The LOST Bond Film - The Property of a Lady 1961
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- Before Dr.NO there was The Property of a Lady. Never released for over 60 years, see Sean Connery as 007 in his debut mission, shot in 1961.
Only the most dedicated of fans know that after an early test screening all film negatives were destroyed in a fire by an enraged Albert R Broccoli who retooled the franchise, leaving this film as nothing more than a forgotten footnote in the series.
What you will see is the only remaining footage for "The Property of a Lady".
For those still reading, this is a fan edit made from two early Sean Connery films, Woman of Straw and the Frightened City, which has been colorized.
This was just a fun experiment and is NOT a real Bond film. See if you can make heads or tails from the plot!
Sean Connery and Gina Lollobrigida........Pure MAGIC !!!!!!!!!
It's from a film WOMAN OF STRAW. Connery is the villain in the film. Not a lost Bond film
Gina Lolla-Jupiter!! Where's Ann Marg-rock?
This movie is actually. The Woman of Straw. From 1964. With Gina lollobrigida and Sean Connery NOT A LOST JAMES BOND movie
Apparently you're one of the minority here that neglected to press the "more" option listed beneath the film, where the presenter goes into depth on this subject. So thanks for stating the obvious.
Apparently you're one of those who find acceptable a total fake title and even lecturing those who point it out.
@@fabribeijing total click bait. I hate how low people go get views
Why didn't they say this instead of the bs lies about it being Bond. Ugh. Thanks
thanks. I knew it had to be cheap click bait but wanted to know which movie it is
Seeing this makes me miss him even more as 007 … no one could play this part better !! 😢
God, this makes me wish there was 5 more Bond movies with Sean. I love the 60s ones the most..
Consider him the only real 007. Next Roger Moore was the Saint, and the JB films became comedies
@@MarkFencke same, Bond was Connery and Craig. The rest can bugger off.
Sean Connery was the best 007 ever.😊
@@MarkFencke Moore was massively popular as Bond, and made seven films.
@@ebbhead20 Craig can bugger off. I'll keep Connery, Moore and Brosnan.
The colorized scenes with Herbert Lom are from Frightened City 1961. Most of the rest is Woman of Straw 1964. The first time bond appeared was in 1954 on TV, Casino Royale, black and white, with Barry Nelson as an American Bond, screenplay by Ian Fleming.
I'm 78 & saw the 1954 t.v. version of James Bond's "Casino Royale", when it was new & the
film "Woman of Straw" in '64, when I was in the Army, but I never heard of the film "Frightened City"!
I also remember Connery playing a villain in a late '50's Tarzan movie, with Gordon Scott!
The Barry Nelson Peter lorre 54 TV show was transmitted in colour I think. You can now watch it colourised as its so much better.
The title was the Frightened City. A vg gritty noir British gangster film. Shot in black and white.
And Bob Holness the first British man to play him on radio and yes Woman of straw with Gina Lollabrigida and Sir Ralph Richardson mixed in with Thunderball and Goldfinger

My father actually did the final rewrite of the screenplay. He was a struggling screenwriter in Hollywood at the time, and this screenplay was his big break. He demonstrated his ability to take whatever was handed to him and reshape it into a lean, tight plot with a crystal clear narrative.
Stanley Mann & Robert Muller are listed as screen writers
Yeah sure!!!..... BULL fish!!!
What screenplay? Thunderball?
Was Ian Fleming involved in this movie ? Was this movie based on any stories Fleming had written of Bond ?

Exactly right!! Good post.
Sean Connery was the definitive James Bond, he was a superb actor. The Bond films of the 60’s will never be bettered. This is a beautifully crafted composite that holds up very well, an excellent piece of work.
Whatever it's origin , it had me on the edge of my seat for 24 minutes . I could have watched it for another couple of hours easily . Gina , in the early 60's without all the makeup of her later films , was an absolute goddess . Thanks to whoever posted this !
This is the Film Woman of Straw, Ken Adams is also involved and you can tell. Great film too.
Very creative. Well edited. I liked the addition of background music from movies such as Goldfinger and Thunderball. Gina is beautiful.
In 1991 there was supposed to be a 3rd Timothy Dalton film called property of a lady about a Hong Kong business man who sends an intelligent robot after Bond. Sounds like it would have been an AWESOME film. There is also 2 older casino Royale films and a Moonraker made by Warwick studios in 1959. There is also 2 other short films with Sean Connery in, one called Women of straw, and the other called the scared city!
