The Drink

Who drives James Bond's Aston Martin off a cliff in the middle of a rainstorm and dumps it in a lake? The guy who did this had been hired as a driver? Quantum of Solace producers paid this asshole to deliver the super-expensive car to the set in heavy rain yesterday morning when it went off the road and splashed into northern Italy's Lake Garda.


A report said that the Aston Martin in question is black. (What happened to light gray?) Could the town on Lake Garda's western shore be the same one made (in)famous by Pier Paolo Pasolini?

The accident happened on Riva del Garda, a small town on the northern tip of Garda Lake (as you can see from the map). Salò, the town you're talking about, is on the southwest part of the lake.

Maybe the guy thought it was like that car in For Your Eyes Only that could also function as a submarine.

I understand that Pasolini, when he was killed by a male prostie, was run over twice - like the guy backed up and drove over him again? It was not an Aston Martin though - so I hear that james caan walked off the set of Nailed because of a conflict with director O'Russell,

Of all the nerve! If that asshole didn't die in the crash he should be shot!

David O. Russell v. James Caan. I cannot wait for the YouTube clip.

Actually, Salo on Lake Garda is the namesake for where Passolini's film took place. From what I undestand it was not shot there.

Funny thing is Salo is still a "Playground" for the rich Fascists in Italy.

That Aston Martin driver was hired from the same agency that provided Princess Diana's driver in Paris.
