From Russia With Love. £3 in HMV. Bought it to see how it stood up against Skyfall.
Well, it's a period piece now. Dated, hackneyed, slow in parts and a very slight story. But Connery is a magnetic screen presence and Robert Shaw is great. And, yes, the fight in the train retains its power because it is believable fighting, like a major scrap in the school yard. In most modern scraps, the protagonists would be dead or unable to carry on after the first round!
