Round Table - Foxes and Hounds and ...

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

IT's been a while since we had a Round Table discussion, and since not much else is going on I thought today would work for a review of Foxes and Hounds and all of the sexual tension... whatever we choose to call it.

This scene has always struck me as being slightly flirtatious.  It is groundbreaking for the era, and I always see Illya being attracted to this lovely African American woman.  Was it staged for that purpose, or did David McCallum just play it that way? Or does anyone else see it?


THE KISS
Okay, Illya has her, he's drawing her in and she's anticipating the kiss or something (seriously, how does she not just dive in?)
But then it's Napoleon with the major liplock for which he was apparently known among the actresses.
Question: Why does Napoleon take her away from Illya?

what struck me is that David looks really young in the top picture. It's almost as if it was form an ep a few years earlier :-)
