Now, with help from his estranged father Papa Gibbs (Julius Harris), Tommy builds up his criminal empire. Meanwhile, Tommy's henchman Zach (Tony King) and corrupt District Attorney DiAngelo (Gerald Gordon) plot against them, and Zach kills Papa. Now, there is no doubt that there will be hell up in Harlem when Tommy seeks revenge. Lots of violence.

 Live and Let Die 1973 PG, 121 min.
Genre: Action
Director: Guy Hamilton
Cast: Roger Moore, Jane Seymour, Yaphet Kotto, Geoffrey Holder, Clifton James, Bernard Lee, Lois Maxwell, David Hedison, Julius Harris, Gloria Hendry, Tommy Lane, Madeline Smith, Robert Dix, Roy Stewart, Earl Jolly Brown
This is the eighth agent 007 film, but it is the first with Roger Moore in the starring role. In this installment, James Bond is on the trail of a Caribbean-based drug dealer. As with the previous seven 007 films, this one has plenty of gadgetry, beautiful women, and wild chases. It's not up to the standards of the others, though, except for the title song by Paul McCartney.
