Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd, played by Bruce Glover and Putter smith
Assassins Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are on the run, killing anyone who comes into contact with a certain set of diamonds. Bond's boss M thinks the diamonds are part of a smuggling operation, and orders 007 to investigate.
Bond impersonates Peter Franks, a smuggler who is supposed to meet up with a contact named Tiffany Case. At Case's apartment, Bond and the real Peter Franks meet up. The two fight, and Bond subdues him. To avoid revealing his identity, Bond switches identifications with Franks. Tiffany and "Franks" (Bond) hide the smuggled diamonds in the real Franks' body, and smuggle them to L.A.
Tiffany Case, played by Jill St. John
Bond meets with Felix Leiter at the airport, and they switch the real diamonds with fakes ones. Bond and Tiffany are driven to a funeral home with Franks' body, and Franks is creamated. The diamonds come out intact, and the next smuggler in the chain, Shady Tree, takes them. Unfortunately, Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd catch Bond and lock him in a casket. They send him into the oven to be cremated. Bond's luck is about to be burned in flames with the rest of him when Shady Tree turns the oven off and pulls Bond out. Tree realized the diamonds were fake, and wanted to know where the real ones were.
Bond and Tiffany go to Las Vegas where Leiter shipped the real diamonds, and follow the diamonds as they switch from one smuggler to another. Bond soon realizes that his arch-enemy Ernst Stavro Blofeld receives the diamonds and plans to build a satellite with them that could destroy the world's nuclear weapon supply.

Ernst Stavro Blofeld, played by Charles Gray
Diamonds Are Forever wasn't my favorite Bond movie. To me, it was a boring plot. Smuggling diamonds isn't exactly a life-and-death situation, which most of the 007 movie plot's are all about. Having said that, it was a pretty good movie. Blofeld is quite sarcastic with Bond, and I'm a sarcastic guy sometimes. In one scene, Blofeld is dressed as a woman, which was kind of hilarious.
