As for the Battle of Bannockburn, the theme really played was probably a traditional Scottish theme such as "Hey Tuttie Tatie". The song, called "Marche des soldats de Robert Bruce" in France, belongs to the traditional list of military music, and commemorates the long-lasting Auld alliance between France and Scotland. Īccording to tradition, the same theme was played in 1429 by the Franco-Scots army at the Siege of Orleans in front of Jeanne d'Arc. Although the lyrics are by Burns, he wrote them to the traditional Scottish tune " Hey Tuttie Tatie", which according to tradition, was played by Bruce's army at the Battle of Bannockburn. “His name was Bond.The lyrics were written by Robert Burns in 1793, in the form of a speech given by Robert the Bruce before the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, where Scotland maintained its sovereignty from the Kingdom of England. Madeline tells Matilde a story about a man.
The film’s final scene shows Madeline and Matilde driving along the Italian coast, a similar view from the movie’s opening moments, five years earlier, where she and Bond were on a romantic getaway. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. M reads a passage from author Jack London: “The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. Later, back at M’s office, Bond’s work-family - M, Moneypenny, Q, Nomi, and Tanner - raise a toast to him, with a glass of whisky set aside for Bond in his honor. Madeline sobs as the island is destroyed in the missile strike and Nomi realizes Bond is dead. As the missiles rain down on the island, Bond stares out at the sun over the ocean as he is obliterated in the explosion. She, Nomi and Mathilde had made it to shore and can see the island from their position.īond thanks Madeleine for the gift she’s given him with their daughter and tells her he loves her. Having reopened the blast doors so that the British navy’s missile strike can succeed, Bond calls Madeleine to say goodbye. Possibly already mortally wounded by Safin’s gunfire, Bond kills Safin and hauls himself back up to the control room to reopen the blast doors shielding the lair.īond’s imminent self-sacrifice becomes clear to Q, who is in a plane flying nearby, as well as to M (Ralph Fiennes), Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), and Tanner (Rory Kinnear) tracking the events from back at MI6 headquarters in London. This means Bond, the biogenetic weapon’s carrier, would cause their deaths if he ever returned to them. During their brawl, Safin scratched Bond, infecting him with nanobots genetically encoded to Madeleine, and therefore also to her child’s DNA. Safin got a sample of Madeline’s DNA from a strand of her hair while he held her and Mathilde hostage. And the nanobots, as Q (Ben Whishaw) makes clear, are permanent and can’t be removed from one’s system. MI6 witnessed family members who made contact with deceased SPECTRE operatives who then died themselves because Heracles was targeted to kill those sharing specific DNA. As we saw in the sequence where Heracles was used to kill SPECTRE members but spare everyone else, Safin’s able to engineer the Heracles nanobots to kill people that share specific DNA.
