“ELLIPSIS” was the code to the security at the airport which the bomber used to gain access in the 2006 James Bond film “Casino Royal” starring Daniel Craig. Which, imo, is the best ever James Bond movie by the way; closely flowed by “Skyfall”.

I would also credit Casino Royal (2006) with having the best Bond opening scene, best opening musical score and/with the best title sequence.

In fact here they are for your assessment and enjoyment:

@diver - best opening musical score...

In my world, nothing touches Shirley Bassey's "Goldfinger",

Apologies for creating a sideline to your thread Sir; it just popped into my mind with your “ellipsis”, hope you don’t mind.

Also I loved your rescue cat thread 👏🏻
