Three movies into our recap series looking at each of the Bond actors and their filmography outside of the Bond universe, and we are yet to really get an outstanding film that we are glad we watched. Can Timothy Dalton buck that trend with the 1997 movie that we have seemingly avoided doing for so long, The Beautician and the Beast? Well you’re about to find out as Ben & Colin recap it! Just why are both our hosts surprised at what they think of this film? Is this the movie that really set Dalton on the path for doing more comedic roles? Why is Fran Drescher actually all kinds of amazing and what makes us want to talk about her more? Which other Bond actor makes a random appearance in this movie? Does this movie have a plot or anything happening in it? Is there better chemistry between Dalton and Drescher than between Dalton and his Bond Girls in both of Dalton’s Bond movies combined? And just why is this recap leading to more potential episodes on this movie in the future? Get yourself a statue made and a few million people repressed by a fearless dictator in the movie you’ve been waiting for us to recap!
