Sir Roger Moore (opens in a new tab)‘s last outing as James Bond was definitely not his finest hour, although it is memorable for a few reasons, including Christopher Walken (opens in a new tab)‘s turn as the psychotic bad guy (Max Zorin), Duran Duran’s great title theme (opens in a new tab) and the appearance of the incomparable Grace Jones (opens in a new tab) as Mayday, Zorin’s accomplice. She may not be the greatest actress but she’s never anything less than a striking presence and is definitely not a lady to mess with, as British chat show presenter Russell Harty (opens in a new tab) infamously found out (opens in a new tab).

This US one sheet features imagery from the climactic fight atop the Golden Gate Bridge (opens in a new tab) in San Francisco, which sees Bond and Stacey Sutton (Tanya Roberts (opens in a new tab)) face off against Zorin and his henchmen in the Zorin Industries airship. Special effects supervisor John Richardson filmed a series of sequences featuring stunt performers on top of the actual bridge that were later matched up against green-screen shots of the actors. This was the first Bond film to have its premiere held outside the UK; it opened on the 22nd of May, 1985 at San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts (opens in a new tab).

The artwork is by American poster artist Dan Goozee who was also responsible for a few Bond posters, including Moonraker and Octopussy, as well as several other classic posters from the 1980s. See the other designs I’ve collected by him.