@ronaldmcdonald8303,,,There was no Film called "Moonraker" ever made in 1959 , There was a film called "The Moonraker" Made in 1957 released in 1958 Starring George Baker/Sylvia Syms , but this is a tale set during the english civil war & has nothing to do with Ian Fleming or his Novel Moonraker or James Bond 007 as for Casino Royale there has only been Two Films bearing this title ever made the 1967 Bond spoof version Starring David Niven/Peter Sellers & the 2006 Eon production Starring Daniel Craig/Judi Dench ,, Before These There was a 50 minute Television Episode of 1950`s show called Climax! (1954-57) in 54 called "Casino Royale"which starred Barry Nelson as an american agent called Jimmy Bond up against La Chiffre played by Peter Lorre , a truly forgetable event.
ps
The Frightened City (not Scared City!) 1961 & Woman of Straw 1964 were not short films , Both were full movies..
@@brianjones7907 There was a TV series compiled into a short film by Warwick Studios in 1959. I know about the George Baker film in the previous year. I was on about the Bond TV series/ film in 1959!
@@brianjones7907 There is also a spin off films in 1965 based on the novel license to kill. The 2nd greatest spy in the world, or something similar!!!

Timothy Dalton was the closest to Fleming's idea as Bond
I met Sean Connery in 2003 at beverly hills.
Is that near Croydon?!
@@paulbird1808West Croydon
I slept in the same room and bed as Ian Fleming's nephew in Oxford England in 1970. He had left a copy of "Diamonds Are Forever" on the bedside table.
the theme sounds like Tom Jones with a very bad cold..
Well done! Ralph Richardson would've made a great Bond villain, especially with the wheelchair.
This is mostly from "WOMAN OF STRAW" -not a James Bond movie!
The real name of this movie was The Woman of Straw released in 1964. The film was shot at Pinewood Studios, Audley End House in Saffron Walden, Essex and in Majorca in the Balearic Islands between August and October 1963. This film HAD NOTHING TO DO with the James Bond franchise. It was just another Sean Connery's movie. 🔫🔫
Absolutely! if it wasn't for the added soundtrack, no one would make tha association.
Audley end railway station was the line to London I remember from the late 60s
Brilliant! Great editing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is extremely clever and I have always thought a complete film could be made in this day and age from clips from other films and sown seamlessly together , this collaboration we can see not only the possibility, but the feasibility and together with it will mean fans will be popular .
Love it and hope there will be many more , what say you ?
Sean Connery was a real man and the perfect Bond.
Perhaps, but he did not know how to light a cigar properly.
Sean Connery was James Bond. All the rest were only playing Bond. IMO.
The original and best..The Bond
Real men wear wigs?
Seeing Clouseau's boss ( Herbert Lom) in this makes it seem like a crossover. Who's next? Edward Platt as Leiter's boss?
Sean Connery is so great at playing James Bond, he's even in character when not doing Bond! He made nearly 100 films, and won an Oscar Award as an actor. It's pointless to argue who was the best Bond.
Yesh Mish Moneypenny
No argument here 😊
Sean Connery was a greatactor and a great James 😂Bond.connery was Bond.😊
I beg to differ. Sean Connery undeniably did a great job as Bond up until Diamonds Are Forever, which, arguably was the worst Bond film.
The bad script didn't help, but Connery just wasn't into it. Never Say Never Again was better than Diamonds and, well, I'll just leave it at that. Well, one final note on Never - best scene was
Fatima Blush: "You know that making love to Fatima was the greatest pleasure of your life."
Connery: "Well to be perfectly honest, there was this girl in Philadelphia - "
Fatima Blush: "SHUT UP!!!"
Roger Moore WAS 007. From Live and Let Die to A View to a Kill.
This is NOT a Bond movie. It's called Woman of Straw with Gina Lollobrigida and Ralph Richardson.
I knew right away just from the title as all the Connery films had Ian Fleming titles, though they often did not really follow Fleming's story.
No, it's a mash up ...and not a very good one, of The Frightened City, from 1961, and Women of Straw from 1964, plus a couple of shots of Bernard Lee thrown in. Really poor.
If Tippi Hedren had turned up,it would have been a bit of MARNIE as well😁
I actually love MARNIE!
What a cast, Connery, Ralph Richardson, and Gina Lollabrigida. Such great fun!
And did I spot Herbert Lom?
@@nsnopper Trajedy is missing many good actors.
As others have noted, this footage is mostly taken from a 1964 film called Woman of Straw and has nothing to do with James Bond. Too bad, because I would have liked to have seen Gina as a Bond girl and Ralph Richardson as a Bond villain.
