I just watched the remake of Casino Royale with Daniel Craig again, and I noticed something: in the moment before she dies, Vesper seems to panic and try and say "I want to live", making her death even more sad, tragic and horrifying.

I've watched it over and over and I'm pretty sure, but perhaps I'm imagining things. Do other people see this, or is there corroborating evidence, perhaps from a script or novelisation (I'm pretty sure this scene is not from Ian Fleming's book)?
