Ursula then became a sex symbol, the same fate befell Halle.

Grace Jones

Charismatic and extravagant actress and singer Grace Jones played the hit woman May Day in A View to a Murder. The name of her character in the language of radio signals means "I am in distress!" Grace herself was not afraid of any disasters and participated in many scenes without understudies. The most impressive moment in the film is Bond (who was Roger Moore) chasing Mae Day up the stairs of the Eiffel Tower. Jones had to jump from a fifteen-foot height onto the mats laid out below.