According to a book written about this film’s director, Sean and Gina did not get along well.
Not true, they got along really well!. In an interview Gina once said that Sean Connery was the most handsome, charming, talented, elegant & sexy man she had worked with & that his approach was very professional & elegant even in the kissing scenes, unlike many other actors she said!.
Why do they call him 007 then?
@@susymay7831 In the films and novels, the 00 prefix indicates Bond's discretionary "licence to kill", in executing his duties. Bond's number-007-was assigned by Fleming in reference to one of British naval intelligence's key achievements of the First World War: the breaking of the German diplomatic code.
@@susymay7831there's some clever dubbing of sound in this. It's Roger Moore's voice that says "Property of a Lady" in the scene with a Fabergé egg
@@susymay7831They combined clips of several actual Bond movies.
Terrific! A shaggy Bond story! I especially like "The "Frightened City" bits because I always thought Herbert Lom would have made an excellent Bond villain. Also for the other thing: James Bond belongs in the world of the Profumo Affair, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the early days of TV. No JB movie should ever be more recent than Harold MacMillan's resignation in October 1963.
Wish the latest Bond film was a lost Bond film. It should be lost and never found.
Still not as bad as SPECTRE
@cjvasta8756 All of Daniel Craig's Bond films,should have been lost. They were all CRAP! He was the worst Bond ever. I doubt the franchise had a future at all after he totally destroyed.
Sean Connery and Timothy Dalton best 007s.
Only "Risicio" and "Property Of A Lady" are the two Bond titles from Flemings stories not to be filmed.
@@stuartsharman3055 There is also “The Hildebrand Rarity” and “007 in New York”. Some would say an element or two from the first story found its way into “License to Kill” (1989) but I don’t see it.
@@stuartsharman3055 I never could stand Daniel Craig and can’t understand why anyone embraced him. He is nothing like Fleming’s creation-no panache, flamboyance, larger than life persona, NOTHING. He is good for portraying a Lithuanian hit man, but that’s about all.
Timothy Dalton was the best for me. If one reads Fleming’s novela “The Living Daylights”, it’s easy to see that the actor read and studied Bond by way of Fleming’s drafting of the character-his portrayal is absolutely spot on!
I’m also very partial to George Lazenby for similar reasons-he is very much in tuned to the 007 of Fleming’s excellent OHMSS novel.
Certainly got my attention -- as in, "How on earth?" Great job!!!
Sean Connery was an amazing actor RIP
Isle of Dr. No was 1962 so this came out 1 year before? or was made, and not released, but then they redid a new script as Dr. No? Fun fact: Dr. No has a twin brother named Dr. Yes, Julian Yes. He is a World renown Chef who had a show called Yes You Can Cook. Where he taught people how to cook his various dishes.
It's a little bit inconsistent with the colouring, but it had me fooled for a minute or so; therefore I can't really avoid the thumbs up, great fun!
You could cut this into a really nice two minute movie trailer! Lots of good shots to choose from. 🎥🍿
I enjoyed this very much, never ever seen any of these scenes before. Wo derful editing and i had no idea someof thus was colorized. Very entertaining and enjoyable, i wish ihad talent that could create something likd this. We all love Sean Connery as 007.
Super. Really looks like a bond film - but that probably says as much about Connery’s acting skills than the editing. He really was Bond in everything he did, wasn’t he?
He was a much better actor than simply playing 007❤
@doctordeej,,,,Not at all watch him as Pedlar Pascoe in "On The Fiddle" 1961 or as private Flanaganin "The Longest Day" 1962 Both are a Million Miles away from James Bond...
Yes, Connery put on James Bond like a suit of clothing. Completely amazing actor. He hit his stride as Bond.
Voisin Thierry France abientot je suis fans de James bond oo7 sous-titres en français ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Interesting edit. Hard to follow the plot but adding music from the bond films helped.
Sean Connery was such a handsome man...
@@winniem1989 HE WAS THE REAL BOND WITH HIS MANLY LOOKS

BRILLIANT ! Such time and effort and it sparkles! Made me laugh and also lean-in !!! You know your stuff Rumble Dog! Blessings from blighty ! X
This was very nicely done. You are to be applauded, sir for your fine work. Thoroughly enjoyed! Keep at it!
Hate to burst your bubble. But the 1983 Roger Moore bond movie Octopussy was based on Property of a Lady
Actually the film is two stories in one. Fleming’s novella “Octopussy” (where practically none of the story elements are used) and his short story “Property of a Lady” (where the Fabrege egg auction scene is concerned).
