Quantum Of Solace - New BOND! Tosca Opera Scene Bregenz

[mrWilltraven]

Does anyone know whether Tosca's storyline has any significance to Quantum of Solace? It'd be a trivial detail but i love it when they reference other works for good reason and I haven't seen the opera myself...

[y2kjericho86]

Ohhhh i want to hold my OWN little meeting in an opera!!!!! Have my little evil council!!!

[jamesbond0078857]

What are they communicating through?

[frisco1968]

@jamesbond0078857

through a sort of tiny bluetooth headset

[PUNISHERWarzone87]

Craig has the cold hardeness of Connery and the rebelious streak of Timothy Dalton. Hes great as James Bond.

[ElTuco84]

Very reminiscent of Godfather III.

[tdelamont]

I think QoS gets knocked unfairly. Casino Royale was so brilliant that anything after was going to suffer. This scene ranks as one of the best in the entire franchise. Aside from the absolutely wretched theme music (and I thought it couldn't get worse than Madonna) and some overly herky-jerky action scene editing, this movie still comes off better than any of the Brosnan films.

[mavenous22]

@tdelamont

Completely agree, hopefully they can capture the feel of the 60's Bond films as well as the tone that was set up in the previous two outings. Craig and Connery are on the same level IMO...hopefully Mendes can knock Bond 23 out of the park. MGM needs to bail themselves out of chapter 11

[palser30]

I love the fact that the actor playing British minister Guy Haines (the guy at 49 seconds who says "I'm working on that") also plays the idiotic father in Channel 4's 'Friday Night Dinner'.

[hugodrax71]

not the greatest Bond film but certainly one of the great Bond scenes...truly brilliant

pls support me!!! worldwide!!! like it Button

for next JB 007 Movie

[Animation517]

I would admit that I did agree with the critics that it was pretty bad for a Bond film but this scene was the best part.

[FightAgainstFascism]

bregenz :D

[ElisabettaVS]

Too bad that in reality not all the men at that place wear bow ties or even suits!

[erman777]

''How much more pipeline do we need? I delay 2000 kilometers''

[angcortez]

Too bad this rendition of 'Va Tosca" didn't make the soundtrack!

[Geytkeypur]

Tre Sbirri Una Carrozza

ACT 1: Finale

[TheSilverAce]

Well, Tosca isn't for everyone...

[simplydiego001]

"Can i offer an opinion, i really think you people should find a better place to meet"

class.

[Muse00333]

To be honest why are people blaming Daniel Craig so much? Shouldn't it be the friggin directors fault the film turned out ot be so damn different and unbondish? Srly..... Marc Foster is horrible why would anyone hire an Bourne Director for a Bond film??

[iansquared3]

this really has to be one of my favorite bond scenes of all time. it incorporates all the best things: Gadgets, well tailored suits, a crazy gun fight, an opera house, and great music. very good scene

[memnondagreat1]

quantum is really FUCKING secret organization.......

[memnondagreat1]

bolivia must be top priority

[PrinsTan]

ironic choice for an opera

[flaviomazzetto]

tosca isn't for everyone! huahuahauha

[vipjan12]

coolest scene, does anyone have the whole scene when bond and greene meet up ?

[Muh1000]

I was so excited when i heard that the film is set in bregenz, my home city XD

But what irritated me, was that there was an Airport in Bregenz... we don't even have enough place for an airport XD

[Rockwildon]

whats the name of this song?...

[BlueCougar]

@Rockwildon It's not a song, it's an opera. "Tosca" by Giacomo Puccini, written in 1900. But I give you that, arena music hasn't traveled far since then...

[kcorym]

im loving this secret organisation stuff in the new films, bond needs a nemesis. Though i wander who the canadian is?

[TalentSpotter83]

@kcorym The Canadian is the Corrine lady we see at the end of the film with Yusef Kabira, Vesper's ex-boyfriend who ensared women only to fake being in danger so they'd give up valuable intelligence.

