From the Bond vault with love
The second shoe has dropped. Volumes 3 and 4 of the James Bond Ultimate Editionhave landed, adding 10 titles to the 10 released last month. Once again, the movies have been painstakingly restored, the bonus features from a past Bond set have been included and the new extras include commentaries by Roger Moore on all his Bond titles. Volume 3 has the better half: From Russia With Love (Lotte Lenya trades Kurt Weill songs for a stiletto in her shoe), Live and Let Die, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Goldeneye (Pierce Brosnan's first Bond) and For Your Eyes Only.
