| Summary |
The unlikely story of how Eon Productions-the owners of the Bond franchise-has kept James Bond at the top of the charts for forty-five years when originally only three or four films were planned. Through twenty-one films featuring three M's, two Q's, and six Bonds--from Sean Connery's career-transforming turn in 1962's Dr. No to Daniel Craig's debut in the 2006 blockbuster Casino Royale--the action superstar and perfect English gentleman reigns supreme. |
