Facts about

Ian Fleming didn't originally like the casting of Sean Connery as James Bond. Bond was English and Connery was Scottish, Bond was upper-class and Connery was working-class, Bond was refined and educated and Connery was too rugged. After seeing the film, Fleming softened and decided that Connery was perfectly cast. In the novel "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," Bond was revealed to have Scottish ancestry and Bond's girlfriend Tracy Vicenzo was described with Ursula Andress' details. Ironically, in the movie version of On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Bond and Tracy are played by George Lazenby and Diana Rigg who do not fit these descriptions.
Location manager Chris Blackwell (who was uncredited) was later the founder of Island Records. He is also the son of Blanche Blackwell who was neighbor, friend and lover of James Bond creator Ian Fleming. He makes a cameo in the film as the tall blond man dancing at Puss Feller's club. Blackwell would later own Ian Fleming's Goldeneye estate after 1977 - one of its previous owners was reggae musician Bob Marley.
After viewing the film, "James Bond" creator Ian Fleming reportedly described it as being, "Dreadful. Simply dreadful."
