On Her Majesty's Secret Service, that weird film where James Bond actually goes through a proper character arc (meaning he's not really James Bond at the beginning), there's a full-on "falling in love" montage, the best scene has the Bond Girl recite poetry, and it ends on an inevitable-yet-upsetting note without any closure whatsoever.
Crikey, this series can be excellent when it forgets what it's "supposed" to be.
