From Russia with Love

Terence Young · 1963 CE · Film · English · Contemporary

A criminal syndicate baits a trap with a Soviet cipher machine and a clerk at the Istanbul consulate who claims to have fallen in love with a photograph. The British agent goes anyway, knowing what it is, and the return leg runs on the Orient Express with a killer trained on a Balkan island in the next compartment. The second Bond picture added the gadget briefing and the pre-title sequence.
