Honey Ryder

When she emerged in a white bikini from the surf in "Dr. No,” not only James Bond proved to be mesmerized by the sight of Honey Ryder- theater audiences were do mihralled. The 1962 film was the first 007 epic to hit theater screens, and it became an international box-office smash. Aside from the obvious appeal of Scan Connery’s performance as Bond, there can be no understating the impact Ursula Andress as Honey. Andress set the standard for all the Bond women who followed Honey had qualities that were virtually unheard of in screen heroines wi that time. She was courageous, independent and erotic. Bond encountered Honey on the idand of Crab Key off the coast of lamaica. She became a valued aly of 007’s as he Brish agent attempted to thwart the evil Dr. No’s plans to topple American missiles from his secret, fortress-like headquarters. Ursula Andress almost turned down this role, in which she made her screen debut. She eventually accepted because she wanted a free trip to lamaica. She became an instant sex symbol throughout the world, and an impressive film career followed. Although it has been many years since the release of "Dr. No,” Ursula Andress remains a fond favorite of all James Bond fans. In 1996, she made a triumphant return to the island of Jamaica for the first time since 1962, to attend a 007 festival and caused a media sensation. Like her on-screen alter ego, Honey Ryder, Ursula Andress has an honored place among the legendary ladies of James Bond.
