Inspired by 007, Day of Dead parade to be organized

The opening scene of the movie Spectre shows James Bond chasing a bad guy through a Day of the Dead parade in Mexico City - except there has never been such a procession. But life is about to imitate art.

Inspired by the film, officials decided to hold a similar parade on Oct 29 that will start at the Angel of Independence monument and end at the historic Zocalo square.

The procession will have hundreds of volunteers and will "revisit the props and the wardrobe of the well-known film Spectre," the city government said in a statement on Thursday.