[kcorym]

@TalentSpotter83  Oh yer! lol, cheers

[Bluehawk2008]

Most bizarre performance of Tosca I've ever seen.

[clarksc1988]

Agreed.

[Dressingown]

The whole Tosca scenes from start to finish are my favourite from this movie, they were wonderfully original especially for a Bond film. I never understood where all the negativity for this film is justified. The worse you could say about it is that it's rushed, some of the acting from Greene and camille is bad, and it has a weak pre-epilogue ending. It's more of a Casino Royale part two than film in it's own right, but i enjoy watching it as much as any Bond film. Bond 23 will revert to formula

[antherick]

yeah, greene wasn't good, and i thought the airplane and boat scenes were added in for no reason and weren't very exciting, otherwise it had some good parts

[obilleh]

@Dressingown Do you know if they are still filming bond 23?

[coldice33]

love this movie. i love the opera too, Tosca.

AND WHEN THEY PUT BOTH TOGETHER, IT WAS AWESOME!

OO7 RULZ!

(SCARPIA IS AWSOME)

[NaboDeb]

best bond film ever!!

[Macgyverman]

My favourite Scene in my favourite bond film

[amarsbarr]

OH MY GOD! this is your favourite Bond film? wow, thats cool, i've never known anyone to select this one as their favourite, howcomes? :D to me, it didn't feel like a bond film one bit, but i respect your opinion

[Macgyverman]

i love all 22 films don't get me wrong but i prefer the darker more serious ones like From Russia with love Licenece to kill Casino royale and quantum of solace. Casino royale and Quantum of solace are my favourite because it everything i've ever wanted in a bond film. I hope the continue this dark path for bond 23. Maybe even using unused elements from the novel From russia with love

[stadioazteca]

there are better Bond films but this scene is absolutely top-notch..it works superbly

[Baboosi1]

SCARPIAAAAAAAAAAAA

[imhood37]

this is an odd scene just a few secounds after this that shootout was somewhat epic and some other shit

[euan69]

i honestly don't know where the bad crit came from! this is an AWESOME bond film! different but brilliant..

[22glhuillier]

@euan69

I just watched this Bond again and I totally agree with this analysis. For once, opera and cinema together fits well...

[sslohier]

this was such a wonderful scene- the opera one; does anyone know what opera company are singing in it?

[gurpsk]

its called tosca - te deum

[xxshady]

Epic scene!

[ZombieMan04]

My favorite scene in the movie.

It did bother me how all the Quantum folk all left their seats after Bond interrupted. They were easily giving themselves away.

[arandomperson3]

That was the point, when he said "You people should really find a better place to meet." That was the que that they had been comprimized and had to GTFO before M16 black ops would come in and pw3n them or something. At least that's what they thought.

[ZombieMan04]

Well, I thought, considering how they've been able to keep an organization like that hidden, they would have figured that they're in with thousands of people, they can't see who's listening in on them, so chances are he can't see them either, so stay in your seat. Don't stand up and give away exactly where you are. That's what I was thinking when I saw them get up.

[Ichirin145]

Well they were so used to being secretive that when they heard some1 tell them they should find a better place to meet, they panicked, except for Mr White who had the brilliant idea of not moving and taking his earpiece off.

[ZombieMan04]

I believe he didn't move because he knew what to do, but I also think that he may not have moved because he still has a limp, and probably wouldn't be able to get out very casually....

[bigjamesbondfan]

Impressive scene.

[PrincessMercedes04]

lolz!!

[rroct87]

As if they didn't have a better place to hold a meeting...

[y2kjericho86]

Well they did know the CIA and MI6 were on to them and were listening in and tracking and hoped this was the last place they would find them.

[rroct87]

But how wrong they were since the top, super, all powerful, best, leading...... British secret agent were on their trail... James Bond.

James Bond: Above average (AAA) bond ?

[Ichirin145]

Well it would arouse suspicion if they all met face to face in a private meeting.

