Oskar Werner

Sadly, both his decline as an actor and eventually his death of a heart attack in 1984 were caused by many years of excessive drinking. In 1995, Ursula Andress was chosen by Empire magazine as one of the "100 Sexiest Stars in film history.". Werner also played the murderer opposite Peter Falk in an episode of the Columbo TV series entitled "Playback" (1975). In 1980 she had a son with actor Harry Hamlin. Other starring roles were in The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, Fahrenheit 451, and The Shoes of the Fisherman. Derek then went on to marry the Andress look-alike, Bo Derek. He was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in 1965 for Ship of Fools. The marriage ended in divorce in 1966.

In 1961 he starred in François Truffaut's Jules et Jim, and became an international star as a result. She was married only once, in 1957 to actor/director John Derek. In 1951 he starred in the English language movie Decision Before Dawn, in which he played a German prisoner of war who spies for his captors. No, but she used her own voice in Casino Royale. Born Oskar Josef Bschliessmayer in Vienna, he was an Austrian stage actor, starring in the William Shakespeare repertoire, until his film debut in Der Engel mit der Posaune in 1948. Her heavy accent was dubbed over by Monica Van Der Syl in Dr. Oskar Werner (November 13, 1922 - October 23, 1984) was an Austrian actor. Andress co-starred with Elvis Presley in the 1963 film, Fun in Acapulco and she also appeared in the parody Bond movie Casino Royale (1967) as Vesper Lynd, occasional spy, who persuades Evelyn Tremble (Peter Sellers) to carry out a mission.

"No," replies Bond, admiring her suntanned body barely covered in a white bikini, "I'm just looking." (The combination of sea, shells, and a stunning blonde has led some critics to trace the inspiration for this scene to Botticelli's Birth of Venus). "Looking for shells?". "What are you doing here?" she asks. No became one of the most famous Bond moments. Rising out of the Caribbean Sea singing a beautiful Calypso and tossing back her blonde hair, she spots Bond.

Her stunning good looks served her well, as her introduction in Dr. No (1962), the first James Bond film. Fluent in English, French, Italian, German and Swiss-German, she appeared as "Honey Ryder", James Bond's object of desire in Dr. Andress was a major sex symbol of the 1960s.
