film information

Solange played by Caterina Murino is the first Bond girl of Casino Royale. On the trail of the mysterious text message sent to Mollaka, Bond travels to the Ocean Club in the Bahamas to find out more information. After identifying Alex Dimitrios as the sender of the message, Bond decides to investigate his house located a short way up the beach. Exiting the water Ursula Andress style, Bond notices Solange making a stunning entrance wearing a green bikini and riding a white horse. After exchanging brief gazes, Solange enters Dimitrios' house with him casting an eye over the proceedings on the balcony above.

Later in the Ocean Club Solange enters the bar area where Bond, Dimitrios and a number of other players are enjoying a game of poker. Dismissed by Dimitrios for being a number of hours late, Solange sits at the bar looking very bored. She understands why Dimitrios was in such a mood when she tries to enter the Aston Martin now owned by Bond. After the couple return to Bonds ocean villa, they enjoy a bit of frivolity before Bond follows Dimitrios on the last flight back to Miami.

After Le Chiffre's plan to blow up the Skyfleet S570 prototype fails, he surmises that someone talked. Since Bond killed Dimitrios at the Bodyworks exhibition in Miami, it is Solange who is the only person left to torture for information. After returning to the Bahamas with M, Bond finds the dead body of Solange wrapped up in a hammock on the beach. §
