Plot – Greed, revenge, world domination, terrorism, hi - tech: these are some of the ingredients of the new James Bond adventure, that begins in Spain outside of the Guggenheim Museum and continues in London, exactly on the Thames river, where a spectacular high-speed pursuit with speed boats takes place. It continues in the highlands of Scotland and in the Caucasus Mountains where the secret agent survives to an avalanche too. It ends in Turkey where 007 foils a nuclear explosion. Bond has been committed to protect Elektra, the beautiful daughter of the oil tycoon Sir Robert King, recently assassinated by a famous international terrorist and by his assistant Dr. Christmas Jones, an expert of nuclear weapons. During his mission, 007 goes to the Caspian Sea, then to Istanbul where he meets a valuable ally before taking part to a dramatic final showdown, set in the tight spaces of a nuclear submarine, which is sailing into the depths of the Bosphorus.
