KINGU KONGU NO GYAKUSHU (King Kong Escapes) - Akira Ifukube - "Not A Chance Of That" (1967)

Once again the combination of Ishirô Honda, Akira Takarada and Mie Hama merged with music by Akira Ifukube makes for another fun eye candy movie to watch! Unfortunately, the cool music in this scene is pretty much buried in the background, but you still get the idea, and the dialogue is great! For more of exactly the same type of swinging music, go get yourself a copy of "Frankenstein Conquers The World." Very similar music by Akira Ifukube, but louder and much more of it! 
 
Rhodes Reason, Linda Miller and Akira Takarada share a drink with Mie Hama as they get ready for their big adventure. 
 
 Mie Hama was the first Asian woman to pose in Playboy or be a Bond Girl when she played Kissy Suzuki in "You Only Live Twice."
