The Living Daylights (1987) teaser poster
It’s funny that the teaser poster for The Living Daylights (1987) uses a tagline similar to the title of the following movie, Licence To Kill (1989).
I absolutely love this teaser poster!
James Bond (Timothy Dalton) clears a path on the highway with stinger missiles in The Living Daylights (1987)
Kara Milovy (Maryam D’Abo) is impressed by James Bond’s (Timothy Dalton) sound system in The Living Daylights (1987) … (not really)
002, played by Glyn Baker, makes a disappointed face when he gets shot by a paintball in a training exercise at the beginning of The Living Daylights (1987)
007 is often asked who he works for, and the fictional import/export company he says is his employer is called Universal Exports.
It is mentioned several times throughout various James Bond movies, which I have listed below:
Dr. No (1962)
007 is shown walking into M’s office, which has a Universal Exports sign on the outside
I’ve always loved Bond’s great cello case escape trick from The Living Daylights (1987). Although it would’ve been neat to hear Bond (Timothy Dalton) explain the game plan to Kara Milovy (Maryam d’Abo) in this scene (how did they time it so perfectly with the passing tram?), I overall enjoyed how it was filmed and how we the audience are let in on the ruse.
I particularly enjoy the surveyor’s satisfied face and gentle head nod when he witnesses Bond get into his car, only to have his day ruined when he realizes the “person” in the phone booth is an empty cello case clothed with a hat and coat.
