would think that this would have explicitly been shown in the movie.

[Jericho_One]

cut scene

I dont believe there's actually a cut scene showing how he got his hands on the briefcase. It's not important to the plot though, so I never cared much about it.

Perhaps the Organization has a diving unit?

Yes, i had mentioned that on an earlier post............but as i have visited Venice, its canals
are not exactly crystal clear!!!!

There is indeed - we clearly see Mr White pick up the floating briefcase.

Do we?! I really don't remember that, but you've seen the movie more recently than I have

[Double-0-7]

Are we sure Mr White is carrying that same briefcase full of money that everyone was so upset about?

To my eye, he appears to be carrying the beautiful boxed set of UE DVDs in the optional briefcase. A very valuable commodity that one wouldn't want to leave lying around Venice unprotected.

Not the version I saw, it pulls up from the sinking house, Bond's there pumping Vesper's chest (and at one point cupping a feel), giving mouth to mouth, realising it's futile, then the camera pulls away from them to show Mr. White, already holding the case.

(Though I do remember, and seem to have mistaken earlier, the case floating)

Your right there 'JC'

There is no scene where the suitcase of money is pulled out of the water.
This is a point i have mentioned earlier, and is an unexplained occurence in the movie,
how Mr White got hold of the case!!!
