...Cubby, making Bond a family business meant a personal touch--cooking spaghetti for cast and crew or flying an actor's hair stylist in on the Concorde. "He was a Big Daddy figure," says Lois Chiles (Holly Goodhead in Moonraker). But the Mr. Nice Guy routine stopped at the office door. "You felt that he was on your side," says Lois Maxwell, who played Miss Moneypenny in the first 14 films. "Except when it came to the money. Then he'd fight with your agent for every last penny...

Although Chiles lacks the believability of a Barbara Bach, she proves herself fatihful to the 007 credo by quickly falling for the British Spy after he rescues them both from the iron-trap mouth of Jaws. ("Do you know him?" she asks naively when she first sights the killer. "His name is Jaws," 007 cooly answers, "He kills people.")

...Jungle of the Cities should be more than a well-acted mood piece with occasional flares of brilliance. It is regrettable that the Agassiz company saw fit to drop their imaginative critical judgment and stand with unquestioning awe in the temple of Brecht. The Goodhead himself probably thumbs his nose in the Holy of Holies...
