#NowWatching #ModestyBlaise again, as if it'll make sense THIS time.

Oh, who am I kidding, I'm not watching it for the plot. I'm just watching attractive people smoke cigarettes and kill bad guys.

Has a very #ModestyBlaise (comic strip version) feel, which is always a good thing

I researched a typeface similar to the original 1969 film.
Modesty Blaise is my favorite comic series and inspired my own character, Valentine.

Inking Modesty Blaise and her loyal lieutenant Willie Garvin. I’ve been looking forward to this as a warm up for my next commission of Modesty for a while now. #modestyblaise

#LaraCroftTombRaider was on the telly tonight, and couldn't help but think as I briefly watched it that Angelina Jolie and Daniel Craig would've made an excellent pairing as #ModestyBlaise and Willie Garvin back in the day. 📽️🎞️

I'd still sell my soul for a decent film (or streaming series) adaptation of #ModestyBlaise. I just don't understand why no one's getting it done given the hard-on that Hollywood has for comic book IPs at the moment. 😕 The fact there's a strong sexy female lead character should be reason enough! 📽️🎞️

Which is a bit of a shame since Terence Stamp would've certainly made for a decent Willie Garvin if they had just decided to play it straight. Even Monica Vitti probably would've worked with DARK hair despite the Italian accent. A missed opportunity for sure! #ModestyBlaise 📽️🎞️
Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). On the left a slightly smiling dark haired woman (Monica Vitti as Modesty Blaise) wearing a purple dress and a black jacket resting her left arm on a statue.

Close-up of a bare chested brown haired man (Terence Stamp as Willie Garvin) kneeling next to a bed (on the left) and looking at a naked brown haired woman (Tina Aumont as Nicole) lying in the bed. The blanket's covering her from the waist down and there's a tray on her chest covering her breasts. Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). Close-up of a dark haired man (Terence Stamp as Willie Garvin) wearing a teal shirt and trousers and a fair haired woman (Monica Vitti as Modesty Blaise) wearing a white flowy dress. They're standing back to back on a rocky hillside. He's facing the left and she's facing the right. Both are holding pistols.

And while I'm aware that #ModestyBlaise wasn't the ONLY spy(-ish) film in the 60s to go down the spoof/lighter in tone route (e.g. Matt Helm and Harry Palmer films, Our Man Flint and In Like Flint), here even the comedic elements don't work. 📽️🎞️
Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). Close-up of a brown haired man (Michael Craig as Paul Hagen) wearing a white collared shirt sitting at a table resting his right hand on the right leg of a brown haired woman (Monica Vitti as Modesty Blaise) wearing a black bodysuit and leather boots lying on the table on the right. Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). View of an empty parking lot with two cars circling on it with smoke emiting from both cars. On the left a light greenish Citroën ID 19 emiting purple smoke and on the right a black Cadillac Fleetwood emiting yellowish smoke. Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966).

A leg and a hand of a woman appearing from behind a partially opened steel door. The leg's resting on the latch of the door. The forefinger is making a come hither motion.

I had genuinely forgotten how dreadful the 60s #ModestyBlaise film adaptation actually was! 😐 It just has SO little to do with anything that made the comic strip so great. 📽️🎞️
Poster for the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). Based on the comic strip of the same name by Peter O'Donnell. Directed by Joseph Losey. Starring Monica Vitti, Terence Stamp, Dirk Bogarde, Harry Andrews, Michael Craig, Clive Revill and Rossella Falk. Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). A dark haired man (Terence Stamp as Willie Garvin) wearing a white and green checkered shirt and black trousers and a fair haired woman (Monica Vitti as Modesty Blaise) wearing a fuchsia dress and a really long purple tie standing on a street at night. There's a brown barrel organ on the right edge of the frame. A rundown brick building on the background. Frame from the spy comedy 'Modesty Blaise' (1966). Close-up of two men playing a backgammon.

Modesty Blaise
Modesty Blaise, a secret agent whose hair color, hair style, and mod clothing change at a snap of her fingers is being used by the British government as a decoy in an effort to thwart a diamond heist. She is being set up by the feds but is wise to the plot and calls in sidekick Willie Garvin and a few other friends to outsmart them. Meanwhile, at his island hideaway, Gabriel, the diamond thief has his own plans for Blaise and Garvin.
