** ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'': Bond does this when he tries to get a cab driver to FollowThatCar into New York's Harlem district. As a white Englishman he sticks out a mile, causing a black CIA agent who's following Bond in turn to quip that, "You can't miss him--it's like following a cue ball!" It's not helped that the villain that Bond is following [[WeAreEverywhere has an extensive counter-surveillance network]] reporting Bond's progress via radio.

Strutter meanwhile not only doesn't stick out, but the same villains who're focused on the white British agent coming through their neighborhood completely miss the black American tailing him.
** Later in ''Live and Let Die'', Strutter unfortunately later plays this trope straight in New Orleans, as did Hamilton before him. It's hard for the gangster bar not to notice when there's literally only one man standing still just across the street from them, even if he appears to be just casually smoking.