@@michaelschramm1064yes, you're right. I just linked The Faberge Egg auction in the film "Octopussy" and the written scene in of the same thing in "Property Of A Lady." Ide forgotten.
Is there enough here to make a complete movie ? This 20 minute short was a great appetizer of what could have been !!
I love all the old time James bond movies better than those made today Sean connery & roger moore were my favorite theyre both sauve & good looking may they both rest in peace thanks for posting them ❤❤❤🎉
I thought Roger Moore was gay. It seemed to me he was playing a gay 007. I couldn't stand his 007 performance though I enjoyed his Simon Templer performance in all of "The Saint" episodes.
Woman of Straw. And I remember those coal cranes on the Quay at Poole, long gone now. As kids, me and my mate, also saw the boat moored at the Quay.
Superb job. Great mini movie.
That was fun. Very well done, thanks!
I noticed that in some scenes the James Bond Character has a very up to date hairstyle that would fit in 2024.
good job old man... but wish you would have lifted 'I think he got the point' from Thunderball, when the baddie gets spiked!
With no new Bond movies on the horizon, this is as good as it's going to get(ha)!
I will be surprised if there is another new Bond movie made I the next 5yrs at least.
Daniel Craig totally destroyed the franchise.
It has totally lost its way.
But I would suggest they base the New Bond on the 007 novels of John Gardner starting with Licence Renewed. I want to see that Silver Beast he drove in it, his beautiful SAAB 900 Turbo. What a sight that would be to see.
? Bit and pieces do not a film make!
Amazing...Herbert Lom and Sir Ralph Richardson appear...Gina was in first Pink Panther, as Maharaja's daughter...and owner of the jewel, while Lom was in "Shot in the Dark" and the sequels...Tom Jones song Thunderball seems to be the theme... Character actors I've seen in the Avengers P. ?Macnee show... a Faberge egg, seen in "Octopussy." The spike/back death and devil mask above... Does look mediocre as ochre... Classical music for suspense at one point... Thanx! was in jamaica for '62 independence, August, months after "Dr. No" filmed... Manyway...And who played Dr. Yes in Get Smart...and delusional Tut in Batman? Not Roger C. Carmel...who was in 2 Star Treks as a flamboyant crook, Mudd? Blit blored. Eric Blore...another fave... See Q Planes and The Wrong Box for Sir Ralph, also a crooked minister impersonator, early 30s...Old Dark House? while Lom was in so much as a villain in '50s...
This is horrible. Taking random snippets of film and dubbing a few seconds of dialogue from Bond films with a smattering of Bond music do not make a watchable video. Especially not for 22+ minutes. It’s pure torture.
You’re right, of course. But I don’t think the idea was to make a James Bond movie. The idea was to get some footage of the young Sean Connery and splice it together. No attempt for cohesive plot. There are lots of Sean Connery movies featuring him in his 40s 50s and 60s. I think he did well to string together Sean Connery at what? Age 33?
Hopefully Hollywood would use Connery s face as AI and make more bond films it could be done! Start the first novel casino Royale
No. Don't do this.
Great idea!!!
Bloody click bait!!! 😠😠😠😠😠😠 Lost Bond film my arse!
Pre gadgets. From a cut room floor. It's still 22:43 better than the garage that is pushed today.
What is this rubbish? A miss match
of a couple of old British movies.
This is not a bond film ,they edited it with the music
Good stuff.Thanks for posting!
This is The Woman of Straw, films right after From Russia With Love. Part of the movie-package deal Cubby-Harry offered Sean.
Fantastic terrific love it more on here please goddess of love ❤
Nice try, but this is just an edit of other Connery films, including Woman of Straw with GIna Lollabrigida. How could there be footage from Goldfinger and Thunderball in 1961?
Why don't you all lighten up most of you like it the guy's just trying to have fun why don't you take a pill or something, Go have a beer Or glass of milk could go play in traffic
Dialogues and scenes are lifted from Woman of Straw and many other movies, including other Bond movies; perhaps AI-assisted make over to look like a Bond film.
-- Claiming it as a lost movie from 1961 is total fabrication and misinformation.
(Thumbs down for that patent lie)
Great job and full of atmosphere! No real plot, but still head and shoulders above No Time To Die!
No Time To Die was not a proper James Bond film. It was a mess.
