Stunning woman. One of my favourite Bond girls.

Very talented actress as well. She's been decent in everything I've seen her in (which granted isn't much). Underrated in my opinion.

I've long thought Scuropco was one of the most underrated - and ravishing - of Bond heroines. Her Natalya Simonova in GOLDENEYE is a classic example of a seemingly ordinary woman who heroically rises to the ccasion when she's thrust into extraordinary circumstances...and Scuropco plays her with a lovely down-to-earth realism surrounded by so many OTT characters in the film.

...and of course, the fact that she visually evokes Nastassja Kinski at times certainly doessn't hurt...

Yes! I've often thought she resembles Kinski.

I'd have loved to have seen Kinski play in a Bond film, preferably opposite Timothy Dalton...a pair of dark beauties for sure!

I remember her as the Helicopter pilot in Reign of Fire. Bale and McConaughey in a post-apocalyptic dragon ruled world. I love that flick.

Damn, I don't think the universe could have handled Kinski and Dalton in the same film. All the cinemagoers would fall simultaneously pregnant.

WAIT A ****ING MINUTE, I hate to type while I think, but I just remembered they did appear in a film together! A little film from 2000 called Time Share. Excuse the water marks...
