He's a cinematic icon who's lasted over six decades in one of the world's most successful film franchises. But what's behind the success of the James Bond movies, and why do they still appeal after all this time? Bond Movies: A Retrospective dives into those questions.
Bond Movies is an overview of the entire James Bond film series, including the latest entry, No Time to Die. Packed with details on the making of each film — including "unofficial" entries like Never Say Never Again — it features fun trivia, behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and in-depth (sometimes irreverent) commentary on each film's virtues and flaws.
A book intended to be read and savored by Bond fans of all types — from newcomers to aficionados who know the movies and the original Ian Fleming novels. As a lifelong Bond watcher and reader, this has been a labor of love.
"Bond Movies: A Retrospective is essential reading for anyone who loves the Bond franchise. Ho Lin brings genuine enthusiasm and critical depth to every film."