I'm Thinking 🤔 Perhaps with Today's Technology some one ( Peter Jackson?) could Enhance this with A I and digital editing an SFX and Create a New Bond film with all the be
I’m confused. Why didn’t this make it on to the big screen
🙄
suport respect movie made 007 the property of a lady........SAalout.........!
These scenes are from "Woman of Straw." Connery plays a conniving nephew of a wealthy man who uses Gina Lolobrigida to marry the man then steal his money. I saw this movie in the theater in 1964. People REALLY should do more research.
I guess you didn't read the description box.
Gina can be a convincing Vesper
She should have be!!!!! But now she is definitely the first and most beautiful Bond girl!!!!!!!!!
Gina Lollobrigida 😮
Basil Dearden's "Woman of Straw" ( 1964 ).
with the BEST Classical music for a Soundtrack!!!!!!!
"The Property of a Lady” was not written by Ian Fleming. It is actually a novel by Elizabeth Adler. Ian Fleming was also outraged by someone who dared to copy his James Bond creation and wanted the film destroyed! However, Ian Fleming (in his childish spite) used the same title, “The Property of a Lady,” to write a short story featuring his fictional secret agent James Bond.
It is Portrait of a Lady on the film title 4:25
@@douglaskercher6948
The producer wanted to retitle the film to "Portrait of a Lady". However, the film was shelved before its release date!
This is Woman of Straw 1964 spliced up (annoyingly) with something else. Connery looks different in different scenes.
YES YOU ARE RIGHT
yup....actually its 'The Frightened City' (1961) nothing to do with 007, or any part of it !
This is funny, a hodgepodge of other Sean Connery films all having nothing to do with James Bond. The things people do to get someone anyone to look at something.
I call it clickbaiting to get you to watch. PT Barnum said it best, 😂
@@richardbrowning8221 "There's a sucker born every minute."
Lazenby wasn't bad as Bond, but Connery has the edge. No one else does Bond justice.
Connery, the best,Graig the worst
Maravillosa unica inolvidable me encantaria verla completa en español gracias Sonia G Nielsen👏👏👏👏
CHEATERS! Woman of Straw etc. Well, i was fooled.
This is completely nonsensical.
Reminds me of Austin Powers 3 with edited together clips of four Michael Caine movies to give the backstory of Austin, his dad and Dr Evil.
Most of those clips was from Caine's South Africa anti Apartheid adventure
SHAME as this was rather interesting and the very first BOND girl is a stunner
The question is how many films was used to put this silly thing together!
Gina Lollobrigida and Yvonne Romain. What a treat.
Nice pastiche. Next do “Per Fine Ounce” the lost Geoffrey Jenkins Bond script
IMPRESSIVE. VERY!! 💚💚💚💚 💚💚💚
I nteresting film intro was written “Portrait of a lady” not “property “ also a few seconds later the voice that said “ property of a lady” was actually Roger Moore’s voice, not Sean Connery’s..
FAKE is the NEW OLD REAL ?
I also think Daniel Craig would have made a great Bond villain.
No, he's too Bondly.
He did, he destroyed both:
Bond - the character
Bond - the franchise
😆
He wasn’t born back then.
Looks like the set to the beginning of "Thunderball."
Portrait of a Lady ….. Not The property of a Lady and it was filmed in 1964 not 61 , The script was written in 1961 and the film was going to be a detective movie not a bond movie but changed later due to a script rewrite that was never finished due to Issues with the Fleming Family’s copyright laws on the Books . Then literally over night Sean Connery was asked to do From Russia with love and the Movie was dropped for a Better Script of the Book From Russia with love, Sean agreed as long as he was allowed to do other projects with any other studio , All Parties agreed. The rest is History. Seans salary was paid for the unfinished movie and double the salary for Russia with love, Because he had to drop out of Cleopatra so Richard Burton took his role instead. I would also add most of the clips were nothing to do with Portrait of a Lady but clips from other films added to make it look better,
The VERY lost Bond film... Property, er, Portrait of a Lady 😅
That's Woman of Straw, got it on DVD
Each actor added their own flare to Bond they were all good but yes nobody was like Sean
Splendid!
Hollywood film. Woman of stra.sean Connery. Gina Lolo Brigida. Novel English. Same name. First shot. Is last one. Vv. Thanks. 29624. India. Maharashtra.

Oh my! I knew "La donna di paglia" But I was falling in your fake with shoes and everyhing!
I am both happy and yet saddened by this as always Sean was the True Bond . An era left behind never to be held again .
c'mon, it's a joke)) a lot of sequences from Woman of Straw (1964) mixed up with bond theme. who r u cheatting))))
