Se Tutte le Donne del Mondo (International title: If All the Women in the World) is a James Bond spoof movie released in 1966. In most of the world, the English title was If All the Women in the World. It was released in the U.S. a year later with the title Kiss the Girls and Make Them Die. Produced by Dino De Laurentiis, the film was directed by Henry Levin director of two Matt Helm films and Arduino Maiuri. It starred Mike Connors of Mannix fame, Dorothy Provine and Terry-Thomas.

This film was rushed to release by Columbia Pictures to avoid colliding with their better known James Bond satire, Casino Royale.

The plot of this movie is similar to the James Bond film Moonraker, which was released 13 years later.

[edit] Plot

A Brazilian industrialist plans to sterilize the human race through the use of his satellite and to personally repopulate the planet with beautiful women he has kidnapped and is holding in suspended animation. A down-to-earth CIA agent (played by Conners), an aristocratic female MI-6 agent (played by Provine), and her chauffeur (played by Thomas), driving a Rolls-Royce car filled with spy gadgets, team up to stop the industrialist.

[edit] Production

Mike Connors recalled that Columbia Pictures gave him the lead after being a strong contender for the role of Matt Helm that Dean Martin played.^[1] Connors said that Dorothy Provine was whisked to Rome for a week returning in a glamourous makeover^[2] Whilst Connors played a Sean Connery type American superspy, Dorothy Provine played her role with an upper class British accent similar to Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward of the Thunderbirds (TV series). Her character rode a gadget filled Rolls Royce driven by a Parker type chauffer played by Terry-Thomas. The movie was filmed on location in Rio de Janeiro and Rome with Dino De Laurentiis spending a lot of money on production.^[3]

Connors also recalled that he did the stuntwork of dangling from a rope ladder attached to a helicopter flying off the Christ the Redeemer (statue) in Rio when the local stuntman refused to do it.^[4] Connors said that they were the only film company ever granted permission to film at the landmark.

Quentin Tarantino regards the film as his favourite James Bond imitation ^[5] and has shown it at several Quentin Tarantino Film Festivals.
