RIP Karin Dor

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... -dies.html
German actress Karin Dor, who played an assassin sent to kill James Bond in You Only Live Twice, has died aged 79.

Dor passed away on Monday at a care home in Munich, her son told Bild, after failing to recover from injuries she sustained in a heavy fall last year. 

She acted in dozens of films, TV productions and theater plays during a career that began in her German homeland when she was 17.

Rip
we were talking about her other movies and tv shows in another thread.
I wonder how she felt being in bond so briefly (one role) then the series living on so long and being brought up again and again.

Some actors fear being too closely associated with one role. Leonard Nimoy wouldn’t talk about Spock for years, same thing with Tim Curry and Frank N Furter. Others are OK with it. Hattie Hayridge said that she could talk about Red Dwarf till the cows came home.
