Connery allowed for his likeness of Bond to be used appropriately from the film , and also recorded new voice work for the character at Compass Point Studios in Nassau with engineer Terry Manning. In addition, two new characters were added to the story, voiced by Natasha Bedingfield and Maria Menounos , were added to the main cast with the actress' likenesses incorporated. From Russia with Love is the first title developed by Electronic Arts Redwood Shores to use an integrated game engine for the third-person shooter action and driving segments. It was a new engine that was not based on any of the technology used for previous titles in the series but the result was similar to Id Tech 3. Feirstein would also go on to write stories for future Bond games at Activision , including the remake of GoldenEye , third-person shooter Blood Stone , and 50th anniversary game Legends. The game's soundtrack was composed by Christopher Lennertz. Additionally, Vic Flick , best known for playing the original guitar riff in the James Bond Theme announced that he contributed to Lennertz's score.

The new James Bond film No Time To Die will not feature the spy in its pre- credits action for the first time in nearly 50 years. Whether he is walking through the streets of Mexico 's Day of the Dead festival or involved in an epic car chase, nearly every Bond film has previously featured in action before the credits roll. Swann is pursued by Rami Malek's villain Safin in the flashback scene, which is the first attempt by the Bond franchise to give emotional backstory for a character other than its eponymous hero. The new Bond film will begin with a scene performed entirely in French featuring Madeleine Swann, the woman for whom Bond retires at the end of Spectre played by Lea Seydoux. Last year the actor beat his predecessors to be the longest-serving James Bond. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli announced earlier this month. The 25th film in the franchise finds Bond after he has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica when his old friend Felix Leiter, played by Jeffrey Wright, from the CIA turns up asking for help. Leaving his seemingly happy life with Madeleine, Bond returns to the field to face Safin who is armed with a new dangerous technology that could impact the world.

Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 7 DE-6 (3/81) ii ABSTRACT All eight feature films (1965-1981) of John Boorman were viewed and analyzed according to Auteur Theory. The recondite themes and motifs found throughout his work revealed a preoccupationwwith character and events in the Grail legend. Thematically, Boorman's rendering of the Arthurian protagonist revealed him in the modern context of the private eye, the soldier, the defrocked priest, the displaced aristocrat, and the wilderness adventurer. Merlin figures, and women figures intrinsic to the Grail legend appear in all his work. Aesthetically Boorman's feature films are veiled allegories of the Arthurian quest.

  • Ken Russell, the BBC and ‘Television Biography’
    ‘Blurring the lines between fact and fiction’: Ken Russell, the BBC and ‘television biography’ John Hill Abstract: Working for the BBC arts programmes Monitor and Omnibus during the 1960s, the director Ken Russell was responsible for a series of biographical films based on the lives of painters and composers. Tracing the development of Russell’s work from Prokofiev (1961) and Elgar (1962) through to Bartok (1964) and The Debussy Film (1965), the article examines how Russell’s incorporation of elements of drama into the arts documentary generated arguments, both within the BBC and beyond, about the legitimacy of mixing ‘fact’ and ‘fiction’ in such works. These debates focused, in particular, on the use of ‘dramatic reconstruction’ and subjective ‘interpretation’ and the ‘fairness’ of the films’ treatment of the artists and composers with which they dealt. As a result of its unusually explicit representations of sex and violence, Russell’s film about the composer Richard Strauss, Dance of the Seven Veils (1970), took these arguments to a new level. Through an examination of the responses that the film generated, the article concludes that, due to the degree to which the programme departed from BBC norms of documentary practice, and the related values of ‘impartiality’ and ‘good taste’, it became a work that tested the very limits of what the BBC then considered it possible to transmit. Keywords: BBC; Ken Russell; Ken Loach; Huw Wheldon; David Attenborough; Monitor; Omnibus; documentary; drama documentary; television biography; Elgar; The Debussy Film; Dance of the Seven Veils; Richard Strauss. It has become something of a commonplace within British film and television studies to counterpose a dominant tradition of ‘documentary-realist’ practice to alternative filmmaking currents associated with melodrama, visual stylisation and fantasy.
