"Call Me Bwana" is "plugged" in Eon Productions' 1963 "Bond" film "From Russia with Love" during a sequence where Ali Kerim Bey assassinates the Russian agent Krilencu with a sniper rifle. Krilencu attempts to escape through a window, which is situated in Anita Ekberg's mouth, on the wall-sized poster: "She should have kept her mouth shut," Bond says. In the original novel by Ian Fleming, published in 1957, the scene happens in a trapdoor situated in Marilyn Monroe's mouth on a poster for "Niagara".
