 This was the first Bond film to be based on one of  Ian Fleming (I) (qv)s short stories (instead of one of his  novels). Interestingly, there are several scenes in this film lifted  from other Fleming tales. Examples: The assault on the smugglers  boat and warehouse is lifted intact from a short story entitled  "Risico", and the sequence featuring Bond and Melina being dragged  through the coral is actually lifted from the climax from the book,  "Live and Let Die". The Identigraph appeared in slightly different  form in the book, "Goldfinger".
