12 Things You Learn Rewatching Diamonds Are Forever
12. There's Some "Accidental" Nudity
Despite the Bond movies typically keeping the adult content to a discreet minimum for the sake of those family-friendly box office bucks, Diamonds Are Forever managed to somehow slip not one but two instances of topless nudity past the censors.
The first instance occurs during the pre-title sequence, where Bond (Sean Connery) rips off a female assailant's top, revealing her bare breasts for a few fractions of a second. Also, when Plenty O'Toole's (Lena Wood) corpse is discovered in the swimming pool later on, her shirt is entirely see-through, leaving virtually nothing to the imagination.
These moments are easily missed, especially if you haven't seen the movie on Blu-ray, but director Guy Hamilton, the sly devil, nevertheless managed to make this the raciest Bond movie as a result.
