“I think he got the point.” Named by the American Film Institute as one of cinema’s greatest screen heroes, James Bond was back in action for THUNDERBALL (1965) – the fourth theatrical outing of the iconic agent with a license to kill. Suave and ruthless enough to have earned the nickname “Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” the inimitable 007 was embodied once again by Sean Connery, who was honored with an AFI Life Achievement Award in 2006 – and whose delivery of Bond’s classic drink order also earned a place among AFI’s greatest movie quotes of all time.
