*Bond’s investigation disturbs Dr. No, who arms his henchman, Professor Dent, with a poisonous tarantula destined for Bond’s hotel bed. That night, Bond loses his cool as he scrambles out of bed and beats the multi-legged assassin to death with a shoe.
This scene affords a rare glimpse of Bond revealing human weakness – fear. Such moments became rare in Bond films as 007’s character rose to unflappable, superhuman heights. *Source: Back of card
