Excellent insights

Best bond connery 😅

No one could ever replace Sir Sean Connery as James Bond.

I congratulate you "Wordsmith" on a wonderful, comprehensive encapsulation of what we do for a living. Excellent presentation and layout of the process and result. I love the "graded" non-printed takes. I want more from your capable compilation of these days of organic filmmaking. "Love that without video playback they did a take 7!" Keep them coming I am an instant fan.

What a gem!

What a fascinating video!Thanks for posting!

It was a gilded age of film making.

This is genius. You're a genius. Fantastic seeing it all put together. Also, was Eunice Gayson dubbed in the film, and is that her natural voice in the trailer, or was it the other way round?

Crap.

The first Bond movie I saw in the theaters was From Russia With Love. my dad took me to see subsequent Bond movies until I was old enough to go on my own. I was 4 or 5 when I saw FRWL. I saw Dr. No later. Connery is the best and my favorite Bond. What I love about his movies is the intrigue, suspense and believability that later entries in the series kind of pushed to the limit (the believability aspect). This was really interesting. I had no idea that Connery did a voice over narration sharing thoughts and so on. Fascinating. Is this available?

As always, this is very insightful. I just wish the sound quality was better.

It was great Livestream, Paul. I found it very interesting. Hope to see more like this from you in the future 👍👍 I worded my second comment incorrectly. I was trying to make the point that your Dr No book is a great publication and just as good as your James Bond Archives book.

Well planned n executed (showed out) movie, the 1st of its kind spy thrillers, thrilled the audience. Thank u.

Very informative... love it. 😊

Very interesting, thank you for this. Greetings from France !

A conversation with George about the history and development of the Clone Wars Animated Series would be valuable!

Great classic movie. I have Sean's complete line up Bond movies

The 1960s were by far the greatest years the world ever had.

CONNERY THE ONLY BOND.

Broccoli was so mad at Jack Lord he screamed: "I'll never 'book him' again!" 😂

And theres never been any movie series where it starts with some guy walking out, turning and shooting straight at you within the first few seconds. Sets the tone up perfectly

Great Video, Thanks for Sharing !

10:41 my dad had that exact caddy ,4 door in that color.

Were the American cars on the island, or brought over from the States?

Nice book but it won't be affordable till a few years from now and you would have to get a used copy

The unsung heroines of many films are the script supervisors. They are the source of these take-by-taken notes -- they were the history of the filming on set to guide film editors long after the locations were history and the sets had been dismantled.

❤ I was a 10 year old intern at school when they showed Dr. No at the end of the year, and the world seemed suddenly turn from black and white to color... The year was 1964 and the place was Jounieh, a coastal town of Lebanon. Later, when every Bond movie came out in Beirut downtown, classes where empty in the afternoon 😅😅😊 ....❤from Montreal

Awesome video & info.... thanks!

Dr snow

I like the product placement in the Bond movies. For me, it was seeing the new Ford Mustang in Goldfinger, when I was a 7 year old boy.

Very interesting video, giving us insight into how a movie is put together. I hope you put up more of these videos!

Great documentary

Thanks for that, never seen a video analysis of Dr No before, its one of my fave Bond films, not least cos its the original. I dont think it gets enough love, everyone just goes straight to Goldfinger which I found too over the top personally and nonsensical in parts. Dr No is as much a 60s spy thriller as it is a Bond film.

No disrespect, but I can't believe I found this so interesting! I have no idea if you even just made this all up? Who cares... I subscribed anyway! 😉👍 Best wishes from an Englishman making movie-armour in a French forest.

Love it!

Best bond

Noooooo.

This was the comparison I was looking for! By the way, I see there's a new "horizontal" edition coming out in September (IV-VI) and November (I-III), priced $70 each volume. Are these going to be a sort of middle ground between the 40 edition and the XXL...? Maybe same pages/content of the XXL, but with slightly smaller size?

Jack Lord a American!! Your high!!😂

My fam spent a month, July-August...same year. Independence 2 weeks, age 10, drank a daquiri, as parents were international-minded...got scared by huge land crab...Montego Bay. Whole island ha a party...world limbo expert on the beach...whole tourist fantasy of era. Saw the movie soon after. But 'From Russia' was the magic. Still showing in Paris summer of 70...Animal Crackers, Mash. Summer job, Hachette. When Rob Shaw was sucker punched and Lotte Lenye says, "He seems fit enough...Princeton, NJ audience...volcanoed. He reacted more in the book, but recovered quickly...Shaw played superman type.

I own both versions. I don't know why I watched the video, but it's just so great looking at the imagery. The full version is overwhelming. Many of the page spreads are just amazing. Its a visual feast. Having the smaller version is great when you just want to read the text as you can easily hold the book.

Should you ever SAIL into the "PERCY HILTON" on Middle Percy in Australia... you'll find 2 Signs in the A-frame hut...1 Labeled "Dr. NO" and the second one beneath it "KOKOMO". A tribute to Sean Connery...who was an invited guest on KOKOMO (118 sailboat).

Danke für diese Informationen. 🍀👍🏼💥

Love this era of Bond ~ Sean Connery is my no.1 Bond. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My dad took me to see several of the Sean Connery Bond films. I was 7 years old when this one came out. It goes without saying that he was the greatest Bond of all. I later had a neighbor who was a retired Royal Navy Lieutenant Commander in naval intelligence who actually knew Ian Fleming, who of course was also in naval intelligence. It’s a small world.

I don't know if Polanski's version is the best (I think Francesca Annis is badly miscast as Lady Macbeth), but it is certainly the easiest to understand and probably speaks most powerfully to a contemporary audience. The scuttled ending owes more to Jan Kott, who reinterpreted Shakespeare's plays through the modernist prism of Samuel Beckett. Peter Brook's "King Lear" is a Jan Kott interpretation of the play, which reimagines "Lear" as a variation on Beckett's "Endgame". Polanski's Macbeth and Banquo encountering the witches on the heath might be Beckett's Vladimir and Estragon wandering a country road. In my opinion, "Throne of Blood" has the most impressive Lady Macbeth and Birnham Wood scene. On the other hand, Polanski's set piece of the prophecy glimpsed in the witches' cauldron is the best scene of any "Macbeth" movie.

First time I went to a movie theater, went with my Mom and Dad in Phoenix, Az. I was 9 or 10 years old. It was a fantastic memory.

Best Bond film, best Bond

Interesting.

This is superb! Thanks for researching and doing this video.
