How are the villains connected?
Mr. White is a middleman of a mysterious terrorist organisation (which replaces the novel’s SMERSH). His henchmen are “Tall Man” and Gettler. Vesper has been blackmailed into working with this organisation. Le Chiffre is a private banker to whoever needs money laundering. In the film, he is working with Mr. White’s organisation to profit from acts of terror. His main man is Alex Dimitrios; other henchmen are named Leo, Bobbie, Jochum, Kratt, and Valenka. Obanno is a high ranking member of the Lord’s Resistance Army, with various other freedom fighters under him. He entrusts $100 million with Le Chiffre, who loses the money when Bond foils his Skyfleet plot and tries to recoup his losses by staging the poker tournament. Dimitrios is a government contractor and a dealer in arms and information. He is an associate of Le Chiffre. Two other independents are seen working for Le Chiffre through Dimitrios: Mollaka, Bond’s target in Madagascar; and Carlos, the terrorist at the airport.
