So, 'Lesson #007: Close Quarters Combat' is this intriguing short doc from 1971 that dives into the behind-the-scenes of that elevator fight scene in 'Diamonds are Forever.' The atmosphere is gritty and raw, almost like you’re peeking into a secret world of stunt work and choreography that many don’t get to see. The pacing is brisk; it’s not a lengthy watch, but it packs a punch, showing the practical effects and the sheer physicality involved. What stands out is that it offers a glimpse into the craftsmanship behind the spectacle, with performers really putting themselves on the line. If you enjoy deep dives into production nuances, this one is a little gem worth noting.
This documentary holds a unique position in collector circles, as it’s not widely available and often overlooked. It’s mainly found on obscure compilations or specialty releases, which adds to its allure. The scarcity of copies means it can be a bit tough to track down, and those who appreciate the craftsmanship of fight choreography and stunt work tend to seek it out for their collections.
