Ryan Gilbey, reviewing Stanley Schtinter's book, "Last Movies" in an article entitled "From Kurt to Elvis, JFK and more, what movies did stars see just before they died?" as published in the Guardian's November 28, 2023 edition.

The likelihood is that the last movie (Pres. John F. ) Kennedy saw was "From Russia With Love", but he isn’t the only Bond fan in the book. Elvis Presley hired out a Memphis cinema to screen "The Spy Who Loved Me" in the weeks before the end credits rolled in his own life. From this starting point, the Presley chapter spirals off into a playlist of songs, including one from the movie "Roustabout" which featured a small role for Richard Kiel, who went on to play the metal-toothed baddie in … yes, "The Spy Who Loved Me".
