James Bond in Bratislava- (Artistic licence 3) Print E-mail

James Bond returns to Austria in his new movie Quantum Solace. Not for the first time. In the movie Living Daylights (1987), the most famous British secret agent saves the world not only in Vienna but supposedly also in neighboring Bratislava. Living Daylights with Timothy Dalton in role of Bond was shot before 1989 when Czecho-Slovakia was still under the communist regime. Therefore, all scenes from Bratislava were actually shot in Vienna. (Funny like the situation twisted completely ten years later during shooting The Peacemaker )

This is a third part of our micro-series about international movies related to Bratislava (visit also articles about Hostel and The Peacemaker for other stories).
