Campbell, who was promoting his new movie The Protégé, continued: “[It] is a simple scene where Bond comes into his hotel room, takes off his jacket, takes off his shoulder holster, puts them on the sofa, starts to run a bath, senses someone else is in the apartment, crosses the balcony, goes in and there’s the girl in bed.”
During this scene made famous by Sean Connery in 1963’s From Russia with Love, Bond is in a towel and holding a gun.
The director continued: “She’s got the Lektor [cipher] machine and what Bond has to do is…one seduce her and two get her to change sides in order to keep the Lektor.”
“So it’s both seduction and it’s also him kind of seducing her not just to take her to bed but also to get the Lektor machine.”
