Giving four stars is actually a bit selfish. One extra star is given to the "Bond Girl" Tatina Romanova (played by Daniela Bianchi) because she is so beautiful. It is the orthodox beauty with blond, blue eyes and fair skin that is most in line with the traditional aesthetics.
The overall plot of "Love from Russia" is quite satisfactory. The biggest highlight is to find a Bond girl who is really beautiful enough, even if the latecomers include Jane Seymour, Sophie Marceau and Eva Green, etc. Beauty, she is definitely enough to rank in the top five among the previous generations of Bang girls in terms of beauty alone.
Just like Hani in "Dr. No" contributed a classic shot of a white bikini out of water, Tatina also has enough shots to show her beauty in this film. From the scene where he took off his jacket on the first appearance, to meeting Bond on the ship with a light blue veil, including lying down in a carriage full of flowers when he finally escaped, it was beautiful until the end.
Although Tatina is set as an intelligence officer sent by the Soviet Union, she is not actually a "professional", but more like a beautiful volunteer chosen to deal with Bond. So she naturally didn't help Bond in the movie, let alone completing the task-to some extent, it seems that she opened the era of the Bond girl "vase".
But her beauty really deserves an extra star, and everyone should appreciate beauty.
