CURLY

Contributed by: The Complete James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

Nickname of the Shell gasoline station attendant who attempts to help Tiffany Case (JILL ST. JOHN) in Diamonds Are Forever. Ordered by Bond (SEAN CONNERY) to block the exit of Dr. Metz’s (JOSEPH FURST) van, Tiffany drives into the station and parks her car sideways. She then gets out and walks off, distracting everyone long enough for Bond to sneak into Metz’s van. When Bond succeeds, the very cocky Tiffany walks back and says, “Sorry, Curly, you had your chance and you blew it.” She then drives off.
