Time magazine’s Web site has a list of the Top 10 Movie Sidekicks and puts Felix Leiter, James Bond’s 007 CIA pal, at NUMBER EIGHT ON THAT LIST. The short article has a photo of Leiter’s most recent incarnation, actor Jeffrey Wright from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. However, the article makes brief mentions of Leiter in other Bond movies such as Goldfinger and Licence to Kill. Bond fans may note the Time article uses the American spelling of license for the latter.
