This temple is near by Kundrakudi lord Murugan temple. […]

Wer jedoch kein Vermögen für eine dieser Kultuhren ausgeben möchte, für den gibt es eine günstige Alternative.
Vor allem in den 80er Jahren war er öfters mit Digitaluhren von Seiko zu sehen (erfahre hier mehr über James
Bond Uhren). James Bond verbindet man eigentlich mit Luxusuhren von Omega und Rolex, doch der britische Geheimagent hat
in seiner langen Karriere auch noch andere Marken getragen. Bond ist so blind vor Liebe,
dass er zu spät bemerkt, dass Vesper Lynd mit Mr. White geheime Pläne
macht und diesem das Pokergeld übergeben will. Als Quasi-Babysitterin für Bond und das ihm
zur Verfügung gestellte Spielgeld in Millionenhöhe wird ihm
– zunächst sehr zu seinem Missfallen – die attraktive Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) zur Seite gestellt.
James Bond Casino Royale ist ein Agentenfilm aus dem Jahr 2006 von Martin Campbell mit Daniel Craig und Eva Green.
Bond selbst nutzt mehrere Omega-Armbanduhren (Seamaster Planet Ocean und später Omega
Seamaster 300 M), die er im Film auch erwähnt, sowie eine HK UMP mit Schalldämpfer,
mit der er in der Schlussszene Mr. White ins Bein schießt.
Ähnlich lange ist auch bereits Chris Corbould für die Effekte der Bondfilme zuständig.
Für den Geheimagenten wurden über 200 Darsteller in Betracht gezogen, darunter die Australier Karl
Urban, Sam Worthington und Hugh Jackman sowie der englische Henry
Cavill. Die Musik schrieb – wie auch bereits für
die drei Vorgängerfilme – David Arnold, unterstützt von seinem Orchestrator Nicholas Dodd.
Danke fürs Lob 🙂Auf der 4K-Scheibe von Casino Royale
ist keine deutsche PCM-Spur enthalten.
Wie in den 3 Vorgängerfilmen war diesmal wieder David Arnold für die Filmmusik verantwortlich.
Die besten Agentenfilme Im englischen Original erhält Vesper Lynd in Montenegro den Decknamen „Stephanie Broadchest“ (von englisch broad ‚weiträumig‘
und chest ‚Brust‘); in die deutsche Fassung wurde dies als „Stephanie Brustwartz“ übertragen.
