50Years of Bond Films
50 YEARS OF BOND FILMS James Bond, code name 007, is a fictional character created in 1953 by Ian Fleming, who featured him in 12 novels and two short story collections. Six other authors also wrote authorised Bond novels after Fleming's death in 1964. Here is a look at the James Bond phenomenon ahead of Global James Bond Day on Friday, which marks 50 years since the premiere of the first 007 movie Dr. No. The 23rd movie Skyfall will hit theatres a few weeks from now Daniel Craig poses with Berenice Marlohe (left) and WHO PLAYED BOND?

James Bond 007 Analysis Codebook
1 James Bond 007 Analysis Codebook Kimberly A. Neuendorf, Ph.D. Patrika Janstova Sharon Snyder-Suhy Vito Flitt School of Communication, Cleveland State University & Thomas D. Gore, M.A. School of Communication Studies, Kent State University REVISED September 29, 2010 Unit of Data Collection: Each female character depicted in each Bond film who speaks in the film to any other character, or who does not speak but is introduced by another character, or who does not speak but is shown and referred to by another character, or is shown in close-up (i.e., head shot or head and shoulders shot), or engages in any codable sexual behavior, or experiences codable physical harm. When judging whether the female character speaks or is referred to, the coder must be able to both hear the female character and see that character’s mouth moving as she speaks, or must hear her name when she is introduced or referred to. In addition, only females that appear to be over the age of 18 will be coded (no teenagers or children). Other Coding Instructions: Do not code the opening or closing credits. For all coding, use only the information available to you as a viewer (i.e., do not use information you might have as a fan of Bond films, a fan of a particular actor, etc.). Code a female character’s use of weapons/target of weapons only from the point at which she becomes a codable character. That is, if early in the film, a group of undifferentiated (and uncodable) females are carrying guns, and then later one of them becomes codable because she kisses Bond, do not go back and code her earlier gun-carrying behavior. -

The Depiction of Scientists in the Bond Film Franchise Claire Hines
The depiction of scientists in the Bond film franchise Claire Hines The James Bond film franchise began with the release of Dr No (Terence Young, 1962), a film of many notable firsts for the long-running and highly formulaic series. These important firsts include the introduction of Sean Connery as James Bond, the introduction of the criminal organisation SPECTRE and the first major Bond villain, the first of the Bond girls, and a number of key recurring characters. Even though some changes were made to the novel written by Ian Fleming (and published in 1958), the film nevertheless follows the same storyline, where Bond is sent by the British Secret Service to Jamaica and uncovers an evil plot headed by a scientific mastermind. As the first of the Bond films, it is particularly significant that Dr No has a scientist as the very first on-screen Bond villain. Played by Joseph Wiseman, Dr No was based on the literary character from Fleming’s novel, and clearly followed in the tradition of the mad scientist, but also became the prototype for the many Bond villains that followed in the film series (Chapman 2007: 66). According to the stories that circulate about the preparation of Dr No, however, this was almost not the case. In his autobiography Bond producer Albert Broccoli recalls that he and Harry Saltzman rejected an early draft of the screenplay in which the screenwriters had departed from the novel and made the villain a monkey (1998: 158). Broccoli was adamant that the script needed to be rewritten and that Fleming’s Bond villain should be restored to the screenplay (1998: 158). -
Filmed Across the World, Made at Elstree’: How Television Made at Elstree in the 1960S and 70S Brought a Global Experience to the Small Screen
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Hertfordshire Research Archive ‘Filmed Across the World, Made at Elstree’: How television made at Elstree in the 1960s and 70s brought a global experience to the small screen The various studios of Elstree and Borehamwood were, in the 1960s and 70s, home to globetrotting adventurers including The Saint, Department S, Jason King, Danger Man, and The Baron. While many of the shows made featured the globetrotting exploits of their leading characters – Simon Templar, international playboy; Jason King, Interpol agent and novelist; and John Drake, spy and fixer for international organisations – the production crew rarely, if ever, left the confines of the TV sound stages and backlot, except for a brief dash down Borehamwood high street or into rural Hertfordshire. This paper will discuss the operations and technical methodologies used on a weekly basis by production crews in their attempts to recreate Rome, Paris, Madrid and even the Sahara Desert on small budgets, using stock footage and with limited materials. During the 1960s, the studios of Elstree and Borehamwood produced some of the most adventurous and prolific television productions in the UK. Three major studio sites (all of them actually in Borehamwood, not in Elstree) – MGM British Studios, Associated British Productions (ABPC) and ATV Studios – were all producing television content 52 weeks of the year. “Elstree’s” output during this time was at its peak. Production crews at Elstree were able to make shows with an international flavour, while barely leaving the studio. -
