The 2026 Winter Olympics, which you can watch all of with a Peacock subscription, are rounding the halfway point. Since Cortina d'Ampezzo is one of the co-host locations (along with Milan), I was inspired to watch one of my favorite James Bond movies, For Your Eyes Only, starring Roger Moore, which was partially filmed in the Alpine town.
I have a long history with the movie, as it was the very first Bond film I ever saw, way back in the early ‘80s when we first got a VCR. It was a movie I asked my mom to rent over and over. Watching it now shows off the town’s rich history of winter sports and why it’s such a great location for the Olympics.