[Mojito133]

Best Bond movie ever.

I don't care what haters say.

[arandomperson3]

Yea well I guess I'm a hater, cause I say this movie was an average bond film. Although that was probably the director's fault. Daniel Craig is an amazing actor, but the director should've told him to be more flamboyant, cocky, humorous, whitty, and most of all WOMANIZING. In Quantum, he's just a brutal thug who can put pieces of a puzzle together easily. Where are the whitty quips? Where's all the easy bimboes? WHERE IS Q, AND MONEY PENNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ZombieMan04]

Well, Q and Moneypenny not being in it is not the director's fault. I think the studio felt that their presence would have felt out of place in the movies.

I don't think "easy bimboes," is something that desperately needs to come back.

[TalentSpotter83]

@ZombieMan04 I think the point of including characters such as Moneypenny and Q is that they'll be introduced gradually as Bond gains greater status within SIS (MI6). In an interview Daniel Craig remarked that Bond needs to 'earn' them and I agree with him. If they're weaved into the story and given a bit more than before then I don't think they'll feel out of place. Kelly Reilly for Moneypenny. Chiwetel Ejiofor for Q.

[Mojito133]

Rewatch Quantum again, there's plenty of humor and quips. We don't need them too much, we don't want to go back to Roger Moore's clown days, do we?

Moneypenny could be OK, (only if they make her a bit more serious than she was before) but Q = gadgets, gadgets = fail. They should continue the Craig era without gadgets.

And for Tomorrow Never Dies being one of the best Bond movies ever - I beg to differ. The film was dull as hell.

[Ichirin145]

Everyone knows Goldeneye was better then Tomorrow Never Dies XD

[ASwordAndAKey]

Goldeneye was the best Brosnan Bond film by far.

[NaboDeb]

Goldeneye was great when it came out, i was 12 then now it just seems gay even brosnan seems gay.

[ASwordAndAKey]

I think I was about 13... I can remember my mate and I watching it and we were going on about it and doing impressions for about 3 months after. Goldeneye was great...

But Daniel Craig has cast a big shadow over the Brosnan era.

I think people became disenchanted with Bond during that era, Brosnan karate chopping 16 stone men and knocking them unconscious never convinced anybody, poofy. It created a niche for Jason Bourne & Ethan Hunt.

People slate these Craig movies, but they are epic....

[bukefalas]

There was the whitty quip. "I really think you people should find a better place to meet."

[HeyItsSteve93]

Martin Campbell needs to come back and just direct all of the bond films.

He directed the two greatest bond movies: Goldeneye and Casino Royale.

[arandomperson3]

Thank you. And I would like the director of Tommorrow never dies, and The world is not enough to come in because those were some of the (in my opinion) BEST Bond movies. (But let us not challenge the higerarchy of Bondsmanship Sean Connery of course)

[HeyItsSteve93]

Exactly.

I liked The World is not Enough more than Tomorrow Never Dies though. But they were still both good.

I wish Sean Connery could have been in Bond movies today with better effects.

[bigjamesbondfan]

Couldn't agree with you more

[delacroix213]

chase scene soundtrack is absolutely "E qual via sceglete"... it may sound different becuse the track used in the movie has a louder begining.

[bigjamesbondfan]

Dominic Greene has funny eyes.

[ebushgv]

I heard in an interview why he did the whole buggy eyed scheme: he said that a lot of Bond villains had some characteristic that was somewhat evil and they gave him nothing to work with so he decided to give the opened evil eyed look...

[igotyou62]

i love this scene

[mattinjapan]

Where's the rest of this clip? This is my favorite part of the film, by far.

[bigjamesbondfan]

Impressive scene.

[Chris250000]

You've obviously never read the books.

[qwerty158]

but James Bond is suppossed to be an unlikeable prick

[Baboosi1]

Classic.

[livi313]

great! one of the few times that opera in a movie was actually good quality singing!

