Casino Royale (1967)

My goodness, this is strong shampoo

Here’s another gem of a quote from the odd unofficial James Bond movie Casino Royale from 1967. It’s pretty random, but Evelyn Tremble delivers it perfectly after he drinks his drugged champagne. So no, it’s not strong shampoo, but strong champagne that’s giving him fits. It’s a great misnomer.

Although overall it’s a difficult (unofficial) James Bond movie to get through and truly enjoy, I find I do start to like it more with each watch, but definitely not as much as other Bond movies. Random quotes like this that make me chuckle are some of the reasons why. I like to think of this Bond movie as one where you have to see the trees for the forest and not the forest for the trees to get the most out of it.

Dude was an asshole!  Too bad for the absurd plotlines.  The electro-suit comes to mind.  He could have stole the show in a toned-down Die Another Day.

Sanchez is an underrated Bond villain.  No one was as cruel. More drug kingpin villains please!  Fentanyl trafficking would be an easy sell to the audience and would be relevant as ever.
