The Scene: Even the good guys can’t resist being bad boys in Vegas.
For James Bond’s one and only visit to the Strip, Sean Connery puts his world-saving exploits on hold to behave like a lothario lounge singer.
He's so blasé about the whole 'what happens in Vegas' thing a minor set-too with local law enforcement escalates into a city-wide fender-bender and more wanton destruction of civic property.
So Money Shot: The best stunt comes at 3.44 as Bond escapes the cops by driving two-wheeled down a narrow alley.
But the biggest pleasure here is seeing this rather aimless and low-speed chase filmed against the glare of all that garish neon.
It wouldn't work anywhere else; here it makes a twisted kind of sense.
