On the YOLT UE extras there's some great shots of him without his toupee. One particular shot, I believe on the locations extra, he wearing it, but the wind had blown it straight back and he almost looks like his old DR NO self.
There was probably quite a bit of discussion as to what types of wigs he should wear over the films. I always thought the CUBA wig was very Goldfingerish- might have looked better for NSNA.
Yeah, I think the side parting for NSNA didn't really work, not many blokes past 35 can do that. But I think the idea was a GF style toupee - straight up - would make him look more adult, older, and they were looking to tap the younger market then. There was also different coloured toupees in that film, you had it almost grey or white in some scenes, brown in others. It was a real dog's breakfast. If they couldn't even get his wig right, what hope...
