His arrival is not welcomed by everyone, but it is not long before he is on the trail of the killer. The trail leads to a secretive scientist, Dr. No, but the discovery has wider implications.

No's secret lair, and and Honey are captured, but Quarrel is killed. Where learns Dr. No is has been disrupting the American rocket launches at N. Can James Bond defeat Dr. No has many similarities to the novel and follows its basic plot, but there are a few notable omissions. Major elements from the novel that are missing from the film include Bond's fight with a giant squid , and the escape from Dr. No's complex using the dragon-disguised swamp buggy. Elements of the novel that were significantly changed for the film include the use of a non-venomous tarantula spider instead of a centipede ; Dr. No's secret complex being disguised as a bauxite mine instead of a guano quarry; Dr. No's death by boiling in overheating reactor coolant rather than a burial under a chute of guano, and the introduction of SPECTRE, an organisation absent from the book. No's partner in crime Professor Dent and Bond's controversial cold-blooded killing of this character. Sometimes episodes in the novel retained in the film's altered narrative introduce elements of absurdity into the plot. Bond's "escape" from his cell via the air shaft, for instance, originally conceived as a ruse of Dr. No's to test Bond's skill and endurance, becomes an authentic break-out in the film. Features carried over from the novel's obstacle course, however, such as the torrent of water and scalding surface, have no logical justification in the script. Such incongruities recurred in subsequent Bond films. While producers Broccoli and Saltzman originally sought Cary Grant for the role, they discarded the idea as Grant would be committed to only one feature film, and the producers decided to go after someone who could be part of a series. There are several apocryphal stories as to whom Ian Fleming personally wanted. Reportedly, Fleming favoured actor Richard Todd. Ultimately, the producers turned to 32 year-old Sean Connery for five films. While this is untrue, the contest itself did exist, and six finalists were chosen and screen-tested by Broccoli, Saltzman, and Fleming. The winner of the contest was a year-old model named Peter Anthony, who, according to Broccoli, had a Gregory Peck quality, but proved unable to cope with the role. In the words of Bond writer Raymond Benson , Young educated the actor "in the ways of being dapper, witty, and above all, cool". For the first Bond girl Honey Ryder, Julie Christie was considered, but discarded as the producers felt she was not voluptuous enough. To appear more convincing as a Jamaican, Andress had a tan painted on her and ultimately had her lines redubbed by voice actress Nikki van der Zyl due to Andress' heavy Swiss-German accent. No, although, by the time Fleming told the producers, they had already chosen Joseph Wiseman for the part. No, but decided to turn it down. The role as the first Felix Leiter was given to Jack Lord. This is Bond and Leiter's first time meeting each other on film and Leiter does not appear in the novel. Leiter returns for many of Bond's future adventures and in the reboot of the film series, Casino Royale , Leiter and Bond are seen meeting one another again for the first time. This was Lord's only appearance as Leiter, as he asked for more money and a better billing to return as Leiter in Goldfinger and was subsequently replaced. The cast also included a number of actors who were to become stalwarts of the future films, including Bernard Lee , who played Bond's superior M for another ten films, and Lois Maxwell , who played M's secretary Moneypenny in fourteen instalments of the series. No and From Russia with Love. She had been given the part by director Terence Young, who had worked with her in Zarak and invited Gayson saying "You always bring me luck in my films", [46] although she was also cast due to her voluptuous figure. One role which was not given to a future regular was that of Major Boothroyd, the head of Q-Branch, which was given to Peter Burton. Burton was unavailable for the subsequent film, From Russia with Love , and the role was taken by Desmond Llewelyn. Anthony Dawson, who played Professor Dent, met director Terence Young when he was working as a stage actor in London, but by the time of the film's shooting Dawson was working as a pilot and crop duster in Jamaica. The primary scenes there were the exterior shots of Crab Key and Kingston, where an uncredited Syd Cain acted as art director and also designed the Dragon Tank. No's base, the ventilation duct and the interior of the British Secret Service headquarters. The studio was used on the majority of later Bond films. After 58 days of filming, principal photography completed on 30 March The scene where a tarantula walks over Bond was initially shot by pinning a bed to the wall and placing Sean Connery over it, with a protective glass between him and the spider. Director Young did not like the final results, so the scenes were interlaced with new footage featuring the tarantula over stuntman Bob Simmons. The noted violence of Dr. No , which also included Bond shooting Dent in cold blood, caused producers to make adaptations to get an "A" rating — allowing minors to enter accompanied by an adult — from the British Board of Film Classification. When he is about to have dinner with Dr. The painting had been stolen from the National Gallery by a year-old amateur thief in London just before filming began. Editor Peter R. Hunt used an innovative editing technique, with extensive use of quick cuts, and employing fast motion and exaggerated sound effects on the action scenes. It was filmed in sepia by putting a pinhole camera inside an. Monty Norman was invited to write the soundtrack because Broccoli liked his work on the theatre production Belle , a musical about murderer Hawley Harvey Crippen. No after Saltzman allowed him to travel along with the crew to Jamaica. John Barry , who would later go on to compose the music for eleven Bond films, arranged the Bond theme but was uncredited—except for the credit of his orchestra playing the final piece. This argument has been the subject of two court cases, the most recent in , which found in favour of Norman. And he did it in two minutes. The music for the opening scene is a calypso version of the nursery rhyme " Three Blind Mice ," with new lyrics to reflect the intentions of the three assassins hired by Dr. As soon as late , United Artists started a marketing campaign to make James Bond a well-known name in North America. Newspapers received a box set of Bond's books, as well as a booklet detailing the Bond character and a picture of Ursula Andress. The campaign also focused on Ian Fleming's name due to the minor success of the books. No had a successful run in Europe, Sean Connery and Terence Young did a cross-country tour of the US in March , which featured screening previews for the film and press conferences. It culminated in a well-publicised premiere in Kingston, where most of the film is set. No had its worldwide premiere at the London Pavilion , on 5 October , expanding to the rest of the United Kingdom three days later. Upon release, Dr. No received a mixed critical reception. Time called Bond a "blithering bounder" and "a great big hairy marshmallow" who "almost always manages to seem slightly silly". No describing it as "a dangerous mixture of violence, vulgarity, sadism and sex", [81] whilst the Kremlin said that Bond was the personification of capitalist evil — both controversies helped increase public awareness of the film and greater cinema attendance. No "crisp and well-tailored" and "a neat and gripping thriller. In the years that followed its release, it became more popular.
