Bond Girl Gemma Arterton Covered in Oil for 'Quantum of Solace'
Monday, October 6, 2008 at 5:07AM
It turns out that
Quantum of Solace isn't completely ditching the
old James Bond ways. After learning that 007
would not introduce himself with
the famous "Bond, James Bond," and that he would no longer order a dry vodka
martini, shaken not stirred, it looked as though Bond was not interested in his
rear-view mirror.
But in the new film,
Gemma
Arterton, who plays an MI6 agent like Bond, is, killed by the baddies
(under the direction of
Mathieu Amalric). I'd call that a spoiler, but
since these photos were published...I don't think we can come to any other
conclusion.

That is some carbon footprint she's leaving. Bondphiles will notice the extreme similarity to one of
the unforgettable images in the spy's movie history, that of Jill Masterson's
dead body painted in gold in Goldfinger. The $300 an ounce body covering
has changed to oil for Quantum of Solace, although I don't suspect Agent
Fields died wrestling another woman in a swimming pool filled with the stuff.
Would that it were, though...

Says Arterton of her fateful day, "I couldn’t move. I
couldn’t see, I couldn’t breathe or hear because it went in my ears. It was
unpleasant, but it’s something I’ll always remember and it will be an iconic
part of the film."
