They’re getting ready to film a shootout at Matera
The clapperboard reads 52K
The PTS idea seems plausible. I’ve been pondering NTTD in recent days, and I’ve come to a conclusion in my thinking. I believe Madeleine is going to be the film’s spine, with it being a love letter of sorts to the woman in Bond’s life, and eventually the woman he settles down with. Especially with Fleabag on board. Bond living in Jamaica and being depressed about his lonely life, longing for something he had but no longer has. Fleming’s TSWLM had a feminine viewpoint/focus, so it’s not out of the question. It could make for a very satisfying ending especially if it’s really Craig’s last.

Yes, I think so too. Specially after Fukunaga’s comments about realising much more could be told about Madeleine - at least I think it was Cary who said that.
I believe she’ll be the spine and bones of this film, in which the narrative will revolve around her. Bond being the main character who is under her and her love’s thumb. I think Madeleine will be taken for dead in the PTS and right after it in Matera. Making the parallelism and giving sense to the “No Time to Die” line (or even “A Reason to Die”, for that matter). She’ll stay dead to protect Bond, and that’ll be the clincher. A Bond woman protecting Bond - the right way, none of that ninja stuff, finally. Trust me, this is the organics for the this film. And a fine ideia it is. Let’s see about its execution.

Matera really ain’t a bad place for a bit of filming, is it?
Quite fancy spending a bit of time there myself, especially if being paid for it.

It sure went silent these past few days. You think the filming was somehow more secluded or what?
This really excites me. He seems to be hitting all the right notes , looking forward to April
Excellent
Would you care to chuck a bunch of links up please?
Ah thanks.
Am not an Instagram user, or indeed a Twitter user either. Will continue to look there.
I’ve been very happy, at every turn, with Fukunaga ever since his announcement as director. I have every belief that the end product will be great and might welcome Fukunaga returning in the future (though maybe not for Bond 26).
From the small glimpses we’ve got, we’re definitely going to get a visually stunning film.
Just hope they do not use the yellow filter this time.

My zoom in capability is limited, but it does look like the passenger (Madeline?) is wearing the reddish dress we saw at one point. Is that what others see as well?
I really wish they would dump the costume designer and their deal with Tom Ford. The costume designs we’ve seen thus far have been atrocious and I have not really much enjoyed the Tom Ford suits at all in the last few films.
