Sean Connery returned to his 007 tuexdo (following George Lazenby’s one-shot stint) for this 1971 adventure, as James Bond deals again with archenemy Blofeld (Charles Gray) and dallies with lush lovelies played by Jill St. John and Lana Wood (the latter’s character appropriately named Plenty O’Toole), plus a dynamite theme song composed by John Barry warbled by Shirley Bassey. This Las Vegas-based espionage entry sometimes veers too closely into Dean Martin’s Matt Helm turf, but as The New York Times’ Vincent Canby concluded 40 years ago, “It’s a movie to play hookey for,” a wry assessment that holds true today. Rome’s Capitol Theatre, 220 W. Dominick St., will screen a 35mm print of this fun flick on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2:30 and 7 p.m. Admission is $5.50 for adults, $1.50 for children. For details, call 337-6453.