[gomochachi]

I love it when Bond encountered the Greene and his men for the first time face to face. It was beautifully done.

[gomochachi]

This is my favorite scene out of the whole entire movie!

[TrainingThespian]

I think that the scope of the scene, along with the ingenuity of Bond against QUANTUM (and his wit!) MAKE this scene.

[GGCC1]

Where did u get this clip from?

[leeaxtellreim]

Thank you for posting this clip. I couldn't follow it very well in the theatre. It is mentioned about focusing attention on the Canadian. I would love it the next Bond movie came to Canada.

[bigjamesbondfan]

This scene was very impressive first time seeing it in the cinema.

[skunimatrix]

The scene where he is taking the pictures is listed as "Tre Sbirri, Una Carrozza" and "Or Gli Perdono" is the music from the gun fight and chase.

At least that is on the back of the CD set I have.

[gravityisruthless]

The chase scene music is "E qual via sceglete"

[skunimatrix]

The scene where he is taking the pictures is listed as "Orsu, Tosca, Parlate" and then the gun fight scene is listed as "Tre Sbirri, Una Carrozza".

At least that is on the back of the CD set I have.

[lavastorz]

I was curious about that, thanks.

[litlcatfeet]

The song from the sequence following this clip (that is, the gunfight through the restaurant) is actually from the end of Act II, after Tosca stabs Scarpia. A review I found online pointed out that the film 'cheats' a bit and jumps forward in the opera from the end of Act I to the end of Act II. I certainly don't mind them cheating a bit - the whole opera sequence was the highlight of the film for me.

[AMSD92]

this scene was stunning when I was watching this in the cinema

[omidimo]

Stunning bit of QoS.

[wepomaq]

i've been working on this scene, after 3 nights listening on and on the same song, the song becomes annoying ;-)

[djtimak23]

i have been there last summer

i watched the second show of Tosca in Bregenz!

[breitlingfan]

the name of that song is Tosca Scarpia, performed by Tevfik Rodos

[jimmy1time]

I fav scence fro the movie. When Bond and Green meet, ohhhhhhhhhhh shit!

[KnolkVlbg]

scheisse.. die hond baba ussagschnitta!... mannomannomanno.... aber mein soles isch no do! gott sei dank!

[monkeyalamode]

I love this scene.

[kellyc1001]

I agree, this is the best scene in the film! I found the track that plays during this scene at the opera, but does anyone know the instrumental that plays just following this scene during the gunfight through the restaurant?

[GGCC1]

Can you upload this video so i can download it please? Or at least tell me how you got it?

[osirisdelile]

to lastofthejedi77 : this is the final of Tosca's act 1

To be listened without moderation

[lastofthejedi77]

I downloaded the final to Toscas act 1 and it doesnt have the song from the following sequence though...And thats not on the Quantum of Solace OST either. :-/

[tinuvil713]

yes, frisco1968, your're right. it's the te deum and i must agree that it is one of the most beautiful scores in the whole opera. it was really impressive to sing it (i was lucky to be one of the bishops beneath the iris)!!!

[Australopiticus123]

hi tinuvil713,

i was one of the opera guests in Quantum of Solace. If i see the scene again, i get goose bumps:)

the music touches

best regards

[lastofthejedi77]

Does anyone know the name of the song, its an instrumental, and plays in the next scene where bond runs through the restaurant.

[Coco86]

How's the title of the score? it's tosca, but which act? It sounds beautiful!

[frisco1968]

Just found this:

"The section heard is Scarpia´s "Va, Tosca" (Te Deum) from the end of Act 1."

[migns]

Totally agree!

Perhaps one of the best scenes in the film.

I wonder if "Quantum" will become MI6's arch-enemy like SPECTRE...

[SirJohnSteed1st]

Agreed. That would really set the tone for the next film or two.

[2xtravelator]

best scene in the film ... please upload the whole scene because this is just a small part ...

[thosha2k]

too good <3

[Ukrainerocks]

Haha, awesome.
