The Nurse' (1979)' - Blu-Ray pre-order available from
Amaozn UK - £19:80
Release date: February 26
"From the producers of ‘Doctor Zhivago’ comes a film that finally reveals URSULA ANDRESS in all her glory!
Voted the TOP BOND GIRL of all time, Ursula Andress made cinematic history when she emerged from the sea in that bikini. Not only was this iconic scene crowned "No1 of the 100 Greatest Sexy Screen-Moments†and earned Andress a Golden Globe, but it heralded a new generation of women who wanted and expected more: the 'sexual revolution' had started.
Ever wondered what she looks like without that bikini? Well, wonder no more and reach for The Nurse! Andress stars as The Sensuous Nurse, spending most of this romp-com undressed.
Screen legend Jack Palance (City Slickers) plays an American tycoon aiming to buy a vineyard in the beautiful Italian Veneto. But the hitch is that the aging owner won't sign, despite his madcap family's eagerness to sell and get rich.
The old man, recovering from a bonk-induced heart attack, is a randy lecher. So, the family's outrageous stratagem is to hire Nurse Andress, not to cure the old boy, but for her to... ahem... undress and, hopefully, induce another - this time fatal - cardiac arrest.
It's all barmy, fizzy fun, and the clincher? A SECOND Bond Girl! Luciana Paluzzi, the one in skin-tight black leathers on the rocket launching motorbike in 'Thunderball’. Here without leathers. Or anything."
