Carlo Ponti

Ursula Andress (Dr No; Mountain Of The Cannibal God; She) has been voted the top Bond girl of all time, making her mark on cinema in the famous Dr No scene with that bikini. Well, if youÂ’ve ever wondered what sheÂ’d look like without the bikini, then reach for Shameless Screen EntertainmentÂ’s release of The Nurse (LÂ’infermiera! Literally: Andress is undressed for most part of this pun-filled romp-com. Jack Palance (Batman; Tango And Cash) plays a mean offbeat American tycoon looking to buy a vineyard in the beautiful Tuscan hills. The old Italian owner, a randy lecher who is convalescing from his last bonk-induced heart-attack, doesnÂ’t want to sell, even if his madcap family does. The family hires the gorgeous Nurse, Ursula Andress to Â… ahemÂ… undress and give the old man another Â– and they hope fatal Â– cardiac arrest! All barmy, fizzy fun and the clincher Â– this is the only non-Bond franchise with a second Bond girl! ThunderballÂ’s stunning leather-clad biker, Luciana Paluzzi (The Green Slime) stars here without leathersÂ… or anything! This release will mark the first DVD release of The Nurse in the UK!
