C. Le Mesurier
Born this day in 1914
Sound Recordist for From Russia With Love
He was born Colin Francis Le Messurier in Essex, but went by
C. Le Mesurier. He got his start as part of the dubbing crew (uncredited of
course) for Maniacs on Wheels (1949),
starring Dirk Bogarde as Bill Fox, a blue-collar factory worker who becomes a
successful motorcycle racer.

Le Mesurier had 33 sound department credits, with his
project on the film Zeppelin in 1971. I can only assume that he retired from
the industry since his passing was over 20 years later, in 1995.

Loti in Licence to Kill
Seattle native Diana Lee Hsu was no stranger to the limelight:
She ran track and was on her high school’s gymnastics team. She was also an
accomplished musician who performed Mozart with the Seattle Symphony Orchestra.
Hsu earned a bachelor’s degree in modern dance and became a Playboy Playmate
for May 1988. She did several Playboy videos and got her first acting break as
Loti in Licence to Kill (1989), a Hong
Kong narcotic agent, partnered with Kwang, played by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (Mortal
Kombat).
Bond Trivia: She was one of the silhouette dancers in the
opening sequence of Licence to Kill.
