Her stoic beauty-and the Bond notorietypropelled her career in the 1960s, with such credits as 4 for Texas, Fun in Acapulco (both 1963, the latter with Elvis Presley), She, What's New, Pussycat?, The Tenth Victim (all 1965), The Blue Max (1966), and Casino Royale (1967), but by the 1970s she had exhausted her appeal and showed little but her epidermis in The Sensuous Nurse (1976) and Slaves of the Cannibal God (1978). Once married to actor John Derek (with whom she costarred in 1965's Nightmare in the Sun she met much younger hunk Harry Hamlin on the set of Clash of the Titans (1981) and later bore his child. |

| Hey Ursula How are you. I have seen you in Dr no (whats with the voice over?) and Casino Royale and I have to say your a great actor. Which one of your movies are you most proud of? Do you still act? Are you involved with any movies at the moment? Best regards Mark | |
