You Only Live Twice (1971r) - FRAMED

An original 1971 re-release United Artists Black and White Publicity Still #YLT-15, framed.

Sean Connery as James Bond in the film's Japanese setting.

Tiger Tanaka, head of the Japanese secret service, was played by Tetsurō Tamba, one of the busiest stars in Japanese cinema, whose career ran to some three hundred films. For Western audiences of 1967, three years after the Tokyo Olympics, the film was a first glimpse of a modern Japan of bullet-fast trains, neon and sleek design, with the Hotel New Otani standing in for the headquarters of the villainous Osato. It did much to shape how a generation abroad imagined the country.
