James Bond girls are often victims rescued by
Bond, fellow agents or allies, villainesses or members of
an enemy organisation; sometimes, as with many ‘pool’ scenes,
they are mere eye candy and have no direct involvement in
Bond’s mission.
The role of a Bond girl is typically a high-profile part
that can give a major boost to the career of unestablished
actresses (for example Jane Seymour, Rosamund Pike), although
there have been a number of Bond girls that were well-established
prior to gaining their role (for example Honor Blackman,
Diana Rigg, Halle Berry).
