NEIL CONNERY

OPERATION KID BROTHER

DANIELLA BIANCI     ADOLFO CELI    ANTHONY DAWSON

with BERNARD LEE    & LOIS MAXWELL  

This spoof secret agent film stars Sean Connery's brother Neil Connery as well as a host of familiar faces from the Eon Bond films:   Adolfo Celi (Emilio Largo in Thunderball); Anthony Dawson (Professor Dent in Dr.No / Blofeld in From Russia With Love &  Thunderball); Daniella Bianci (Tatiana Romanova in From Russia With Love) ; and amazingly Eon Bond film regulars Bernard Lee ( M) & Lois Maxwell ( Miss Moneypenny).

The producers have really tried to capitalise on the whole secret agent franchise of the time with a tongue-in-cheek story to rival any Bond film and a Music Score (by Ennio Morricone ) and title song ("Man For Me" by Christy) to rival those of the 60's. This is a far better Bond Spoof than Casino Royale (1967) and is infinitely more watchable. This film is mentioned on the commentaries of one of the early Eon Bond films, and it is certainly worth a mention. Both Bernard Lee and Lois Maxwell reprise their roles (under different names, of course) and have far more to do in the picture than they would normally.

Synopsis

The evil crime syndicate Thanatos is bent on taking over the world, using a magnetic wave generator that will cause all metal-based machinery to grind to a halt. However, the well-known British secret agent normally assigned to such tasks isn't available, so they engage his civilian brother, Neil, to help. Neil, played by Neil Connery, is a world-class plastic surgeon, hypnotist, and lip-reader, which turn out to be precisely the skills required for thwarting Thanatos.
