#143. You Only Live Twice


You Only Live Twice (6 Hours): When Ernst Stavro Blofeld blasts into eternity the girl James Bond has married only hours before, the heart and zest for life goes out of Bond. Incredibly, from being a top agent of the Secret Service, he goes to pieces and is even on the verge of becoming a security risk.

M, unwilling to lose his best man, is persuaded to give him one last chance: an impossible mission far removed from his usual duties. Bond heads to Japan and a mysterious residence known as the "Castle of Death", where he encounters an old enemy and, perhaps, his own end at last.
