the fifth film in the bond series, you only live twice is unique for two reasons. firstly, james bond gets married and secondly we are introduced to ernst stavro blofeld in the flesh, played menacingly by donald pleasance in a screenplay by roald dahl (famous for his children's books and short stories), directed by lewis gilbert. also memorable for it's incredible 400,000 gbp set of blofeld's operational base, complete with the rocket launcher, helicopter landing pad, monorail and massive gutter to give it the camouflage of a crater lake and of course for 'q's' invention 'little nellie' - a one man miniature helicopter used in some of the most exciting combat scenes during 007's reconnaissance flights over the japanese islands.
