The very first Bond film got things started off right. There’s plenty of mystery and intrigue, a helping of sexiness and very little camp and gadgetry. The opening theme song is now legendary, although the plot of this film is largely forgetful.
Bond is trying to figure out if the disappearance of an agent and his secretary may be connected to disruptions of American rocket launchings in Florida, only to discover a relatively sinister plot and a conniving villain behind it all.
Not exactly a “save the world” premise, but tight writing and the character-driven nature of the film delivers us a lasting impression of the man simply known as Bond…James Bond.
