Got to meet the lovely Martine Beswick yesterday. She has very fond memories of making this film, and working with the likes of Kinski, Volonté, Castel and Damiani. A very friendly lady with a great sense of humour and plenty of stories to tell. She really loved these high quality stills of her I managed to capture myself, since there’s not much out there.

My friend @sarahvista was also there, who even asked her about John the Bastard. It’s great to ask about these films, as Martine is mainly known for being a Bond Girl.

What a lovely treat to meet Martine … was it a specialist film festival event ?

Love the picture of her trying on her new hat with cigar … really in character.

It was actually a charity event in London with celebrity signings. Caroline Munro was there, who is always amazing to meet. Along with many more people, mainly from Bond, Hammer and Star Wars films.

Oh yeah, Martine was also very surprised when I told her Damiani didn’t consider it a Western, haha.
