James bond the world is not enough: sophie marceau's sexiest scenes

Marceau is back on UK screens tonight in the Bond classic. Marceau brought a delicious ambiguity to her role as the imperilled heiress who turns the tables (and screws) on Brosnan's

Bond in spectacular fashion. The bed scenes are standard OO7 titillation. The torture scene is fantastically OTT. Marceau was 33 when she made her Bond debut in 1999 and already had decades

of big screen fame in Europe behind her. Away from the restrictions of Hollywood, the gorgeous Gallic star is not afraid to strip in her movies. From teenage exploration and innocent shower

scenes to brutal prison moments, she steams up the screen in a succession of raunchy roles. She made her debut at 14 in 1980's La Boum but became a najor sex symbol at 20 with the

release of Descent Into Hell in 1986. NEXT: SOPHIE MARCEAU'S SEXIEST PICTURE GALLERY AND CLIPS (WARNING: ADULT CONTENT AND NUDITY) In 1988's historical drama Choans, the French

star frolics naked on a beach with her lover. The film was based on the Balzac novel Les Choans, about a woman torn between two brothers. It is easy to see why entire families would fall for

the curvy charms of the bathing beauty. She also emerges naked from the sea as the titular character in 1993's frothy romatic comedy FanFan but things get far more explicit in the

torrid Firelight. The 1997 historical romance with Stephen Dillane follows teh complicated journey of a governess who agrees to bear a child for a rich man. BOND BEAUTY EVA GREEN: SEXIEST

PICTURES AND SCENES Even with the Spanish music soundtrack imposed over montage of the clips from Firelight, Marceau's sensuality and sexuality blazes. There is topless sunbathing and

beach sex in 1986's Descent Into Hell about a beautiful young woman married to a much older writer. Things turn from sensual to sinister after he accidentally kills another man. DANIEL

CRAIG HAS CONFIRMED HE WILL MAKE ONE LAST JAMES BOND MOVIE - WATCH HIS ANNOUNCEMENT NEXT DANIEL CRAIG REVEALS HIS JAMES BOND RETURN Marceau made the frisky romcom The Student in 1988,

followed by more naked fun the next year in My Nights Are More Beautiful Than Your Days The most recent film in the gallery above is the provocative and rather harrowing Jailbirds from 2015.

The star plays a woman who voluntaily goes to prison to save her boyfriend.  Her prolific and extremely varied filmography demonstrates that, as with much of European cinema, nudity serves

the plot and may be integral to the action but is simply another aspect of portraying a wide range of lives and experiences. _THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH IS ON ITV AT 10.50PM ON SATURDAY, AUGUST
