Topic: James Bond film


  
  James Bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James Bond is the son of a Scottish father, Andrew Bond, and a Swiss mother, Monique Delacroix, both of whom died in a mountain climbing accident in the Aiguilles Rogues, when Bond was 11 years old.
Bond in the films is a graduate with a degree in Oriental languages from Cambridge University, as stated in You Only Live Twice—contradicting the novels, and Tomorrow Never Dies, wherein he cannot use a Chinese computer keyboard.
Bond's women, particularly in the films, often have double entendre names, leading to coy jokes, for example, "Pussy Galore" in Goldfinger (a name invented by Fleming), "Plenty O'Toole" in Diamonds Are Forever, and "Xenia Onatopp" (a villainess sexually excited by strangling men with her thighs) in GoldenEye.

 The Bond Film Informant: James Bond 007
Bond's parents are named as Andrew Bond, a Scotsman, and Monique Delacroix from Canton de Vaud in Switzerland (these nationalities had previously been established in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service").
Bond's Scottish heritage was partly a result of Fleming being impressed with Sean Connery's screen portrayal of his character, whereas Bond's mother was named for a Swiss girl to whom Fleming was once engaged.
We know that Bond is a serving naval officer, and prior to his attachment to MI6 he served on board the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal (see another article for more details on the links between Bond and the Royal Navy).

 Rotten Tomatoes Forums - Most Under-rated James Bond Film?
This film came during the decadent Bond epics of the 70's, when 007 traveled the globe to track down an assassin who likes to hunt his prey in his haunted house (a sure reference to Lee's horror background).
Also watch for a scene where Bond picks up Jinx, not because she has any information he needs, but just because he's been in prison and he wants to screw (we also see a bit more steamy action than usual as a result).
It was basically James Bond ripping off Star Wars (combined with the excitement over the new spaceshuttles I imagine) but then again, those guilty of doing that back then would make a long list.

The title song (appearing in a scene where Bond is called in to the office while "entertaining" a female friend and later in the ending credits) was composed by Lionel Bart ("Oliver!") and performed by Matt Munro, with a unique orchestral style replete with Russian shaker bells.
His arrangement of the "James Bond Theme" (track 13) is not too dated or particularly offensive, and gives excellent pace to the film.
The film also features Shirley Bassey for her third Bond outing with an inspired title song (which is reprised in disco style for the closing credits).

 Assignment 5: James Bond Film Grosses
Placing at a close third are the four Brosnan films averaging $405,715,333.90 (scaled) per film.
I believe that Sean Connery made the highest (scaled) grossing James Bond movie and had the highest average (scaled) gross per film because of the way he translated Ian Fleming's fictional spy to celluloid.
While I think that the other James Bond actors have their own strengths with the role, Sean Connery set the standard for the film version of the character and is the reason for the high popularity and box office figures for his films as well as the continuation of the Bond franchise for forty years.

Bond's physical appearance may alter occasionally: In the mid-1970s and early 1980s he shrank a few inches, lightened his hair and overutilized his smirk.
A later assignment had Bond investigating a diamond-smuggling ring and discovering that a voice-altered cad named Ernst Blofeld had built a satellite laser gun in yet another effort to extort the world powers ("Diamonds Are Forever," 1971).
Knowing Bond, he's probably right where we found him for that first mission 40 years ago--in formal wear, at the baccarat table, smoking a cigarette, and eyeing a supple brunette who's returning the favor.

The survival of the Bond films depended on their ability to change with the decades, and From Russia With Love is no exception.
