AI Summary
5 min readThe Upside Down Nude Dude
A 1979 newspaper review of the James Bond film Moonraker describes a scene where the villain's henchman Jaws—a giant with metal teeth—meets a young woman named Dolly, and "she smiles back and call her braces galore. She has about as much hardware in her mouth as he does." The review ran in the Journal Gazette and Times Courier of Mattoon, Illinois, on July 10, 1979, less than two weeks after the film's release. Today, if you watch Moonraker, Dolly has no braces. The actress who played her, Blanche Ravalec, has stated publicly that she never wore braces in the film. This is a classic example of the Mandela effect—a phenomenon where large groups of people share a memory that contradicts documented reality—and it's the thread that ties together three otherwise unrelated paranormal segments in this episode of Dead Rabbit Radio.
