Berry talks about the strength of her character Jinx

16-Oct-2002 • Die Another Day

Columnists Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith from Coming Soon spoke to Halle Berry who`s putting down the word of those who insist the women of 007 films are one-dimensional. She plays Jinx in Die Another Day and says the character "is really sexy, super-feminine, very witty, tough as nails and as quick as 007 with the comeback lines."

She terms it "the next step in the evolution of the Bond woman," and points out, "Year after year they`ve gotten a little stronger, a little smarter and more equally yoked with Bond, while still retaining their sexiness. They are his intellectual equal and physical rival."

She does concede that the wardrobe she found most daunting in the 20th James Bond movie was "Army fatigues and combats -- because you have to wear them believably and not look uncomfortable in them. The glamorous gowns were the easy part!"

Thanks to `Spanish Bond` for the alert.
