A View to a Kill (1985)
The "real" Bond # 14 is Roger Moore's last. The plot starts out being about race horses and ends up about computer chips. Christopher Walken plays an industrialist and Soviet sleeper agent gone rouge, super model Grace Jones is his chief henchwoman. Former TV spy Partrick Macness from The Avengers assists Bond for a bit, and Tanya Roberts, now best known as Midge Pinciotti on That 70's Show is a Bond girl. Exotic locations include Siberia, France, and the San Francisco Bay area. There is a scene where the bad guys start a fire at San Francisco City Hall, to be able to film this scene the production had to coordinate with the then mayor Dianne Feinstein and she and Sir Roger Moore became friends, true story. Duran Duran did the theme song. This is a better movie then Octopussy. ***
