From Russia With Love: Donald \'Red\' Grant (Robert Shaw)

Comments for death : From Russia With Love: Donald \'Red\' Grant (Robert Shaw).

As said by Red Grant while holding Bond at gunpoint:

"The first one won't kill you; not the second, not even the third... not till you crawl over here and you KISS MY FOOT!"

How could Mr. Trebeck not include this!?

Grant's corpse was still on the train as it left does that count as "vanishing corpse'?

The simple answer? No. The long-winded answer? "Vanishing Corpse" as far as I know only applies when the body disappears through magic, or if it disintegrates somehow, or if the filmmakers forgot to include it in a scene where we know, by all rights, it ought to be there. In Grant's case, his body leaves with the train, but does not disappear; we never see it vanish before our eyes, nor is another scene shot in that train car where Grant's body is missing without explanation.

This is just my opinion, but I believe Grant should be a Baddy (Major), for he was one of the 4 big players in the film's convoluted plot.

Blofeld - Called for a plan
Kronsteen - Made a plan
Klebb - Put the plan into action
Grant - Carried out the plan

Also, Since Bond used the Garrote wire, this should definately count as "Own Weapon".

p.s. Did you know that Kronsteen and Klebb are now spelled correctly?

I agree with Mr. Brigg, he was for sure baddy (major), and he was spent to kill Bond and steal the machine, he pretty much did most of the work.

I'll just bump this up again, so he can be listed as Baddy (Major)

Actually Grant isn't a baddy major. He just did what his bosses told him to do. Klebb, Blofeld and Kronsteen are the Baddy Majors. Grant was just doing what he was told to do. After all that's like saying Jaws or Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are Baddy Majors.
