Tosca in Quantum of Solace

One of the key villain scenes in the latest Bond film, Quantum of Solace, takes place at an outdoor performance of Tosca. From Wikipedia:

The sequence, where Bond stalks the villains during a performance of Tosca, required 1500 extras. The production used a large model of an eye, which Forster felt fitted in the Bond style, and the opera itself has parallels to the film.

The WaPo has an interesting write up about the scene. If you have already seen the film, or don’t mind spoilers, the clip is available on YouTube.
