I am watching From Russia with Love (available free on Comcast On Demand; see your local Comcast sales rep )
when I noticed that the Evil Chess Master Bronstein is the spitting image of Vlad.
Coincidence? I think not. |
| Coelacanth | 27 Feb 2015 6:56 p.m. PST |
I don't see the resemblance… Ron P.S. The actor's name was Vladek Sheybal; though you never see him and Putin in the same place and time. |
| Winston Smith | 27 Feb 2015 6:57 p.m. PST |
He has hair in your picture. |
| HistoryPhD | 27 Feb 2015 7:13 p.m. PST |
Hmmmm, looks nothing at all like Putin |
| Garand | 27 Feb 2015 8:34 p.m. PST |
Actually the current James Bond sort of reminds me of Putin for some reason… Damon. |

Political Komissar's name on "Red October" is Putin… Chess master does look like Putin, a little bit. |

Ian Flemming who was the creator of James Bond was CIA wasn't he? Maybe he was trying to tell us something? |
| Ironwolf | 27 Feb 2015 10:31 p.m. PST |
Ian flemming was naval intel. |
 Dal Gavan | 28 Feb 2015 4:26 a.m. PST |
Ian flemming was naval intel And Royal Navy at that, not USN, Coelacanth1938. I think that bloke looks more like Lurch from the Addams Family than like Putin. ;-) Dal. |

Hmmmm as Casino Royale was made in 1967 Vlad the shirtless at 15 probably had some hair, however as a Pole Vladek Sheybal would have kicked your arse for suggesting he was Russian. Coelacanth
I feel the fact that Sheybal died in 1992 has a lot to do with him and Putin not being seen together. Oh a for suggesting that Fleming was a member of the CIA I would hold his jacket, and Martini, while he kicked your arse. ;-) Fatman |

He was, but no one could see him because he forgot to put the lifts in his shoes. |
 Legion 4  | 28 Feb 2015 9:03 a.m. PST |
Yes, Fleming was RN. But in theory the UK and US intel assets may work together at times … |

in theory the UK and US intel assets may work together at times … And at other times they stick a half-dozen spooks on a ship headed for a US port visit, borrow a US Sailor or three for a tour of HM's ship, and then take him down to the crew's mess taps for some beers and start talking shop. Just to see what Uncle Sam *isn't* telling them! |
| IGWARG1 | 28 Feb 2015 8:36 p.m. PST |
This one has more resemblance to Putin

Don't make me break out my Gollum pictures. |
| skippy0001 | 05 Mar 2015 6:02 p.m. PST |
Actually, Putin reminds me of Bob Newhart and Joey Bishop. |
| Jemima Fawr | 06 Mar 2015 3:08 p.m. PST |
I expect that he was in a Russian remake of Brokeback Mountain. |
| ubercommando | 12 Mar 2015 3:31 a.m. PST |
Putin appears in the opening scene of The World Is Not Enough, playing a Swiss banker. Of course, he's working under the pseudonym of Patrick Malahide. |
| Henry Martini | 12 Mar 2015 5:30 p.m. PST |
Well, he's certainly gotahide. |
