Ladrón de Basura (a.k.a. Junk Thief) said...: I was going to say Merchant/Ivory's "Jefferson in Paris". That sure looks like Nick Nolte on the right; September 3, 2007 at 11:01 AM
Gavin Elster said...: Here is a hint:
One person in this picture is Major Boothroyd.; September 3, 2007 at 11:39 AM
EmmaPeel007 said...: Did this film also star Ivan Boleslawsky?; September 3, 2007 at 7:30 PM
Gavin Elster said...: It has Terri Alden of threes company
and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea's Capt. Lee B. Crane; September 3, 2007 at 8:16 PM
Ladrón de Basura (a.k.a. Junk Thief) said...: Okay, my first guess is still "Jefferson in Paris" because I know Nick Nolte's face when I see it, but my second guess would be 1989's "License to Kill" featuring David Hedison and Priscilla Barnes, but that's a long shot. I know my Merchant/Ivory catalog very well, and I distinctly recall this scene during the Monticello segment.; September 3, 2007 at 9:17 PM
Gavin Elster said...: Bingo! "License to Kill" it is!
This was to be a serious moment to show off one of "q's" gadgets. Yes its a polariod camera with a laser in the flash and as a secondary function also takes some sort of X-ray pictures. That is Q and Bond leaning clear of the laser that strikes the oddly x-ray'd picture on the back wall.; September 3, 2007 at 9:29 PM
Ladrón de Basura (a.k.a. Junk Thief) said...: Aw, gee, I was sure it was Nick. All the same, do I still get to claim my cash prize? I'd accept food stamps or cat food if you prefer.; September 3, 2007 at 9:42 PM
Gavin Elster said...: You get a Laurel and hearty handshake.; September 3, 2007 at 10:04 PM
